Front Aging Neurosci 2024; 16:1399285. [PMID: 38979112 PMCID: PMC11228142 DOI: 10.3389/fnagi.2024.1399285] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/11/2024] [Accepted: 05/31/2024] [Indexed: 07/10/2024] Open
Abstract
Aim To investigate the correlation between motor function and health-related quality of life (HrQOL) in early to mid-stage patients with Parkinson disease (PwP). Methods This cross-sectional study recruited PwP from April 2020 to December 2023 at the outpatient clinic of Peking Union Medical College Hospital in Beijing, China. The motor symptoms were assessed using Movement Disorder Society-sponsored revision of the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (MDS-UPDRS) part 3. Balance function was evaluated using the Berg Balance Scale (BBS), and the risk of fall using Timed Up-and-Go test (TUG), and Five Times Sit-to-Stand test (FTSST). Freezing of gait questionnaire (FOGQ) was used to evaluate the severity of gait. The Intelligent Device for Energy Expenditure and Physical Activity (IDEEA) recorded gait cycle parameters, and the isokinetic dynamometer measured muscle strength. The Parkinson's Disease Questionnaire-39 (PDQ-39) was used to measure HrQOL. All assessments were tested during the on state. Spearman correlation was conducted to evaluate the correlation between motor function and HrQOL. Results 243 patients with mean age of 69.33 years were enrolled. The PDQ-39 score was strongly correlated with FOG in H&Y stage III (r = 0.653, p < 0.001) and moderately correlated in H&Y stage I (r = 0.471, p < 0.001) and H&Y stage II (r = 0.386, p < 0.001). Furthermore, the FOG was strongly correlated with mobility domain at H&Y stage III (r = 0.694, p < 0.001) and moderately correlated at H&Y stage I (r = 0.431, p < 0.001) and H&Y stage II (r = 0.434, p < 0.001). All motor function scores were correlated with PDQ-39 scores at H&Y stage III (p < 0.05). Conclusion Motor function correlated with HrQOL in early to mid-stage PwP, and FOG was the main factor, especially affecting mobility, activities of daily life and communication. HrQOL in patients at different disease stages were variously affected by motor function, and HrQOL and multiple dimensions was significantly associated with motor function in patients at H&Y stage III.

Hodgson P, Jordan A, Sinani C, Charura D, Orange ST. The relationship between physical function and psychological symptoms in Parkinson's disease: A systematic review and meta-regression analysis. CNS Neurosci Ther 2024; 30:e14562. [PMID: 38334239 PMCID: PMC10853949 DOI: 10.1111/cns.14562] [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: 04/20/2023] [Revised: 08/21/2023] [Accepted: 12/01/2023] [Indexed: 02/10/2024] Open
Abstract
AIMS This systematic review and meta-regression aimed to examine available literature reporting measures of physical function, anxiety, and/or depression and whether any relationships exist between these measures in individuals with Parkinson's disease. METHODS MEDLINE, CINAHL, AMED, and APA PsychInfo databases were systematically searched. Screening, quality assessment, and data extraction were completed alongside meta-regression analysis. RESULTS Of 1175 studies retrieved, 40 were selected for analysis with only one study assessing the relationship between physical and psychological outcomes within their cohort. A total of 27 studies were also eligible for meta-regression analysis-a total sample of 1211 participants. Meta-regressions of five combinations of paired physical and psychological outcomes showed a significant moderating effect of symptoms of depression (Beck Depression Inventory) on mobility (Timed-Up-and-Go test; coefficient = 0.37, 95% CI 0.09 to 0.65, p = 0.012) and balance (Berg Balance Score) scores (coefficient = -1.25, 95% CI -1.77 to -0.73, p < 0.001). CONCLUSION Although physical and psychological outcomes of interest were used in all included studies, only one examined their relationship. Our analysis suggests that symptoms of depression may influence measures of mobility and balance. Specifically, as the severity of symptoms of depression increases, performance on measures of mobility and balance worsens.

