Expert Opin Pharmacother 2023; 24:1725-1736. [PMID: 37561080 DOI: 10.1080/14656566.2023.2242786] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/10/2023] [Accepted: 07/27/2023] [Indexed: 08/11/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION The heterogeneity of Parkinson's disease (PD) is evident from descriptions of non-motor (NMS) subtypes and Park Sleep, originally identified by Sauerbier et al. 2016, is one such clinical subtype associated with the predominant clinical presentation of sleep dysfunctions including excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS), along with insomnia. AREAS COVERED A literature search was conducted using the PubMed, Medline, Embase, and Web of Science databases, accessed between 1 February 2023 and 28 March 2023. In this review, we describe the clinical subtype of Park Sleep and related 'tests' ranging from polysomnography to investigational neuromelanin MRI brain scans and some tissue-based biological markers. EXPERT OPINION Cholinergic, noradrenergic, and serotonergic systems are dominantly affected in PD. Park Sleep subtype is hypothesized to be associated primarily with serotonergic deficit, clinically manifesting as somnolence and narcoleptic events (sleep attacks), with or without rapid eye movement behavior disorder (RBD). In clinic, Park Sleep recognition may drive lifestyle changes (e.g. driving) along with therapy adjustments as Park Sleep patients may be sensitive to dopamine D3 active agonists, such as ropinirole and pramipexole. Specific dashboard scores based personalized management options need to be implemented and include pharmacological, non-pharmacological, and lifestyle linked advice.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The purpose is to review the results and impact of recent studies for current and future treatment of both motor and non-motor symptoms in Parkinson's disease (PD). RECENT FINDINGS New formulations of levodopa further optimize motor fluctuations, allowing for more on-time and less dyskinesia. On demand apomorphine continues to showcase itself as an effective and tolerable tool for treating motor off-periods. Though there are no clear treatment guidelines for PD-related constipation and sleep related disorders, several new agents for these non-motor symptoms show promising preliminary data. Expiratory muscle strength training may represent a useful and cost-effective strategy to alleviate oropharyngeal dysphagia associated with PD. There is evidence to suggest that the use of shorter pulse width and directional deep brain stimulation leads can results in a greater therapeutic window. SUMMARY Though no interventions currently exist to significantly modify the disease progression of PD, new studies continue to give insight into optimal symptomatic management. Clinicians should be familiar with expanding the repertoire of tools available to treat the diverse range of symptoms and challenges associated with PD.

Item Selection for a New Health-Related Quality of Life Measure for Parkinson's Disease: The Preference-Based Parkinson's Disease Index (PB-PDI). Neurol Res Int 2023; 2023:6559857. [PMID: 36711119 PMCID: PMC9876679 DOI: 10.1155/2023/6559857] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/26/2022] [Revised: 12/23/2022] [Accepted: 12/24/2022] [Indexed: 01/19/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative condition, predominantly affecting older adults. Preference-based measures (PBMs) can be used to make decisions about the cost-utility of different treatments. There are currently no PBMs for health-related quality of life (HRQoL) for PD. A previous study identified important health domains for individuals with PD and developed an item pool from existing measures per domain. The current study aims to contribute to the development of a new disease-specific PBM of HRQoL for PD by reducing the current pool of items according to the preferences of individuals with PD. Methods Fifty-three participants completed a visual analogue scale (VAS) of self-perceived health, the prototype PBM measure, and an item importance rating. To reduce the item pool, the following were calculated: (1) inter-item correlations; (2) impact of each item based on item performance and importance rating; (3) directionality of response options by comparing the VAS scores against each item. Results Participants (male = 54.7%, age = 60.0 ± 10.2) had a median Hoehn and Yahr score of 2.5 (interquartile range = 1). Items supported for inclusion by this analysis were sleep, fatigue, tremor, mood, walking, memory, and dexterity. Items demonstrating a logical decrease in VAS score with each increasing severity level were sleep, memory, tremor, fatigue, and mood. Conclusion This PBM will be critical for informing decisions about the cost-utility of PD treatments, guiding the resource allocation within our healthcare system. Future research will include cognitive debriefing with individuals with PD to refine item response options.

Parkinsonian daytime sleep-wake classification using deep brain stimulation lead recordings. Neurobiol Dis 2023; 176:105963.

Abstract
Excessive daytime sleepiness is a recognized non-motor symptom that adversely impacts the quality of life of people with Parkinson's disease (PD), yet effective treatment options remain limited. Deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the subthalamic nucleus (STN) is an effective treatment for PD motor signs. Reliable daytime sleep-wake classification using local field potentials (LFPs) recorded from DBS leads implanted in STN can inform the development of closed-loop DBS approaches for prompt detection and disruption of sleep-related neural oscillations. We performed STN DBS lead recordings in three nonhuman primates rendered parkinsonian by administrating neurotoxin 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP). Reference sleep-wake states were determined on a second-by-second basis by video monitoring of eyes (eyes-open, wake and eyes-closed, sleep). The spectral power in delta (1-4 Hz), theta (4-8 Hz), low-beta (8-20 Hz), high-beta (20-35 Hz), gamma (35-90 Hz), and high-frequency (200-400 Hz) bands were extracted from each wake and sleep epochs for training (70% data) and testing (30% data) a support vector machines classifier for each subject independently. The spectral features yielded reasonable daytime sleep-wake classification (sensitivity: 90.68 ± 1.28; specificity: 88.16 ± 1.08; accuracy: 89.42 ± 0.68; positive predictive value; 88.70 ± 0.89, n = 3). Our findings support the plausibility of monitoring daytime sleep-wake states using DBS lead recordings. These results could have future clinical implications in informing the development of closed-loop DBS approaches for automatic detection and disruption of sleep-related neural oscillations in people with PD to promote wakefulness.

Effects of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation over right dorsolateral prefrontal cortex on excessive daytime sleepiness in patients with Parkinson's disease. Sleep Med 2022; 100:133-138. [PMID: 36049407 DOI: 10.1016/j.sleep.2022.08.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/17/2022] [Revised: 07/14/2022] [Accepted: 08/03/2022] [Indexed: 01/12/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) is a common sleep disorder in Parkinson's disease (PD), which seriously affects patients' quality of life. Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) can be used as an add-on therapy to a variety of non-motor symptoms of PD. However, little is known on the treatment of EDS in PD patients. OBJECTIVE To explore the effects of low frequency rTMS over right dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) in the treatment of EDS in PD. METHODS We conducted a sham-controlled, parallel study including 25 individuals of PD with possible EDS based on Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS ≥8 points) and randomly divided them into active group (n = 15) and sham group (n = 10). 1 Hz rTMS was administrated over right DLPFC for 10 consecutive days. In the active group, we further classified them into responsive group and non-responsive group according to change of ESS score in comparison with baseline. Clinical assessments on motor and non-motor symptoms were completed at baseline, at the end of treatment and 1 month after treatment. RESULTS Compared to baseline, active group showed significant improvement on ESS score 10 days and 1 month after treatment (P < 0.05 for both). The percentage change of ESS score was positively related to disease duration during follow-up. No significant changes were observed on ESS score change in the sham group. Further analysis of individuals in the active group showed that, relative to those with non-response to rTMS, individuals with therapeutic response exhibited longer disease duration and lower baseline levodopa equivalent dose. CONCLUSION Low frequency rTMS over right DLPFC may improve symptoms of EDS in PD.

