Is white matter hyperintensity burden associated with cognitive and motor impairment in patients with parkinson's disease? A systematic review and meta-analysis. Neurosci Biobehav Rev 2024; 161:105677. [PMID: 38636832 DOI: 10.1016/j.neubiorev.2024.105677] [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: 11/29/2022] [Revised: 02/08/2024] [Accepted: 04/12/2024] [Indexed: 04/20/2024]
Abstract
White matter damage quantified as white matter hyperintensities (WMH) may aggravate cognitive and motor impairments, but whether and how WMH burden impacts these problems in Parkinson's disease (PD) is not fully understood. This study aimed to examine the association between WMH and cognitive and motor performance in PD through a systematic review and meta-analysis. We compared the WMH burden across the cognitive spectrum (cognitively normal, mild cognitive impairment, dementia) in PD including controls. Motor signs were compared in PD with low/negative and high/positive WMH burden. We compared baseline WMH burden of PD who did and did not convert to MCI or dementia. MEDLINE and EMBASE databases were used to conduct the literature search resulting in 50 studies included for data extraction. Increased WMH burden was found in individuals with PD compared with individuals without PD (i.e. control) and across the cognitive spectrum in PD (i.e. PD, PD-MCI, PDD). Individuals with PD with high/positive WMH burden had worse global cognition, executive function, and attention. Similarly, PD with high/positive WMH presented worse motor signs compared with individuals presenting low/negative WMH burden. Only three longitudinal studies were retrieved from our search and they showed that PD who converted to MCI or dementia, did not have significantly higher WMH burden at baseline, although no data was provided on WMH burden changes during the follow up. We conclude, based on cross-sectional studies, that WMH burden appears to increase with PD worse cognitive and motor status in PD.

An Integrative Nomogram for Identifying Cognitive Impairment Using Seizure Type and Cerebral Small Vessel Disease Neuroimaging Markers in Patients with Late-Onset Epilepsy of Unknown Origin.

[PMID: 38019380 PMCID: PMC10787714 DOI: 10.1007/s40120-023-00566-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/06/2023] [Accepted: 11/08/2023] [Indexed: 11/30/2023] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Cognitive impairment (CI) is a common comorbidity in patients with late-onset epilepsy of unknown origin (LOEU). However, limited data are available on effective screening methods for CI at an early stage. We aimed to develop and internally validate a nomogram for identifying patients with LOEU at risk of CI and investigate the potential moderating effect of education on the relationship between periventricular white matter hyperintensities (PVHs) and cognitive function. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the clinical data of 61 patients aged ≥ 55 years diagnosed with LOEU. The main outcome was CI, reflected as an adjusted Montreal Cognition Assessment score of < 26 points. A nomogram based on a multivariable logistic regression model was constructed. Its discriminative ability, calibration, and clinical applicability were tested using calibration plots, the area under the curve (AUC), and decision curves. Internal model validation was conducted using the bootstrap method. The moderating effect of education on the relationship between PVH and cognitive function was examined using hierarchical linear regression. RESULTS Forty-four of 61 (72.1%) patients had CI. A nomogram incorporating seizure type, total cerebral small vessel disease burden score, and PVH score was built to identify the risk factors for CI. The AUC of the model was 0.881 (95% confidence interval: 0.771-0.994) and 0.78 (95% confidence interval: 0.75-0.8) after internal validation. Higher educational levels blunted the negative impact of PVH on cognitive function. CONCLUSION Our nomogram provides a convenient tool for identifying patients with LOEU who are at risk of CI. Moreover, our findings demonstrate the importance of education for these patients.