Abstract
BackgroundNon-motor symptoms are common in Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients, decreasing quality of life and having no specific treatments. This research investigates dynamic functional connectivity (FC) changes during PD duration and its correlations with non-motor symptoms.MethodsTwenty PD patients and 19 healthy controls (HC) from PPMI dataset were collected and used in this study. Independent component analysis (ICA) was performed to select significant components from the entire brain. Components were grouped into seven resting-state intrinsic networks. Static and dynamic FC changes during resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) were calculated based on selected components and resting state networks (RSN).ResultsStatic FC analysis results showed that there was no difference between PD-baseline (PD-BL) and HC group. Network averaged connection between frontoparietal network and sensorimotor network (SMN) of PD-follow up (PD-FU) was lower than PD-BL. Dynamic FC analysis results suggested four distinct states, and each state’s temporal characteristics, such as fractional windows and mean dwell time, were calculated. The state 2 of our study showed positive coupling within and between SMN and visual network, while the state 3 showed hypo-coupling through all RSN. The fractional windows and mean dwell time of PD-FU state 2 (positive coupling state) were statistically lower than PD-BL. Fractional windows and mean dwell time of PD-FU state 3 (hypo-coupling state) were statistically higher than PD-BL. Outcome scales in Parkinson’s disease–autonomic dysfunction scores of PD-FU positively correlated with mean dwell time of state 3 of PD-FU.ConclusionOverall, our finding indicated that PD-FU patients spent more time in hypo-coupling state than PD-BL. The increase of hypo-coupling state and decrease of positive coupling state might correlate with the worsening of non-motor symptoms in PD patients. Dynamic FC analysis of resting-state fMRI can be used as monitoring tool for PD progression.

Are the EEG microstates correlated with motor and non-motor parameters in patients with Parkinson's disease? Neurophysiol Clin 2023; 53:102839. [PMID: 36716585 DOI: 10.1016/j.neucli.2022.102839] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/19/2022] [Revised: 11/05/2022] [Accepted: 12/17/2022] [Indexed: 01/30/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study compared electroencephalography microstates (EEG-MS) of patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) to healthy controls and correlated EEG-MS with motor and non-motor aspects of PD. METHODS This cross-sectional exploratory study was conducted with patients with PD (n = 10) and healthy controls (n = 10) matched by sex and age. We recorded EEG-MS using 32 channels during eyes-closed and eyes-open conditions and analyzed the four classic EEG-MS maps (A, B, C, D). Clinical information (e.g., disease duration, medications, levodopa equivalent daily dose), motor (Movement Disorder Society - Unified Parkinson Disease Rating Scale II and III, Timed Up and Go simple and dual-task, and Mini-Balance Evaluation Systems Test) and non-motor aspects (Mini-Mental State Exam [MMSE], verbal fluency, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, and Parkinson's Disease Questionnaire-39 [PDQ-39]) were assessed in the PD group. Mann-Whitney U test was used to compare groups, and Spearman's correlation coefficient to analyze the correlations between coverage of EEG-MS and clinical aspects of PD. RESULTS The PD group showed a shorter duration of EEG-MS C in the eyes-closed condition than the control group. We observed correlations (rho = 0.64 to 0.82) between EEG-MS B, C, and D and non-motor aspects of PD (MMSE, verbal fluency, PDQ-39, and levodopa equivalent daily dose). CONCLUSION Alterations in EEG-MS and correlations between topographies and cognitive aspects, quality of life, and medication dose indicate that EEG could be used as a PD biomarker. Future studies should investigate these associations using a longitudinal design.

Neuroimage Clin 2023; 37:103307. [PMID: 36586362 PMCID: PMC9817029 DOI: 10.1016/j.nicl.2022.103307] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/20/2022] [Revised: 12/25/2022] [Accepted: 12/26/2022] [Indexed: 12/29/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Impulsive compulsive behaviors (ICBs) often disturb patients with Parkinson's Disease (PD), of which impulse control disorder (ICD) and dopamine dysregulation syndrome (DDS) are two major subsets. The nucleus accumbens (NAcc) is involved in ICB; however, it remains unclear how the NAcc affects cortical function and defines the different behavioral characteristics of ICD and DDS. OBJECTIVES To identify the cortico-striatal network primarily involved in ICB and the differences in these networks between patients with ICD and DDS using structural and resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging. METHODS Patients with PD were recruited using data from a previous cohort study and divided into those with ICB (ICB group) and without ICB (non-ICB group) using the Japanese version of the Questionnaire for Impulsive Compulsive Disorders in Parkinson's Disease (J-QUIP). From these two groups, we extracted 37 pairs matched for age, sex, disease duration, and levodopa equivalent daily dose of dopamine agonists. Patients with ICB were further classified as having ICD or DDS based on the J-QUIP subscore. General linear models were used to compare gray matter volume and functional connectivity (FC) of the NAcc, caudate, and putamen between the ICB and non-ICB groups and between patients with ICD and those with DDS. RESULTS We found no significant differences in gray matter volumebetween the ICB and non-ICB groups or between patients with ICD and those with DDS. Compared with the non-ICB group, the FC of the right NAcc in the ICB group was lower in the bilateral ventromedial prefrontal cortex and higher in the left middle occipital gyrus. Furthermore, patients with DDS showed higher FC between the right putamen and left superior temporal gyrus and higher FC between the left caudate and bilateral middle occipital gyrus than patients with ICD. In contrast, patients with ICD exhibited higher FC between the left NAcc and the right posterior cingulate cortex than patients with DDS. CONCLUSIONS The functionally altered network between the right NAcc and ventromedial prefrontal cortex was associated with ICB in PD. In addition, the surrounding cortico-striatal networks may differentiate the behavioral characteristics of patients with ICD and those with DDS.