Abstract
Excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) is classified as a neurofunctional disorder that
manifests as uncontrolled sleeping propensity in the daytime. Currently, consistent and
effective therapeutic approaches for EDS are lacking. Stellate ganglion block (SGB) has a
clear effect in various complicated pain syndromes, vascular insufficiency, hyperhidrosis,
and posttraumatic stress syndrome. We report an EDS case that involved a patient who
recovered after several sessions of SGB.

Abstract
Non-motor symptoms (NMSs) are highly prevalent throughout the course of Parkinson's disease (PD). Pain, autonomic dysfunction and sleep disturbances remain at the forefront of the most common NMSs; their treatment is challenging and their effect on the quality of life of both patients and caregivers detrimental. Yet, the landscape of clinical trials in PD is still dominated by therapeutic strategies seeking to ameliorate motor symptoms; subsequently, effective strategies to successfully treat NMSs remain a huge unmet need. Wider awareness among industry and researchers is thus essential to give rise to development and delivery of high-quality, large-scale clinical trials in enriched populations of patients with PD-related pain, autonomic dysfunction and sleep. In this review, we discuss recent developments in the field of pharmacological treatment strategies designed or re-purposed to target three key NMSs: pain, autonomic dysfunction and sleep disturbances. We focus on emerging evidence from recent clinical trials and outline some exciting and intriguing findings that call for further investigations.

Abstract
Aim: The objective of this narrative review was to describe the versatile links between mental status and sleep in patients with Parkinson's disease. Methods: We searched randomized controlled studies, observational studies, meta-analyses, systematic reviews, and case reports written in English in PubMed during 2015 - 2021. Additionally, to ensure the completeness of the review, a second, more in-depth literature search was performed using the same electronic database with the search inquiries of increased specificity. Results: The information on pathophysiology, epidemiology, clinical features and risk factors was extracted and formed the basis for this review. Despite how widespread sleep disorders in Parkinson's disease are, there is no systematic information about their association with neuropsychiatric symptoms, such as depression, anxiety, impulse control disorders, apathy, cognitive impairment and psychosis. In this review, we described relationships between these non-motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease, their timeline occurrence, gap in knowledge and perspectives for further research. We suppose that early treatment of sleep disorders in patients with Parkinson's disease can reduce the incidence and extent of neuropsychiatric symptoms. Conclusion: We have demonstrated multiple, multidirectional relationships between sleep disorders and neuropsychiatric symptoms. However, some of them remain unexplored. The described knowledge can be applied to further study the possibility of influencing neuropsychiatric symptoms through the correction of sleep disorders in patients with different stages of Parkinson's disease.

Abstract
Parkinson's disease (PD) is defined by its motor symptoms rigidity, tremor, and akinesia. However, non-motor symptoms, particularly autonomic disorders and sleep disturbances, occur frequently in PD causing equivalent or even greater discomfort than motor symptoms effectively decreasing quality of life in patients and caregivers. Most common sleep disturbances in PD are insomnia, sleep disordered breathing, excessive daytime sleepiness, REM sleep behavior disorder, and sleep-related movement disorders such as restless legs syndrome. Despite their high prevalence, therapeutic options in the in- and outpatient setting are limited, partly due to lack of scientific evidence. The importance of sleep disturbances in neurodegenerative diseases has been further emphasized by recent evidence indicating a bidirectional relationship between neurodegeneration and sleep. A more profound insight into the underlying pathophysiological mechanisms intertwining sleep and neurodegeneration might lead to unique and individually tailored disease modifying or even neuroprotective therapeutic options in the long run. Therefore, current evidence concerning the management of sleep disturbances in PD will be discussed with the aim of providing a substantiated scaffolding for clinical decisions in long-term PD therapy.

Abstract
Sleep disturbances are among the common nonmotor symptoms in patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD). Sleep can be disrupted by nocturnal motor and nonmotor symptoms and other comorbid sleep disorders. Rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (RBD) causes sleep-related injury, has important clinical implications as a harbinger of PD and predicts a progressive clinical phenotype. Restless legs syndrome (RLS) and its related symptoms can impair sleep initiation. Excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) is a refractory problem affecting patients’ daytime activities. In particular, during the COVID-19 era, special attention should be paid to monitoring sleep problems, as infection-prevention procedures for COVID-19 can affect patients’ motor symptoms, psychiatric symptoms and sleep. Therefore, screening for and managing sleep problems is important in clinical practice, and the maintenance of good sleep conditions may improve the quality of life of PD patients. This narrative review focused on the literature published in the past 10 years, providing a current update of various sleep disturbances in PD patients and their management, including RBD, RLS, EDS, sleep apnea and circadian abnormalities.

Abstract
Hypocretin-1 and 2 (or orexin A and B) are neuropeptides exclusively produced by a group of neurons in the lateral and dorsomedial hypothalamus that project throughout the brain. In accordance with this, the two different hypocretin receptors are also found throughout the brain. The hypocretin system is mainly involved in sleep-wake regulation, but also in reward mechanisms, food intake and metabolism, autonomic regulation including thermoregulation, and pain. The disorder most strongly linked to the hypocretin system is the primary sleep disorder narcolepsy type 1 caused by a lack of hypocretin signaling, which is most likely due to an autoimmune process targeting the hypocretin-producing neurons. However, the hypocretin system may also be affected, but to a lesser extent and less specifically, in various other neurological disorders. Examples are neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's, Huntington's and Parkinson's disease, immune-mediated disorders such as multiple sclerosis, neuromyelitis optica, and anti-Ma2 encephalitis, and genetic disorders such as type 1 diabetus mellitus and Prader-Willi Syndrome. A partial hypocretin deficiency may contribute to the sleep features of these disorders.