Interactive effect of orthostatic hypotension on gray matter atrophy associated with hyposmia and RBD in de novo Parkinson's disease. J Neurol 2023; 270:5924-5934.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Orthostatic hypotension (OH) is a potential modifiable risk factor for cognitive impairment in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). Although other risk factors for dementia, hyposmia and REM sleep behavior disorder (RBD), are closely associated with autonomic dysfunction in PD, little is known about how these risk factors influence cognitive function and cerebral pathology. OBJECTIVE We investigated how these three factors contribute to gray matter atrophy by considering the interaction of OH with hyposmia and RBD. METHODS We analyzed cortical thickness, subcortical gray matter volume, and cognitive measures from 78 patients with de novo PD who underwent the head-up tilt test for the diagnosis of OH. RESULTS Whole-brain analyses with Monte Carlo corrections revealed that hyposmia was associated with decreased cortical thickness in a marginal branch of the cingulate sulcus among patients with OH, and cortical thickness in this area correlated with cognitive functioning only in patients with OH. Subcortical gray matter volume analysis indicated that severe RBD was associated with decreased volume in the left hippocampus and bilateral amygdala among patients with OH. CONCLUSION Even in early PD, OH exerts effects on gray matter atrophy and cognitive dysfunction by interacting with RBD and hyposmia. OH might exacerbate cerebral pathology induced by hyposmia or RBD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hypertension and enlarged perivascular spaces (EPVS) are thought to be associated with cognitive impairment. However, the correlations among hypertension, EPVS, and cognitive impairment have not been studied yet. We aimed to investigate the relationships between cumulative blood pressure (cBP) exposure with EPVS and cognitive impairment and whether EPVS may mediate the relationship between cBP and cognitive impairment. METHODS A total of 1507 subjects from the Kailuan prospective cohort study were enrolled. cBP was calculated from 2006 to 2022. The effects of cBP, EPVS scores, and cognitive impairment were evaluated using a logistic regression model. The relationships among cBP, EPVS score, and cognitive impairment were analyzed using a mediation model. RESULTS An increase in cBP was positively correlated with an increase in EPVS score. For every SD increase in cBP, the odds ratios (95% CI) of increased EPVS score of the centrum semiovale were 1.67 (1.43-1.95), 1.63 (1.4-1.9), and 1.35 (1.17-1.56), respectively; the odds ratios (95% CI) of increased EPVS score of the basal ganglia were 1.83 (1.56-2.15), 2.01 (1.7-2.36), and 1.31 (1.13-1.52), respectively; and the odds ratios (95% CI) of developing cognitive impairment were 1.28 (1.06-1.53), 1.13 (0.95-1.34), and 1.28 (1.07-1.5), respectively. Basal ganglia-EPVS score accounted for 10.46% to 18.32% of the mediating effects on the relationships of cBP/SD with cognitive impairment. CONCLUSIONS High cBP exposure was an independent risk factor for EPVS, and basal ganglia-EPVS score mediated the effects of cBP on cognitive impairment. REGISTRATION URL: https://www.

Abstract
Cognitive impairment in Parkinson's disease (PD) severely affects patients' prognosis, and early detection of patients at high risk of dementia conversion is important for establishing treatment strategies. We aimed to investigate whether multiparametric MRI radiomics from basal ganglia can improve the prediction of dementia development in PD when integrated with clinical profiles. In this retrospective study, 262 patients with newly diagnosed PD (June 2008-July 2017, follow-up >5 years) were included. MRI radiomic features (n = 1284) were extracted from bilateral caudate and putamen. Two models were developed to predict dementia development: (1) a clinical model-age, disease duration, and cognitive composite scores, and (2) a combined clinical and radiomics model. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) were calculated for each model. The models' interpretabilities were studied. Among total 262 PD patients (mean age, 68 years ± 8 [standard deviation]; 134 men), 51 (30.4%), and 24 (25.5%) patients developed dementia within 5 years of PD diagnosis in the training (n = 168) and test sets (n = 94), respectively. The combined model achieved superior predictive performance compared to the clinical model in training (AUCs 0.928 vs. 0.894, P = 0.284) and test set (AUCs 0.889 vs. 0.722, P = 0.016). The cognitive composite scores of the frontal/executive function domain contributed most to predicting dementia. Radiomics derived from the caudate were also highly associated with cognitive decline. Multiparametric MRI radiomics may have an incremental prognostic value when integrated with clinical profiles to predict future cognitive decline in PD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cognitive impairment is a frequent disabling feature of Parkinson's disease (PD). Orthostatic hypotension (OH) is treatable and may be a risk factor for cognitive impairment. OBJECTIVE We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to examine the relationship between OH with PD-associated minimal cognitive impairment (PD-MCI) and dementia (PDD) and assess the mitigating effects of potential confounding factors. METHODS Observational studies published in English, Spanish, French, or Portuguese up to January 2022 were searched for in PubMed, EBSCO, and SciELO databases. The primary aim of this study was to revise the association between OH with PD-MCI and PDD. Alongside, we assessed OH as related to cognitive rating scales. Fixed and random models were fitted. Meta-regression was used to assess the mitigating effects of confounding variables. RESULTS We identified 18 studies that reported OH association with PDD or PD-MCI, 15 of them reporting OH association with cognitive rating scales. OH was significantly associated with PDD/PD-MCI (OR, 95% CI: 3.31, 2.16-5.08; k = 18, n = 2251; p < 0.01). OH association with PDD (4.64, 2.68-8.02; k = 13, n = 1194; p < 0.01) was stronger than with PD-MCI (1.82, 0.92-3.58; k = 5, n = 1056; p = NS). The association between OH and PD-MCI/PDD was stronger in studies with a higher proportion of women and in those with a lower frequency of supine hypertension. Global cognition rating scale scores were lower in patients with OH (SMD, 95% CI: - 0.55, - 0.83/ - 0.26; k = 12, n = 1427; p < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS Orthostatic hypotension shows as a significant risk factor for cognitive impairment in PD, especially in women and patients not suffering from hypertension.