Decreased cerebrospinal fluid orexin levels not associated with clinical sleep disturbance in Parkinson's disease: A retrospective study. PLoS One 2022; 17:e0279747. [PMID: 36584130 PMCID: PMC9803214 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0279747] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/01/2022] [Accepted: 12/13/2022] [Indexed: 12/31/2022] Open
Abstract
Patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) often suffer from sleep disturbances, including excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) and rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (RBD). These symptoms are also experienced by patients with narcolepsy, which is characterized by orexin neuronal loss. In PD, a decrease in orexin neurons is observed pathologically, but the association between sleep disturbance in PD and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) orexin levels is still unclear. This study aimed to clarify the role of orexin as a biomarker in patients with PD. CSF samples were obtained from a previous cohort study conducted between 2015 and 2020. We cross-sectionally and longitudinally examined the association between CSF orexin levels, sleep, and clinical characteristics. We analyzed 78 CSF samples from 58 patients with PD and 21 samples from controls. CSF orexin levels in patients with PD (median = 272.0 [interquartile range = 221.7-334.5] pg/mL) were lower than those in controls (352.2 [296.2-399.5] pg/mL, p = 0.007). There were no significant differences in CSF orexin levels according to EDS, RBD, or the use of dopamine agonists. Moreover, no significant correlation was observed between CSF orexin levels and clinical characteristics by multiple linear regression analysis. Furthermore, the longitudinal changes in orexin levels were also not correlated with clinical characteristics. This study showed decreased CSF orexin levels in patients with PD, but these levels did not show any correlation with any clinical characteristics. Our results suggest the limited efficacy of CSF orexin levels as a biomarker for PD, and that sleep disturbances may also be affected by dysfunction of the nervous system other than orexin, or by dopaminergic treatments in PD. Understanding the reciprocal role of orexin among other neurotransmitters may provide a better treatment strategy for sleep disturbance in patients with PD.

Imaging the Limbic System in Parkinson's Disease-A Review of Limbic Pathology and Clinical Symptoms. Brain Sci 2022; 12:brainsci12091248.

Abstract
The limbic system describes a complex of brain structures central for memory, learning, as well as goal directed and emotional behavior. In addition to pathological studies, recent findings using in vivo structural and functional imaging of the brain pinpoint the vulnerability of limbic structures to neurodegeneration in Parkinson's disease (PD) throughout the disease course. Accordingly, dysfunction of the limbic system is critically related to the symptom complex which characterizes PD, including neuropsychiatric, vegetative, and motor symptoms, and their heterogeneity in patients with PD. The aim of this systematic review was to put the spotlight on neuroimaging of the limbic system in PD and to give an overview of the most important structures affected by the disease, their function, disease related alterations, and corresponding clinical manifestations. PubMed was searched in order to identify the most recent studies that investigate the limbic system in PD with the help of neuroimaging methods. First, PD related neuropathological changes and corresponding clinical symptoms of each limbic system region are reviewed, and, finally, a network integration of the limbic system within the complex of PD pathology is discussed.

Abstract
Depression, with an estimated prevalence of about 40% is a most common neuropsychiatric disorder in Parkinson disease (PD), with a negative impact on quality of life, cognitive impairment and functional disability, yet the underlying neurobiology is poorly understood. Depression in PD (DPD), one of its most common non-motor symptoms, can precede the onset of motor symptoms but can occur at any stage of the disease. Although its diagnosis is based on standard criteria, due to overlap with other symptoms related to PD or to side effects of treatment, depression is frequently underdiagnosed and undertreated. DPD has been related to a variety of pathogenic mechanisms associated with the underlying neurodegenerative process, in particular dysfunction of neurotransmitter systems (dopaminergic, serotonergic and noradrenergic), as well as to disturbances of cortico-limbic, striato-thalamic-prefrontal, mediotemporal-limbic networks, with disruption in the topological organization of functional mood-related, motor and other essential brain network connections due to alterations in the blood-oxygen-level-dependent (BOLD) fluctuations in multiple brain areas. Other hypothetic mechanisms involve neuroinflammation, neuroimmune dysregulation, stress hormones, neurotrophic, toxic or metabolic factors. The pathophysiology and pathogenesis of DPD are multifactorial and complex, and its interactions with genetic factors, age-related changes, cognitive disposition and other co-morbidities awaits further elucidation.