Abstract
Sleep and circadian rhythm disturbances are central features of many movement disorders, exacerbating motor and non-motor symptoms and impairing quality of life. Understanding these disturbances to sleep is clinically important and may further our understanding of the underlying movement disorder. This review evaluates the current anatomical and neurochemical understanding of normal sleep and the recognised primary sleep disorders. In addition, we undertook a systematic review of the evidence for disruption to sleep across multiple movement disorders. Rapid eye movement sleep behaviour disorder has emerged as the most reliable prodromal biomarker for the alpha synucleinopathies, including Parkinson's disease and multiple system atrophy, often preceding motor symptom onset by several years. Abnormal sleep has also been described for many other movement disorders, but further evidence is needed to determine whether this is a primary or secondary phenotypic component of the underlying condition. Medication used in the treatment of motor symptoms also affects sleep and can aggravate or cause certain sleep disorders. Within the context of movement disorders, there is also some suggestion of a shared underlying mechanism for motor and sleep pathophysiology, with evidence implicating thalamic and brainstem structures and monoaminergic neurotransmission. This review highlights the need for an understanding of normal and abnormal sleep within the movement disorder clinic, an ability to screen for specific causes of poor sleep and to treat sleep disturbance to improve quality of life. Key sleep disorders also act as important biomarkers and have implications in diagnosis, prognosis and the development of future therapies.

Abstract
Background Solriamfetol is approved (US and EU) for excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) in narcolepsy and obstructive sleep apnea. Objectives Evaluate solriamfetol safety/efficacy for EDS in Parkinson's disease (PD). Methods Phase 2, double‐blind, 4‐week, crossover trial: adults with PD and EDS were randomized to sequence A (placebo, solriamfetol 75, 150, 300 mg/d), B (solriamfetol 75, 150, 300 mg/d, placebo), or C (placebo). Outcomes (safety/tolerability [primary]; Epworth Sleepiness Scale [ESS]; Maintenance of Wakefulness Test [MWT]) were assessed weekly. P values are nominal. Results Common adverse events (n = 66): nausea (10.7%), dizziness (7.1%), dry mouth (7.1%), headache (7.1%), anxiety (5.4%), constipation (5.4%), dyspepsia (5.4%). ESS decreased both placebo (−4.78) and solriamfetol (−4.82 to −5.72; P > 0.05). MWT improved dose‐dependently with solriamfetol, increasing by 5.05 minutes with 300 mg relative to placebo (P = 0.0098). Conclusions Safety/tolerability was consistent with solriamfetol's known profile. There were no significant improvements on ESS; MWT results suggest possible benefit with solriamfetol in PD. © 2021 The Authors.

Abstract
Parkinson disease (PD) is a debilitating neurological condition that includes both motor symptoms and nonmotor symptoms (NMS). Psychiatric complaints comprise NMS and are collectively referred to as neuropsychiatric manifestations. Common findings include atypical depressive symptoms, anxiety, psychosis, impulse control disorder, deterioration of cognition, and sleep disturbances. Quality of life (QoL) of patients suffering from NMS is greatly impacted and many times can be more debilitating than motor symptoms of PD. We expand on knowledge gained from treatment models within a comprehensive care model that incorporates multidisciplinary specialists working alongside psychiatrists to treat PD. Insight into background, clinical presentations, and treatment options for patients suffering from neuropsychiatric manifestations of PD are discussed. Identifying symptoms early can help improve QoL, provide early symptom relief, and can assist tailoring treatment plans that limit neuropsychiatric manifestations.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) affects a large percentage of Parkinson's disease (PD) patients, and it is enhanced by dopamine agonist drugs. Currently, there is no treatment of choice for EDS in PD. Our aim was to check the clinical impression that some patients who were given selegiline, a selective inhibitor of monoamine oxidase B, experienced an improvement in their daytime somnolence. METHODS In the present study, we retrospectively identified 45 Parkinson's disease patients (21 females and 24 males) among those referred to the PD Center in Varese that (a) showed excessive daytime sleepiness, usually developed after the introduction of a dopamine agonist, (b) were given selegiline 10 mg to improve their treatment schedule independently of excessive sleepiness, and (c) in whom the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) and the Parkinson's Disease Sleep Scale (PDSS) scores were available both before and 3 months after the introduction of selegiline. RESULTS We compared the corresponding scores (ESS, PDSS, and UPDRS III) evaluated before and 3 months after the introduction of selegiline by the nonparametric Mann-Whitney U test: The differences showed a statistically significant improvement of somnolence but no change in the UPDRS III scores. CONCLUSION Despite some limitations, our data suggest that selegiline may be a valuable add-on therapy in PD patients to reduce their daytime somnolence.

Abstract
Sleep disorders in Parkinson disease have attracted the attention of clinicians and researchers for decades. Recently, major advances in their clinical characterization, polysomnographic description, pathophysiologic understanding, and treatment took place. Parkinson disease encompasses the whole spectrum of sleep medicine: every category of sleep disorder can be observed in these patients. Video polysomnography frequently is indicated, sometimes followed by multiple sleep latency/maintenance of wakefulness tests. Additional studies may include actigraphy, cardiorespiratory polygraphy, and dim light melatonin assessment. Treatment needs to be specific to the underlying sleep disorder and can include medications and nondrug treatments, for example, behavioral therapy and light therapy.

Abstract
The emerging science of fatigue has soundly endorsed the need for its unified definition, shared terminology and increased recognition in neurological illnesses. Nevertheless, the real impact of fatigue remains under-recognized. Fatigue describes a sense of tiredness, lack of energy or need for increased effort often perceived as overwhelming, pervasive, and disabling. It is a common feature of chronic medical conditions and neurological diseases, including Parkinson's disease (PD) and other hypokinetic, hyperkinetic, and functional movement disorders (FMD). While there is solid evidence for the burden of fatigue in PD, knowledge of fatigue in other movement disorders (MDS) is still limited. Lack of consensus definition, rigorous measures and the high prevalence of potential confounders such as apathy, depression and sleepiness are the main obstacles in studying fatigue in MDS. This review of the prevalence, impact, and clinical correlates of fatigue in common MDS summarizes current hypotheses for the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying fatigue and gives a brief overview of treatment options. Fatigue is a prevalent, disabling, primary non-motor symptom (NMS) in MDS, including atypical and secondary parkinsonisms, dystonia, essential tremor (ET) and a hallmark feature of FMD. We report the hypothesis that fatigue is a perceptual disorder of the sensorimotor system. Given the relevance of this burdensome symptom, fatigue deserves greater clinical and research attention to better understand its manifestation and pathophysiology and to improve diagnosis and treatment.

Abstract
The role of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and arachidonic acid (AA) in neurogenesis and brain development throughout the life cycle is fundamental. DHA and AA are long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LCPUFA) vital for many human physiological processes, such as signaling pathways, gene expression, structure and function of membranes, among others. DHA and AA are deposited into the lipids of cell membranes that form the gray matter representing approximately 25% of the total content of brain fatty acids. Both fatty acids have effects on neuronal growth and differentiation through the modulation of the physical properties of neuronal membranes, signal transduction associated with G proteins, and gene expression. DHA and AA have a relevant role in neuroprotection against neurodegenerative pathologies such as Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease, which are associated with characteristic pathological expressions as mitochondrial dysfunction, neuroinflammation, and oxidative stress. The present review analyzes the neuroprotective role of DHA and AA in the extreme stages of life, emphasizing the importance of these LCPUFA during the first year of life and in the developing/prevention of neurodegenerative diseases associated with aging.