Abstract
Parkinson's disease (PD) is one of the most common neurodegenerative illnesses, and is a major healthcare burden with prodigious consequences on life-quality, morbidity, and survival. Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of mortality worldwide and growing evidence frequently reports their co-existence with PD. Cardiac dysautonomia due to autonomic nervous system malfunction is the most prevalent type of cardiovascular manifestation in these patients, comprising orthostatic and postprandial hypotension, along with supine and postural hypertension. Moreover, many studies have endorsed the risk of patients with PD to develop ischemic heart disease, heart failure and even arrhythmias, but the underlying mechanisms are not entirely clear. As importantly, the medication used in treating PD, such as levodopa, dopamine agonists or anticholinergic agents, is also responsible for cardiovascular adverse reactions, but further studies are required to elucidate the underlying mechanisms. The purpose of this review was to provide a comprehensive overview of current available data regarding the overlapping cardiovascular disease in patients with PD.

Abstract
Background and objectiveGait disturbances are common in the elderly and can lead to the loss of functional independence and even death. Enlarged perivascular space (EPVS) and motor performance may be related, but only few studies have explored this relationship. The aim of our study was to investigate the effects of both the severity and location of EPVS on movement disorders.MethodTwo hundred and six participants aged between 45 and 85 years old with complete magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data were included in our analysis. EPVS were divided into basal ganglia (BG) and centrum semiovale (CSO), and their grades were measured. Gait was assessed quantitatively using a 4-m walkway and TUG test as well as semi-quantitatively using the Tinetti and SPPB tests. The function of upper extremities was evaluated by 10-repeat pronation–supination, 10-repeat finger-tapping, and 10-repeat opening and closing of the hands.ResultsBoth high-grade EPVS, whether in BG and CSO, were independently correlated with gait parameters, the TUG time, Tinetti, and SPPB tests. The EPVS located in BG had a significant association with 10-repeat finger-tapping time (β = 0.231, P = 0.025) and a similar association was also observed between CSO-EPVS and 10-repeat pronation–supination time (β = 0.228, P = 0.014).ConclusionOur results indicated that EPVS was associated with gait disturbances, and a further investigation found that EPVS has an association with upper extremities disorder. EPVS should be considered as a potential target for delaying gait and upper extremities damage since CSVD can be prevented to some extent.

Curr Neurovasc Res 2022; 19:358-366. [PMID: 36089793 DOI: 10.2174/1567202619666220908113144] [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: 07/15/2022] [Revised: 07/30/2022] [Accepted: 08/01/2022] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS The aim of this study is to investigate the relationships between the original and modified total cerebral Small Vessel Disease (CSVD) score and gait and balance impairment using quantitative and semi-quantitative tests. METHODS In our study, patients aged 45 to 85 consecutively recruited. CSVD manifestations were identified with brain Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), and the original and modified CSVD scores were calculated based on the results. Gait and balance function were assessed using both gait parameters and clinical rating scales. The correlation between the original and modified total scores of the CSVD and gait and balance dysfunction was demonstrated. RESULTS 224 patients were enrolled in the study. Gait and balance disorders were associated with both the original and modified CSVD scores. A significant association remained after adjusting for gender, height, age, hypertension, and other relevant risk factors. The binary logistic regression and chi-squared trend tests revealed that impairment of movement function significantly correlated with the modified CSVD score and that the dysfunction was significantly higher for patients with modified CSVD scores of 5-6 than those with scores of 1-2. In Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) analysis, modified CSVD scores were more accurate in predicting gait impairment than original CSVD scores. CONCLUSION We found both original and modified total CSVD scores to be related to gait and balance disorder, and the modified CSVD score was more accurate in identifying movement impairment and should be used as an effective tool in investigating CSVD and motor dysfunction.

