Sci Rep 2024; 14:13229. [PMID: 38853162 PMCID: PMC11162996 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-63946-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/07/2023] [Accepted: 06/03/2024] [Indexed: 06/11/2024] Open
Abstract
X-linked dystonia parkinsonism (XDP) is a neurogenetic combined movement disorder involving both parkinsonism and dystonia. Complex, overlapping phenotypes result in difficulties in clinical rating scale assessment. We performed wearable sensor-based analyses in XDP participants to quantitatively characterize disease phenomenology as a potential clinical trial endpoint. Wearable sensor data was collected from 10 symptomatic XDP patients and 3 healthy controls during a standardized examination. Disease severity was assessed with the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale Part 3 (MDS-UPDRS) and Burke-Fahn-Marsden dystonia scale (BFM). We collected sensor data during the performance of specific MDS-UPDRS/BFM upper- and lower-limb motor tasks, and derived data features suitable to estimate clinical scores using machine learning (ML). XDP patients were at varying stages of disease and clinical severity. ML-based algorithms estimated MDS-UPDRS scores (parkinsonism) and dystonia-specific data features with a high degree of accuracy. Gait spatio-temporal parameters had high discriminatory power in differentiating XDP patients with different MDS-UPDRS scores from controls, XDP freezing of gait, and dystonic/non-dystonic gait. These analyses suggest the feasibility of using wearable sensor data for deriving reliable clinical score estimates associated with both parkinsonian and dystonic features in a complex, combined movement disorder and the utility of motion sensors in quantifying clinical examination.

Alonto AHD, Jamora RDG. A scoping review on the diagnosis and treatment of X-linked dystonia-parkinsonism. Parkinsonism Relat Disord 2024; 119:105949. [PMID: 38072720 DOI: 10.1016/j.parkreldis.2023.105949] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/11/2023] [Revised: 11/25/2023] [Accepted: 11/26/2023] [Indexed: 01/21/2024]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION X-linked dystonia-parkinsonism (XDP) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that has been studied well in recent years. OBJECTIVES This scoping review aimed to describe the current state of knowledge about the diagnosis and treatment of XDP, to provide clinicians with a concise and up-to-date overview. METHODS We conducted a scoping review of pertinent literature on the diagnosis and treatment of XDP using Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews guidelines. RESULTS There were 24 articles on diagnostic methods and 20 articles on therapeutic interventions for XDP, with 7 review articles describing both. The detection of the SVA retrotransposon insertion within the TAF1 gene is confirmatory for XDP. Oral medications are marginally effective. Chemodenervation with botulinum toxin is an effective treatment. Pallidal deep brain stimulation (DBS) has been shown to provide significant improvement in the dystonia and quality of life of patients with XDP for a longer time. A less invasive surgical option is the transcranial magnetic resonance-guided focused ultrasound (tcMRgFUS), which has shown promising effects with the limited number of case reports available. CONCLUSION XDP is a geneti disorder characterized by striatal symptoms and pathology on neuroimaging. No effective oral medications are available for the management of XDP. The use of botulinum toxin is limited by its cost and duration of effects. As of now, pallidal DBS is deemed to be the best option. Another promising option is the tcMRgFUS but still has limited studies on its safety and efficacy in XDP.

Abstract
Clinical case studies and reporting are important to the discovery of new disorders and the advancement of medical sciences. Both clinicians and basic scientists play equally important roles leading to treatment discoveries for both cures and symptoms. In the field of movement disorders, exceptional observation of patients from clinicians is imperative, not just for phenomenology but also for the variable occurrences of these disorders, along with other signs and symptoms, throughout the day and the disease course. The Movement Disorders in Asia Task Force (TF) was formed to help enhance and promote collaboration and research on movement disorders within the region. As a start, the TF has reviewed the original studies of the movement disorders that were preliminarily described in the region. These include nine disorders that were first described in Asia: Segawa disease, PARK-Parkin, X-linked dystonia-parkinsonism, dentatorubral-pallidoluysian atrophy, Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome, benign adult familial myoclonic epilepsy, Kufor-Rakeb disease, tremulous dystonia associated with mutation of the calmodulin-binding transcription activator 2 gene, and paroxysmal kinesigenic dyskinesia. We hope that the information provided will honor the original researchers and help us learn and understand how earlier neurologists and basic scientists together discovered new disorders and made advances in the field, which impact us all to this day.

Abstract
Transcranial magnetic resonance-guided focused ultrasound (MRgFUS) is a noninvasive method for controlling tremor and has recently been used in patients with X-linked dystonia-parkinsonism (XDP). This study aims to determine the improvement in dystonia and parkinsonism in patients with XDP after MRgFUS pallidothalamic tractotomy. This prospective study will be conducted at the Philippine General Hospital, University of the Philippines Manila. The primary outcome measure is the change in the pre- and post-treatment XDP-Movement Disorder Society of the Philippines Scale scores. In addition, demographic and clinical data will be collected, including the Burke-Fahn-Marsden Dystonia Rating Scale, Part III of the Movement Disorder Society-Unified Parkinson's disease Rating Scale score, XDP clinical and functional stage, the five-level EuroQol five-dimensional questionnaire, Montreal Cognitive Assessment scores, MRgFUS treatment parameters, and adverse events. Patients will be assessed within 24 hours of treatment, then at 2 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, 9 months, and 12 months post-treatment. This protocol was approved by the University of the Philippines Manila Research Ethics Board (UPMREB 2022-0271-01). Data collection began in January 2023. This protocol has been registered with ClinicalTrials.gov: Trial Registration number: NCT05592028.

Abstract
X-linked dystonia parkinsonism (XDP) is a rare X-linked recessive degenerative movement disorder that only affects Filipino descent, predominantly males. Its underlying cause is associated with the genetic alterations in the TAF1/DYT3 multiple transcription system. SINE-VNTR-Alu (SVA) retrotransposon insertion was suggested to be the responsible genetic mutation. Clinically, it initially presents as focal dystonia and generalizes within years. Parkinsonism arises years later and coexists with dystonia. Nonmotor symptoms like cognitive impairment and mood disorders are also common among XDP patients. XDP diagnosis relies on clinical history and physical examination. On imaging, abnormalities of the striatum, such as atrophy, are widely seen and can explain the clinical presentations with a three-model pathway of the striatum. Treatments aim for symptomatic relief of dystonia and parkinsonism and to prevent complications. Oral medications, chemo-denervation, and surgery are used in XDP patients. This review summarizes the currently important information regarding XDP, providing a synoptic overview and understanding of XDP for future studies.