Abstract
Insomnia is defined as difficulties of initiating and maintaining sleep, early awakening and poor subjective sleep quality despite adequate opportunity and circumstances for sleep with impairment of daytime performance. These components of insomnia - namely persistent sleep difficulties despite of adequate sleep opportunity resulting in daytime dysfunction - appear secondary or co-morbid to neurological diseases. Comorbid insomnia originates from neurodegenerative, inflammatory, traumatic or ischemic changes in sleep regulating brainstem and hypothalamic nuclei with consecutive changes of neurotransmitters. Symptoms of neurological disorders (i.e motor deficits), co-morbidities (i.e. pain, depression, anxiety) and some disease-specific pharmaceuticals may cause insomnia and/or other sleep problems.This guideline focuses on insomnias in headaches, neurodegenerative movement disorders, multiple sclerosis, traumatic brain injury, epilepsies, stroke, neuromuscular disease and dementia.The most important new recommendations are: Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBTi) is recommended to treat acute and chronic insomnia in headache patients. Insomnia is one of the most frequent sleep complaints in neurodegenerative movement disorders. Patients may benefit from CBTi, antidepressants (trazodone, doxepin), melatonin and gaba-agonists. Insomnia is a frequent precursor of MS symptoms by up to 10 years. CBTi is recommended in patients with MS, traumatic brain injury and. Melatonin may improve insomnia symptoms in children with epilepsies. Patients with insomnia after stroke can be treated with benzodiazepine receptor agonists and sedating antidepressants. For patients with dementia suffering from insomnia trazodone, light therapy and physical exercise are recommended.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To provide a robust estimate of the prevalence of excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) and its clinical correlates in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). METHOD We searched the PubMed and Embase databases for studies investigating the prevalence and clinical correlates of EDS from inception to March 01, 2020. Quality assessment was performed using the Newcastle-Ottawa quality assessment scale. Random-effects models were set to pool the risk estimates. Sensitivity analyses were performed to evaluate the stability of the outcomes. RESULTS After screening 1367 titles and abstracts, 59 studies involving 12,439 participants were included in the systematic review and meta-analysis. The pooled prevalence of EDS in PD was 35.1%, which was higher in South America, North America, Europe, and Australia than that in Asia. Compared to patients without EDS, patients with EDS had higher effect size on disease duration (0.76 years; 95% CI: 0.16-1.37, I2 = 68.8%), Hoehn and Yahr (HY) stage (0.23 grade; 95% CI: 0.11-0.34, I2 = 69.1%), Unified PD Rating Scale (UPDRS)-III (3.02 points; 95% CI: 1.53-4.51, I2: 61.2%), levodopa equivalent daily dose (LEDD) (141.46 mg; 95% CI: 64.17-218.77, I2 = 86.1%), depression symptoms (Hedges' g = 0.35; 95% CI: 0.15-0.55, I2 = 72.0%) and male sex (OR = 1.50; 95% CI: 1.30-1.72, I2 = 0). CONCLUSION Our results showed that approximately one-third of patients with PD had EDS, which may be associated with the severity of the disease, depression, and male sex, or a combination of neurodegeneration and medication.

Abstract
ABSRACT Neuroendocrine and neurometabolic disorders, although occasionally noted in Parkinson's disease (PD), existed in the shadow of motor and non-motor symptoms (hypokinesia, rigidity, tremor, depression, constipation, etc.). In recent years, they are increasingly being diagnosed and are the subject of special research. These include, in particular, disorders of carbohydrate metabolism, changes in body weight, metabolic disorders in bone tissue, secretion, as well as the secretion of neurohormones, such as melatonin. They are associated with other non-motor symptoms, negatively affect patients' general condition and quality of life, but can be treatable. At the same time, treatment of neuroendocrine and neurometabolic disorders can favorably influence the rate of progression of the disease as a whole. This review discusses the pathophysiological mechanisms, clinical consequences, as well as pharmacological and non-pharmacological approaches to the treatment of neuroendocrine and neurometabolic disorders arising in PD, which have been relatively rarely covered in literature.

Abstract
Objectives: This systematic review synthesizes the most recent literature on neuropsychological deficits in adults with Parkinson's disease who experience excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS). Confounds and methodological limitations are explored. A framework entitled the Cascade Model of Excessive Daytime Sleepiness (CMEDS) is proposed to explain the role of EDS in contributing to cognitive impairment for patients with Parkinson's disease.Method: Systematic search through PubMed, PsychInfo and citation records. In total, 175 articles were screened for possible inclusion. Eight studies were included, encompassing 1373 patients with Parkinson's disease - 442 of whom had Parkinson's disease with EDS.Results: For Parkinson's disease patients with EDS, global deficits, executive dysfunction and deficits in processing speed were found beyond the typical cognitive phenotype of patients without EDS. Language skills, memory and visuospatial skills appeared to be similar between those with and without EDS. In untreated, de novo, patients, there were no cognitive differences between the EDS groups.Conclusion: This review suggests that Parkinson's disease patients suffering from EDS may have additional cognitive deficits globally, in executive control, and in processing speed. As suggested by the CMEDS framework, the impact of EDS on cognition may be related to Parkinson's disease pathology, comorbidities and medication use.

Abstract
There is increasing interest in the effects of sleep and sleep disturbances on the brain, particularly in relation to aging and neurodegenerative processes. Parkinson disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder, with growing prevalence worldwide. Sleep disorders, including sleep-disordered breathing (SDB), are among the most frequent non-motor manifestations of PD. They can substantially impair quality of life and possibly affect the course of the disease. This article reviews the etiology, implications, and management of sleep disturbances in PD, such as excessive daytime sleepiness, insomnia, restless legs syndrome, rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder, and SDB. Also briefly explored is the potential role of sleep disorders, including SDB, in the progression of neurodegeneration.

Abstract
Objective To investigate the efficacy of levodopa/carbidopa/entacapone (LCE) at bedtime for treating sleep disturbance in patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD) with motor fluctuations. Methods Participants included 128 PD patients with motor fluctuations. All patients were assessed for motor, nonmotor, and sleep-specific symptoms using the United Parkinson’s Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS), the Korean version of the Nonmotor Symptom Scale, the Parkinson’s Disease Sleep Scale (PDSS), the Epworth Sleepiness Scale, and the Rapid Eye Movement Sleep Behavior Disorder Screening Questionnaire (RBDSQ). We compared the baseline characteristics of patients with sleep disturbance (PDSS score < 120) and those without sleep disturbance (PDSS score ≥ 120). Thirty-nine patients with sleep disturbance who agreed to take LCE at bedtime completed 3-month follow-ups. We analyzed changes in the scores of motor, nonmotor, and sleep symptom scales over the 3 months. Results PD patients with sleep disturbance were at more advanced disease stages and had more severe motor, nonmotor, and sleep symptoms than those without sleep disturbance. Patients who took LCE at night showed improvements in motor (UPDRS part III, p = 0.007) and sleep symptoms (total PDSS, p < 0.001). Sleep features that benefitted from LCE included not only nocturnal motor components but also insomnia (PDSS items 2 and 3, p = 0.005 and p < 0.001) and rapid eye movement behavior disorder (PDSS item 6, p = 0.002; and RBDSQ, p < 0.001). Conclusion The use of LCE at bedtime may be a useful treatment for sleep disturbance in advanced PD patients with motor fluctuations.