Abstract
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder that gradually develops over time in a progressive manner. The main culprit behind the disease pathology is dopaminergic deficiency in Substantia nigra Pars Compacta (SNpc) due to neuronal degeneration. However, there are other factors that are not only associated with it but also somehow responsible for inception of pathology. Metabolic syndrome is one such risk factor for PD. Metabolic syndrome is a cluster of diseases mainly including diabetes, hypertension, obesity, and hyperlipidemia which pose a risk for developing cardiovascular disorders. All of these disorders have their own pathological pathways that intertwine with PD pathology. This leads to alpha-synuclein aggregation, neuroinflammation, mitochondrial dysfunction, and oxidative stress which are facets in initiating PD pathology. Although few reports are available, this area is underexplored and has contradictory views. Hence, further studies are needed in order to establish a definite relationship between PD and metabolic syndrome. In this review, we aim to elucidate the molecular mechanisms to confirm the association between them and pave the way for potential repurposing of therapies.

Abstract
Background and ObjectiveGait disturbances are common in older people and are associated with adverse consequences, e.g., falls and institutionalization. Enlarged perivascular spaces in the basal ganglia (BG-EPVS) are considered an magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) marker of cerebral small vessel diseases (CSVD). However, the consequences of BG-EPVS are largely unknown. Previous studies showed that other CSVD markers were related to gait disturbances. However, the relation between BG-EPVS and gait performance is unclear. Therefore, we aimed to explore the relation between BG-EPVS and gait performance in elderly individuals.MethodsWe recruited older people with CSVD in the Neurology Department of our hospital from December 1, 2020 to October 31, 2021. Participants with BG-EPVS > 20 on the unilateral side of the basal ganglia slice containing the maximum number were classified into the BG-EPVS group (n = 78), and the rest were classified into the control group (n = 164). Quantitative gait parameters and gait variability were provided by the Intelligent Device for Energy Expenditure and Activity (IDEEA; MiniSun, United States) gait analysis system. Semiquantitative gait assessment was measured with the Tinetti test. Point-biserial correlation and multivariate linear regression analysis were performed to investigate the association between BG-EPVS and gait performance.ResultsThe BG-EPVS group had a slower gait speed and cadence, shorter stride length, longer stance phase percentage, smaller pre-swing angle and footfall, and lower Tinetti gait test and balance test scores compared with those in the control group (P < 0.05). There were no statistical differences in stride length variability and stride time variability between the two groups (P > 0.05). A correlation analysis showed that BG-EPVS were negatively related to gait speed, cadence, stride length, pre-swing angle, and footfall (γrange = −0.497 to −0.237, P < 0.001) and positively related to stance phase percentage (γ = 0.269, P < 0.001). BG-EPVS was negatively related to the score of the Tinetti gait test (γ = −0.449, P < 0.001) and the balance test (γ = −0.489, P < 0.001). The multiple linear regression analysis indicated that BG-EPVS was an independent risk factor for gait disturbances and poor balance after adjusting for confounders, including other CSVD markers.ConclusionLarge numbers of BG-EPVS were independently related to gait disturbances in older people with CSVD. This finding provides information about the consequences of BG-EPVS and risk factors for gait disturbances.

