path(MESH:Death)
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia in elderly persons. It is a neurodegenerative disease marked by decline in memory and cognitive performance, including deterioration of language as well as defects in visual and motor coordination, and eventual death (for review, see Cummings, 2004). PubMed:19293145
In a double-blind study designed to assess patients survival with mild to moderately severe AD, the long-term treatment (2 years) with galantamine significantly reduced mortality and cognition decline, besides improving daily live activities in mild to moderate AD patients PubMed:26813123
Moreover, mice that display a disruption of CHT1 gene expression exhibit symptoms related to ACh deficit and inevitable death within an hour of birth PubMed:26813123
They have in common a progressive development of severe motor disturbance and dementia leading to death within a fewmonths to a fewyears after diagnosis,which can be years to decades after the initial infection in transmissible cases. PubMed:14556719
In comparison, S(-)-nicotine was shown to be 7 times more toxic than R(+)-nicotine in rats injected intravenously PubMed:28391535

Surprisingly, 66% (187/282) of ABO incompatible transfusions are asymptomatic; however, 67% (19/282) result in death and 27% (76/282) in major morbidities (Bolton-Maggs et al, 2014), including DIC (Goldfinger, 1977). PubMed:25307023
Although acute intravascular haemolysis is a rare complication of transfusion, it is among the most feared transfusion-associated complications, principally because death may rapidly ensue. PubMed:25307023
Thromboembolism is the most common cause of death in PNH patients and accounts for 40–67% of deaths for which the cause is known. PubMed:25307023
Data from several retrospective studies in the preeculizumab era showed that the cause of death was related to thrombosis in 22.2–37.2% of PNH patients. PubMed:29929138