Abstract
Huntington's disease (HD) is characterised by progressive symptoms including cognitive deficits and sleep/wake disturbances reflected in an abnormal electroencephalography (EEG). Modafinil, a wake-promoting and cognitive-enhancing drug, has been considered as a treatment for HD. We used HD (R6/2) mice to investigate the potential for using modafinil to treat sleep-wake disturbance in HD. R6/2 mice show sleep-wake and EEG changes similar to those seen in HD patients, with increased rapid eye movement sleep (REMS), decreased wakefulness/increased non-REMS (NREMS), and pathological changes in EEG spectra, particularly an increase in gamma power. We recorded EEG from R6/2 and wild-type mice treated with modafinil acutely (with single doses between 25 and 100 mg/kg; at 12 and 16 weeks of age), or chronically (64 mg/kg modafinil/day from 6 to 15 weeks). Acutely, modafinil increased wakefulness in R6/2 mice and restored NREMS to wild-type levels at 12 weeks. It also suppressed the pathologically increased REMS. This was accompanied by decreased delta power, increased peak frequency of theta, and increased gamma power. At 16 weeks, acute modafinil also restored wakefulness and NREMS to wild-type levels. However, whilst REMS decreased, it did not return to normal levels. By contrast, in the chronic treatment group, modafinil-induced wakefulness was maintained at 15 weeks (after 9 weeks of treatment). Interestingly, chronic modafinil also caused widespread suppression of power across the EEG spectra, including a reduction in gamma that increases pathologically in R6/2 mice. The complex EEG effects of modafinil in R6/2 mice should provide a baseline for further studies to investigate the translatability of these result to clinical practice.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES A major challenge in treating insomnia is to find effective medicines with fewer side effects. Activation of G-protein-gated inward rectifying K+ channels (GIRKs) by GABAB agonists baclofen or γ-hydroxybutyric acid (GHB) promotes nonrapid eye movement (NREM) sleep and consolidates sleep. However, baclofen has poor brain penetration, GHB possesses abuse liability, and in rodents both drugs cause spike-wave discharges (SWDs), an absence seizure activity. We tested the hypothesis that direct GIRK activation promotes sleep without inducing SWD using ML297, a potent and selective GIRK activator. METHODS Whole-cell patch-clamp recordings from hypocretin/orexin or hippocampal neurons in mouse brain slices were made to study neuronal excitability and synaptic activity; spontaneous activity, locomotion, contextual and tone-conditioned memory, and novel object recognition were assessed. Electroencephalogram/electromyogram (EEG/EMG) recordings were used to study GIRK modulation of sleep. RESULTS ML297, like baclofen, caused membrane hyperpolarization, decreased input resistance, and blockade of spontaneous action potentials. Unlike baclofen, ML297 (5-10 µM) did not cause significant depression of postsynaptic excitatory and inhibitory currents (EPSCs-IPSCs), indicating preferential postsynaptic inhibition. ML297 (30 mg/kg, i.p.) inhibited wake activity and locomotion, and preferentially increased NREM sleep without altering EEG delta power, REM sleep, inducing SWDs, or impairing conditioned memory and novel object recognition. CONCLUSIONS This study finds that direct activation of neuronal GIRK channels modulates postsynaptic membrane excitability and prolongs NREM sleep without changing sleep intensity, inducing SWDs, or impairing memory in rodents. These results suggest that direct GIRK activation with a selective compound may present an innovative approach for the treatment of chronic insomnia.

Abstract
OBJECT Excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) is common in Parkinson disease (PD), but the neural basis of EDS in PD is unclear. We aim to analyze the neural activity changes in PD-related EDS. METHODS In the present study, 38 PD patients and 19 healthy controls underwent clinical assessments and resting state functional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) at 3T. Patients were further classified into PD patients with EDS (n = 17) and PD patients without EDS (n = 21), according to the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) cutoff score with greater than 10 or less than 3. We evaluated all patients using PD-related motor and non-motor clinical scales. An analysis of covariance and post hoc two-sample t-tests were performed to examine between-groups differences of the amplitude of low-frequency fluctuations (ALFF) and functional connectivity (FC). RESULTS We found that, all PD-EDS subjects in our study were male. Compared with the control subjects, PD patients with EDS had decreased ALFF in the Pons and increased ALFF in the Frontal_Mid_Orb_L (p < 0.01, corrected). Moreover, PD patients with EDS showed decreased ALFF in the left posterior cingulate cortex (PCC) relative to PD without EDS, which was negatively correlated with the ESS score (p < 0.001). After that, the FC analysis with the left PCC region of interest showed reduced FC of the right PCC and right precuneus in PD with EDS compared with PD without EDS (p < 0.01, corrected). CONCLUSION We hypothesized the wake-promoting pathways and the default mode network dysfunction underlying the EDS in male PD patients.

Abstract
Affective disorders, cognitive decline, and psychosis have long been recognized as common in Parkinson disease (PD), and other psychiatric disorders include impulse control disorders, anxiety symptoms, disorders of sleep and wakefulness, and apathy. Psychiatric aspects of PD are associated with numerous adverse outcomes, yet in spite of this and their frequent occurrence, there is incomplete understanding of epidemiology, presentation, risk factors, neural substrate, and management strategies. Psychiatric features are typically multimorbid, and there is great intra- and interindividual variability in presentation. The hallmark neuropathophysiological changes that occur in PD, plus the association between exposure to dopaminergic medications and certain psychiatric disorders, suggest a neurobiological basis for many psychiatric symptoms, although psychological factors are involved as well. There is evidence that psychiatric disorders in PD are still under-recognized and undertreated and although psychotropic medication use is common, controlled studies demonstrating efficacy and tolerability are largely lacking. Future research on neuropsychiatric complications in PD should be oriented toward determining modifiable correlates or risk factors and establishing efficacious and well-tolerated treatment strategies.