Abstract
Background and Objective Motor dysfunction is common in the elderly, and is associated with adverse consequences. Enlarged perivascular spaces in basal ganglia (BG-EPVSs) are considered an MRI marker of cerebral small-vessel diseases. However, the consequences of BG-EPVSs are largely unknown. In the present study, we aimed to explore the association between large numbers of BG-EPVSs and motor performance. Methods We prospectively recruited elderly individuals in the Neurology Department of our hospital from December 1, 2020 to January 31, 2022. Participants with >20 BG-EPVSs on the unilateral side of the slice containing the most EPVSs were classified as the BG-EPVS group (n=99) and the rest as controls (n=193). Motor performance was assessed by quantitative gait analysis, Tinetti test, timed up-and-go (TUG) test, and the Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB). Spearman correlation analysis and multivariate linear regression analysis were performed to investigate the association between BG-EPVSs and motor performance. Results Compared with the control group, the BG-EPVS group had lower gait speed and cadence, shorter stride length, longer TUG duration, and lower Tinetti gait test, Tinetti balance test, and SPPB scores (P<0.01). Spearman correlation analysis showed that BG-EPVSs were negatively related to gait speed, gait cadence, stride length, and Tinetti gait test, Tinetti balance test, and SPPB scores (ρ= –0.539 to –0.223, P<0.001) and positively related to TUG duration (ρ=0.397, P<0.001). Regression analysis indicated that BG-EPVSs were an independent risk factor of lower gait speed, shorter stride length, poor balance, and poor general physical performance after adjusting for confounders (β= –0.313 to –0.206, P<0.01). Conclusion Large numbers of BG-EPVSs were independently related to poor gait, balance, and general physical performance in elderly individuals, which provides information about the consequences of BG-EPVSs and risk factors for motor dysfunction.

Abstract
Although half of hypertensive patients have hypertensive parents, known hypertension-related human loci identified by genome-wide analysis explain only 3% of hypertension heredity. Therefore, mainstream transcriptome profiling of hypertensive subjects addresses differentially expressed genes (DEGs) specific to gender, age, and comorbidities in accordance with predictive preventive personalized participatory medicine treating patients according to their symptoms, individual lifestyle, and genetic background. Within this mainstream paradigm, here, we determined whether, among the known hypertension-related DEGs that we could find, there is any genome-wide hypertension theranostic molecular marker applicable to everyone, everywhere, anytime. Therefore, we sequenced the hippocampal transcriptome of tame and aggressive rats, corresponding to low and high stress reactivity, an increase of which raises hypertensive risk; we identified stress-reactivity-related rat DEGs and compared them with their known homologous hypertension-related animal DEGs. This yielded significant correlations between stress reactivity-related and hypertension-related fold changes (log2 values) of these DEG homologs. We found principal components, PC1 and PC2, corresponding to a half-difference and half-sum of these log2 values. Using the DEGs of hypertensive versus normotensive patients (as the control), we verified the correlations and principal components. This analysis highlighted downregulation of β-protocadherins and hemoglobin as whole-genome hypertension theranostic molecular markers associated with a wide vascular inner diameter and low blood viscosity, respectively.

Abstract
The motoric cognitive risk (MCR) syndrome is a pre-dementia condition, marked by the enhanced risk for Alzheimer's disease (AD) and vascular dementia, together with falls, disability, and abnormal movements. The research studies revealed the distinct neurological and non-neurological clinical gait irregularities during dementia and accelerated functional decline, such as postural and balance impairments, memory loss, cognitive failure, and metabolic dysfunctions. The disabling characteristics of MCR comprise altered afferent sensory and efferent motor responses, together with disrupted visual, vestibular, and proprioceptive components. The pathological basis of MCR relates with the frontal lacunar infarcts, white matter hyperintensity (WMH), gray matter atrophy in the pre-motor and pre-frontal cortex, abnormal cholinergic functioning, inflammatory responses, and genetic factors. Further, cerebrovascular lesions and cardiovascular disorders exacerbate the disease pathology. The diagnosis of MCR is carried out through neuropsychological tests, biomarker assays, imaging studies, questionnaire-based evaluation, and motor function tests, including walking speed, dual-task gait tests, and ambulation ability. Recovery from MCR may include cognitive, physical, and social activities, exercise, diet, nutritional supplements, symptomatic drug treatment, and lifestyle habits that restrict the disease progression. Psychotherapeutic counseling, anti-depressants, and vitamins may support motor and cognitive improvement, primarily through the restorative pathways. However, an in-depth understanding of the association of immobility, dementia, and cognitive stress with MCR requires additional clinical and pre-clinical studies. They may have a significant contribution in reducing MCR syndrome and the risk for dementia. Overall, the current review informs the vital connection between gait performance and cognition in MCR and highlights the usefulness of future research in the discernment and treatment of dementiating illness.
