    • Objectives Sex differences permeate many aspects of dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB), including epidemiology, pathogenesis, disease progression, and symptom manifestation. However, less is known about potential sex differences in patterns of neurodegeneration in DLB. Here, we test whether grey matter networks also differ between female and male DLB patients. To assess the specificity of these sex differences to DLB, we additionally investigate sex differences in healthy controls (HCs). Methods A total of 119 (68.7 ± 8.4 years) male and 45 female (69.9 ± 9.1 years) DLB patients from three European centres and the Mayo Clinic were included in this study. Additionally, we included 119 male and 45 female age-matched HCs from the Mayo Clinic. Grey matter volumes of 58 cortical, subcortical, cerebellar, and pontine brain regions derived from structural magnetic resonance images were corrected for age, intracranial volume, and centre. Sex-specific grey matter networks for DLB patients and HCs were constructed by correlating each pair of brain regions. Network properties of the correlation matrices were compared between sexes and groups. Additional analyses were conducted on W-scored data to identify DLB-specific findings. Results Networks of male HCs and male DLB patients were characterised by a lower nodal strength compared to their respective female counterparts. In comparison to female HCs, the grey matter networks of male HCs showed a higher global efficiency, modularity, and a lower number of modules. None of the global and nodal network measures showed significant sex differences in DLB. Conclusions The disappearance of sex differences in the structural grey matter networks of DLB patients compared to HCs may indicate a sex-dependent network vulnerability to the alpha-synuclein pathology in DLB. Future studies might investigate whether the differences in structural network measures are associated with differences in cognitive scores and clinical symptoms between the sexes.