Abstract
Psychostimulant use disorders remain an unabated public health concern worldwide, but no FDA approved medications are currently available for treatment. Modafinil (MOD), like cocaine, is a dopamine reuptake inhibitor and one of the few drugs evaluated in clinical trials that has shown promise for the treatment of cocaine or methamphetamine use disorders in some patient subpopulations. Recent structure-activity relationship and preclinical studies on a series of MOD analogs have provided insight into modifications of its chemical structure that may lead to advancements in clinical efficacy. Here, we have tested the effects of the clinically available (R)-enantiomer of MOD on extracellular dopamine levels in the nucleus accumbens shell, a mesolimbic dopaminergic projection field that plays significant roles in various aspects of psychostimulant use disorders, measured in vivo by fast-scan cyclic voltammetry and by microdialysis in Sprague-Dawley rats. We have compared these results with those obtained under identical experimental conditions with two novel and enantiopure bis(F) analogs of MOD, JBG1-048 and JBG1-049. The results show that (R)-modafinil (R-MOD), JBG1-048, and JBG1-049, when administered intravenously with cumulative drug-doses, will block the dopamine transporter and reduce the clearance rate of dopamine, increasing its extracellular levels. Differences among the compounds in their maximum stimulation of dopamine levels, and in their time course of effects were also observed. These data highlight the mechanistic underpinnings of R-MOD and its bis(F) analogs as pharmacological tools to guide the discovery of novel medications to treat psychostimulant use disorders.

Abstract
Introduction: We reviewed studies that assessed the treatment of psychiatric disturbances in Parkinson's disease and atypical parkinsonisms. Neuropsychiatric disturbances in these conditions are frequent and have a profound impact on quality of life of patients and of their caregivers. It is therefore important to be familiar with the appropriate pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions for treating these disorders. Areas covered: The authors searched for papers in English in Pubmed using the following keywords: Parkinson's disease, multiple system atrophy, progressive supranuclear palsy, corticobasal degeneration, Lewy body dementia, depression, apathy, anxiety, fatigue, sleep disorders, obsessive compulsive disorders, psychosis, hallucinations, delusions, impulse control disorders. Expert opinion: In Parkinson's disease, depression may benefit from the optimization of dopaminergic therapy, from the use of antidepressants acting on both the serotoninergic and noradrenergic pathways and from cognitive behavioral therapy. Psychosis in Parkinson's disease may improve with the use of clozapine; the serotonin inverse agonist pimavanserin has been shown to be effective. Treatment of impulse control disorders is primarily based on the removal of dopamine agonists. No controlled studies have investigated the treatment of neuropsychiatric disorders in multiple system atrophy, progressive supranuclear palsy or corticobasal degeneration. Acethylcholinesterase inhibitors may be used to treat hallucinations in Lewy body dementia.

Abstract
Recent discoveries have improved our understanding of the physiological and pathological roles of the dopamine transporter (DAT); however, only a few drugs are clinically available for DAT-implicated disorders. Among those drugs, modafinil (MOD) and its ( R)-enantiomer (R-MOD) have been used off-label as therapies for psychostimulant use disorders, but they have shown limited effectiveness in clinical trials. Recent preclinical studies on MOD and R-MOD have led to chemically modified structures aimed toward improving their neurobiological properties that might lead to more effective therapeutics for stimulant use disorders. This study examines three MOD analogues (JJC8-016, JJC8-088, and JJC8-091) with improved DAT affinities compared to their parent compound. These compounds were investigated for their effects on the neurochemistry (brain microdialysis and FSCV) and behavior (ambulatory activity) of male Swiss-Webster mice. Our data indicate that these compounds have dissimilar effects on tonic and phasic dopamine in the nucleus accumbens shell and variability in producing ambulatory activity. These results suggest that small changes in the chemical structure of a DAT inhibitor can cause compounds such as JJC8-088 to produce effects similar to abused psychostimulants like cocaine. In contrast, other compounds like JJC8-091 do not share cocaine-like effects and have a more atypical DAT-inhibitor profile, which may prove to be an advancement in the treatment of psychostimulant use disorders.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To update evidence-based medicine recommendations for treating nonmotor symptoms in Parkinson's disease (PD). BACKGROUND The International Parkinson and Movement Disorder Society Evidence-Based Medicine Committee's recommendations for treatments of PD were first published in 2002, updated in 2011, and now updated again through December 31, 2016. METHODS Level I studies testing pharmacological, surgical, or nonpharmacological interventions for the treatment of nonmotor symptoms in PD were reviewed. Criteria for inclusion and quality scoring were as previously reported. The disorders covered were a range of neuropsychiatric symptoms, autonomic dysfunction, disorders of sleep and wakefulness, pain, fatigue, impaired olfaction, and ophthalmologic dysfunction. Clinical efficacy, implications for clinical practice, and safety conclusions are reported. RESULTS A total of 37 new studies qualified for review. There were no randomized controlled trials that met inclusion criteria for the treatment of anxiety disorders, rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder, excessive sweating, impaired olfaction, or ophthalmologic dysfunction. We identified clinically useful or possibly useful interventions for the treatment of depression, apathy, impulse control and related disorders, dementia, psychosis, insomnia, daytime sleepiness, drooling, orthostatic hypotension, gastrointestinal dysfunction, urinary dysfunction, erectile dysfunction, fatigue, and pain. There were no clinically useful interventions identified to treat non-dementia-level cognitive impairment. CONCLUSIONS The evidence base for treating a range of nonmotor symptoms in PD has grown substantially in recent years. However, treatment options overall remain limited given the high prevalence and adverse impact of these disorders, so the development and testing of new treatments for nonmotor symptoms in PD remains a top priority. © 2019 International Parkinson and Movement Disorder Society.

Abstract
Idiopathic Parkinson's disease (IPD) is a progressive neurodegenerative condition that causes various motor and non-motor symptoms and will often have life-changing effects for those with the condition, as well as for their family and carers. Nurses can make a significant difference to the lives of those affected by Parkinson's disease, whether in the acute setting, community setting or in care homes. This article explores the causes and progressive clinical pathway of IPD using an evidence-based approach. It emphasises the valuable role of the multidisciplinary team and of the nurse, in particular, in monitoring and improving the quality of life of those with the condition and their family and carers.

Abstract
Objective Excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) is one of the most common sleep abnormalities in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD), yet its multifactorial etiology complicates its treatment. This review summarized recent studies on the epidemiology, etiology, clinical implications, associated features, and evaluation of EDS in PD. The efficacy of pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic treatments for EDS in PD was also reviewed. Data Sources English language articles indexed in PubMed and Cochrane databases and Chinese-language papers indexed in Wanfang and National Knowledge Infrastructure databases that were published between January 1987 and November 2017 were located using the following search terms: "sleepiness", "sleep and Parkinson's disease", and "Parkinson's disease and treatment". Study Selection Original research articles and critical reviews related to EDS in PD were selected. Results EDS is a major health hazard and is associated with many motor and nonmotor symptoms of PD. Its causes are multifactorial. There are few specific guidelines for the treatment of EDS in PD. It is first necessary to identify and treat any possible factors causing EDS. Recent studies showed that some nonpharmacologic (i.e., cognitive behavioral therapy, light therapy, and repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation) and pharmacologic (i.e., modafinil, methylphenidate, caffeine, istradefylline, sodium oxybate, and atomoxetine) treatments may be effective in treating EDS in PD. Conclusions EDS is common in the PD population and can have an immensely negative impact on quality of life. Its causes are multifactorial, which complicates its treatment. Further investigations are required to determine the safety and efficacy of potential therapies and to develop novel treatment approaches for EDS in PD.

Abstract
Background Modafinil, a nonamphetaminic wake-promoting compound, is prescribed as first line therapy in narcolepsy, an invalidating disorder characterized by excessive daytime sleepiness and cataplexy. Although its mode of action remains incompletely known, recent studies indicated that modafinil modulates astroglial connexin-based gap junctional communication as administration of a low dose of flecainide, an astroglial connexin inhibitor, enhanced the wake-promoting and procognitive activity of modafinil in rodents and healthy volunteers. The aim of this study is to investigate changes in glucose cerebral metabolism in rodents, induced by the combination of modafinil+flecainide low dose (called THN102). Methods The impact of THN102 on brain glucose metabolism was noninvasively investigated using 18F-2-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose Positron Emission Tomography imaging in Sprague-Dawley male rats. Animals were injected with vehicle, flecainide, modafinil, or THN102 and further injected with 18F-2-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose followed by 60-minute Positron Emission Tomography acquisition. 18F-2-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose Positron Emission Tomography images were coregistered to a rat brain template and normalized from the total brain Positron Emission Tomography signal. Voxel-to-voxel analysis was performed using SPM8 software. Comparison of brain glucose metabolism between groups was then performed. Results THN102 significantly increased regional brain glucose metabolism as it resulted in large clusters of 18F-2-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose uptake localized in the cortex, striatum, and amygdala compared with control or drugs administered alone. These regions, highly involved in the regulation of sleep-wake cycle, emotions, and cognitive functions were hence quantitatively modulated by THN102. Conclusion Data presented here provide the first evidence of a regional brain activation induced by THN102, currently being tested in a phase II clinical trial in narcoleptic patients.

Abstract
Kidney stone disease is a global health care problem, with a high recurrence rate after stone removal. It is thus crucial to develop effective strategies to prevent the formation of new or recurrent stones. Caffeine is one of the main components in caffeinated beverages worldwide (i.e., coffee, tea, soft drinks, and energy drinks). Previous retrospective and prospective studies have reported contradictory effects of caffeine on kidney stone risk. Although it has a diuretic effect on enhancing urinary output, it may slightly increase the stone risk index. However, 3 large cohorts have suggested a preventive role of caffeine in kidney stone disease. In addition, a recent in vitro study has addressed relevant mechanisms underlying the preventive role of caffeine against stone pathogenesis. This review summarizes the relevant data from previous evidence and discusses the association between caffeine consumption and kidney stone risk reduction.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Hallucinations are common and often stressful experiences, occurring in all sensory modalities. They frequently complicate many disorders or situations, such as Parkinson's disease, schizophrenia, hearing or vision loss, intoxications and delirium. Although psychoeducation, coping techniques and psychotherapy may be broadly applicable, they do not address a specific underlying brain mechanism. Pharmacotherapy may effectively alleviate hallucinations if the corresponding mechanism is present, whereas in its absence, may only cause harmful side effects. Therefore, pharmacotherapy needs input about underlying brain mechanisms. RECENT FINDINGS Recent findings suggest new underlying neurobiological mechanisms as possible therapeutic targets in selected patients, for example increased glutamate levels. In addition, neuronavigation can guide repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation treatment of auditory verbal hallucinations to target-specific cortical regions. SUMMARY We propose the use of neuroimaging methods to better understand the interaction of different mechanisms underlying hallucinations and to use this knowledge to guide pharmacotherapy or focal brain stimulation in a personalized manner. In addition, we suggest evidence from various imaging modalities should converge to answer a research question. We believe this 'convergence of evidence' avoids the problem of overreliance on single and isolated findings.

Abstract
Treatment with dopaminergic agents result excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) and some studies have shown the benefit of using modafinil for treating excessive daytime sleepiness of Parkinson's disease (PD) patient. We investigated whether modafinil have ameliorative properties against levodopa induced excessive nighttime sleepiness (ENS) in MPTP-treated murine nocturnal PD model. Our EEG analyses of whole day recordings revealed that modafinil reduce ENS of this nocturnal PD models with levodopa medications. Therefore, we investigated whether, modafinil post-treatment followed by MPTP shows any effect on monoamine contents of brain and found to robustly increased noradrenaline (NA) concentration of MPTP treated mice. Modafinil post-treatment, in neurorestorative context (5 days post-lesion) led to increased striatal dopamine (DA) concentrations of MPTP-treated mice. Here, we first confirmed that modafinil ameliorates levodopa induced excessive sleepiness and restores monoaminergic systems. The arousal and anti-parkinsonian effects displayed by modafinil indicate that in combination with dopaminergic agents, modafinil co-administration may be worthwhile in trying to suppress the excessive daytime sleepiness and progressive dopaminergic neuron loss in PD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The inadequate quality and nature of sleep is a commonly reported problem among hospitalized patients. The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of progressive muscle relaxation training program on sleep quality, sleep state, pain, and quality of life in patients who underwent pulmonary resection. METHODS Our study was planned as a single-blind prospective randomized controlled trial. The study was conducted on 26 patients who underwent surgery by using posterolateral thoracotomy method. Progressive muscle relaxation training were given to the training group with a therapist two times a day. Sleep quality, daytime sleeping, pain, and quality of life were respectively evaluated in the morning before the surgery and 1 week after the surgery by using Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, Epworth Sleepiness Scale, visual analogue scale, and Euro Quality of Life-5D (EQ-5D). RESULTS There is no significant difference between preoperative groups in the total Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, Epworth Sleepiness Scale, Euro Quality of Life-5D, and visual analogue scale scores (p > 0.05). The intra-group change in the study group showed a significant deterioration in the Euro Quality of Life-5D and visual analogue scale scores (p < 0.05). There was a significant deterioration in the total Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, Epworth Sleepiness Scale, EQ-5D, and visual analogue scale scores in the control group (p < 0.05). The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, Epworth Sleepiness Scale, and Euro Quality of Life-5D scores showed significant improvements in the relaxation training group after treatment at 1 week (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Progressive muscle relaxation prevents a decline in patient-reported sleep quality following pulmonary resection.

Abstract
Dysfunction of the striatum is frequently associated with sleep disturbances. However, its role in sleep-wake regulation has been paid little attention even though the striatum densely expresses adenosine A2A receptors (A2ARs), which are essential for adenosine-induced sleep. Here we showed that chemogenetic activation of A2AR neurons in specific subregions of the striatum induced a remarkable increase in non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep. Anatomical mapping and immunoelectron microscopy revealed that striatal A2AR neurons innervated the external globus pallidus (GPe) in a topographically organized manner and preferentially formed inhibitory synapses with GPe parvalbumin (PV) neurons. Moreover, lesions of GPe PV neurons abolished the sleep-promoting effect of striatal A2AR neurons. In addition, chemogenetic inhibition of striatal A2AR neurons led to a significant decrease of NREM sleep at active period, but not inactive period of mice. These findings reveal a prominent contribution of striatal A2AR neuron/GPe PV neuron circuit in sleep control.

Abstract
A wide range of sleep dysfunction complicates Parkinson’s disease during its course from prodromal to palliative stage. It is now increasingly acknowledged that sleep disturbances are thus integral to the disease and pose a significant burden impacting on quality of life of patients. Sleep fragmentation, restless legs syndrome, nocturia, and nocturnal pain are regarded as one of the main components of night-time sleep dysfunction with possible secondary impact on cognition and well-being. The role of dopaminergic therapies, particularly using a continuous drug delivery strategy in managing some of these sleep issues, have been reported but the overall concept remains unclear. This review provides an overview of several aspects of night-time sleep dysfunction in Parkinson’s disease and describes all available published open-label and blinded studies that investigated the use of rotigotine transdermal patch targeting sleep. Blinded studies have suggested beneficial effects of rotigotine transdermal patch on maintenance insomnia and restless legs syndrome in Parkinson’s disease patients. Open-label studies support these observations and also suggest beneficial effects on nocturia and nocturnal pain.

Abstract
AbstractApproximately half of older people report sleep disturbances, which are associated with various health conditions, including neurodegenerative disease and dementia. Indeed, 60 to 70% of people with cognitive impairment or dementia have sleep disturbances, which are linked to poorer disease prognosis. Sleep disturbances in people with dementia have long been recognized and studied; however, in the past 10 years, researchers have begun to study disturbed sleep, including sleep fragmentation, abnormal sleep duration, and sleep disorders, as risk factors for dementia. In this review the authors summarize evidence linking sleep disturbance and dementia. They describe how specific aspects of sleep (e.g., quality, duration) and the prevalence of clinical sleep disorders (e.g., sleep-disordered breathing, rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder) change with age; how sleep parameters and sleep disorders are associated with the risk of dementia; how sleep can be disturbed in dementia; and how disturbed sleep affects dementia prognosis. These findings highlight the potential importance of identifying and treating sleep problems and disorders in middle-aged and older adults as a strategy to prevent cognitive decline and dementia. The authors also review recent evidence linking sleep disturbances to the pathophysiology underlying dementing conditions, and briefly summarize available treatments for sleep disorders in people with dementia.

Abstract
OPINION STATEMENT Impaired sleep and alertness affect the majority of Parkinson's disease (PD) patients, negatively impacting safety and quality of life. The etiology of impaired sleep-wake cycle in PD is multifactorial and encompasses medication side effects, nocturnal PD motor symptoms, and presence of co-existent sleep and neuropsychiatric disorders. The primary neurodegenerative process of PD involves brain regions that regulate the sleep-wake cycle, such as brainstem and hypothalamic nuclei. Sleep disorders in PD include insomnia, REM sleep behavior disorder (RBD), sleep disordered breathing (SDB), restless legs syndrome (RLS), and circadian disruption. Despite its high prevalence in the PD population, there is a paucity of clinical studies that have investigated treatment of sleep dysfunction associated with PD. Therefore, we aim to review available evidence and outline treatment strategies for improvement of disorders of sleep and wakefulness in PD patients. Evidence supporting the efficacy of pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatment strategies in PD is limited. There is thus a great need but also opportunity for development of well-designed clinical trials for impaired sleep and alertness in PD. Providing education about sleep hygiene and strategies for its implementation represents the initial step in management. Prompt diagnosis and treatment of co-existent primary sleep and psychiatric disorders are critical, as this may significantly improve sleep and alertness. While the optimal treatment for insomnia in PD has not been established, available strategies include cognitive-behavioral therapy, medications with soporific properties, and light therapy. Safety measures, clonazepam, and melatonin are the mainstay of treatment for RBD. Continuous positive airway pressure is an effective treatment for SDB in PD. The treatment algorithm for RLS associated with PD mirrors that used for idiopathic RLS. Circadian disruption has emerged as an important etiology of impaired sleep-wake cycles in PD, and circadian-based interventions hold promise for novel treatment approaches.

Abstract
Nonmotor symptoms (NMS) are integral to Parkinson's disease (PD) and the management can often be challenging. In spite of the growing evidence that NMS have a key impact on the quality of life of patients and caregivers, most clinical trials still focus on motor symptoms as primary outcomes. As a consequence strong evidence-based treatment recommendations for NMS occurring in PD are spare. In this chapter, the current data addressing the treatment of major NMS such as sleep, cognitive and autonomic dysfunction, and depression and anxiety are described.

Abstract
Parkinson's disease (PD), dementia with Lewy Bodies (DLB), and multiple system atrophy (MSA) are three major synucleinopathies characterized by α-synuclein-containing inclusions in the brains of patients. Because the cell types and brain structures that are affected vary markedly between the disorders, the patients have different clinical manifestations in addition to some overlapping symptoms, which are the basis for differential diagnosis. Cognitive impairment and depression associated with hippocampal dysfunction are frequently observed in these disorders. While various α-synuclein-containing inclusions are found in the hippocampal formation, increasing evidence supports that small α-synuclein aggregates or oligomers may be the real culprit, causing deficits in neurotransmission and neurogenesis in the hippocampus and related brain regions, which constitute the major mechanism for the hippocampal dysfunctions and associated neuropsychiatric manifestations in synucleinopathies.

Abstract
Sleep disorders (SDs) are one of the most frequent non-motor symptoms of Parkinson’s disease (PD), usually increasing in frequency over the course of the disease and disability progression. SDs include nocturnal and diurnal manifestations such as insomnia, REM sleep behavior disorder, and excessive daytime sleepiness. The causes of SDs in PD are numerous, including the neurodegeneration process itself, which can disrupt the networks regulating the sleep–wake cycle and deplete a large number of cerebral amines possibly playing a role in the initiation and maintenance of sleep. Despite the significant prevalence of SDs in PD patients, few clinical trials on SDs treatment have been conducted. Our aim is to critically review the principal therapeutic options for the most common SDs in PD. The appropriate diagnosis and treatment of SDs in PD can lead to the consolidation of nocturnal sleep, the enhancement of daytime alertness, and the amelioration of the quality of life of the patients.
