Abstract
BACKGROUND Parkinson's Disease (PD) patients represent challenging spinal surgery candidates due to associated frailty and deformity. This study consolidates the literature concerning spinal surgery outcomes in PD versus non-PD patients, to evaluate if PD predisposes patients to worse post-operative outcomes, so that treatment protocols can be optimised. METHODS A systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted of PubMed/Medline, Embase, and Google Scholar databases per the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. Studies of interest included comparative (PD versus non-PD) cohorts undergoing spinal instrumented fusions. Post-operative clinical outcomes were collated and compared for significance between cohorts. Further analysis was made on outcomes based on the different surgical procedures performed (Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion (ACDF), Thoracolumbar or Lumbar fusions, Thoracolumbar or Lumbar fusions without Osteoporotic Vertebral Compression fracture (OVCF) patients). All statistical analysis was performed using The R Project for Statistical Computing (version 4.1.2), with a p-value of < 0.05 deemed statistically significant. RESULTS In total, 2,323,650 patients were included across 16 studies. Of those, 2,308,949 (99.37%) were patients without PD (non-PD), while 14,701 (0.63%) patients had PD at time of surgery. The collective mean age was 68.23 years (PD: 70.14 years vs non-PD: 64.86 years). Comparatively, there were 844,641 males (PD: 4,574; non-PD: 840,067) and 959,908 females (PD: 3,213; non-PD: 956,695). Overall, there were more post-operative complications in the PD cohort. Specifically, PD patients experienced significantly more surgical site infections (p = 0.01), increased rates of revision surgeries (p = 0.04) and increased venous thromboembolic events (p = 0.02) versus the non-PD cohort. In thoracolumbar/lumbar spinal fusions without OVCF patients, the PD cohort had increased rates of revision surgeries (p < 0.01) in comparison to the non-PD cohort. However, when including OVCF patients in thoracolumbar/lumbar spinal fusions, the PD cohort had significantly higher amounts of postoperative complications (p = 0.01), pneumonia (p = 0.02), and revision surgeries (p < 0.01) when compared to the non-PD cohort. CONCLUSION Although more robust prospective studies are needed, the results of this study highlight the need for advanced wound care management in the postoperative period, both in-hospital and in the community, in addition to comprehensive multidisciplinary care from allied health professionals, with potential for the use of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocols in PD patients undergoing spinal instrumented fusions.

Geng C, Chen C. Association between serum insulin-like growth factor 1 and osteoporosis risk in Parkinson's disease: a cross-sectional study. Neurol Sci 2024:10.1007/s10072-024-07605-6. [PMID: 38898339 DOI: 10.1007/s10072-024-07605-6] [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: 02/24/2024] [Accepted: 05/20/2024] [Indexed: 06/21/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine the correlation between serum insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) and osteoporosis (OP) in Parkinson's disease (PD). METHODS We retrospectively analyzed clinical data from 105 PD patients (PD group) and 78 individuals in the health examination group (HC group). We compared general clinical data and serum IGF-1 levels between the two groups. PD patients were further categorized into PD with OP (50 cases) and PD without OP (55 cases) based on dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) results for bone density. We compared general clinical data and serum IGF-1 levels between these two subgroups. Pearson correlation coefficient analysis was conducted to assess the relationship between serum IGF-1 levels and bone density at the lumbar spine and left femoral neck. Multifactorial logistic regression analysis was performed to identify risk factors for PD with OP. RESULTS Serum IGF-1 levels were significantly lower in the PD group compared to the HC group (P < 0.05). Pearson correlation analysis revealed a positive association between serum IGF-1 levels and both lumbar spine and left femoral neck bone densities (r = 0.653, P < 0.001; r = 0.625, P < 0.001). Multivariate logistic regression analysis identified decreased serum IGF-1 levels, lower uric acid levels, and higher H-Y stage as risk factors for PD with OP (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION Reduced levels of serum IGF-1, uric acid, and an increased H-Y stage are closely linked to osteoporosis in PD. Elevating serum levels of IGF-1 and uric acid may potentially offer therapeutic avenues for PD with osteoporosis.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Fracture risk was elevated in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients compared with controls in this nationwide study. Among PD patients, the risk of fracture increased linearly with PD severity, whereas no difference in fracture risk was observed according to PD duration. INTRODUCTION Parkinson's disease (PD) is reported to be associated with a high risk of fractures. Several studies found an association between severity and duration of PD and falls or bone mineral density, but those factors have not been considered in most previous research. The aim of this study was to determine the fracture risk in PD patients according to their disease severity and duration. METHODS This population-based, retrospective cohort study used data from the Korean National Health Insurance Service database. The study population included 10,333 patients with prevalent PD and 6,501,464 comparison cohort. Fracture risks according to the prevalence, severity, and duration of PD were evaluated using Cox proportional hazard methods. RESULTS Fracture risk was elevated in PD patients at all sites compared with controls (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR] 1.49, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.44-1.56 for any fracture). When comparing fracture sites, hip fractures showed the largest risk increase in PD patients (aHR 2.16, 95% CI 1.95-2.38). Among PD patients, the risk of any fracture increased linearly with PD severity and was highest in patients with severe disease (aHR 1.65, 95% CI 1.53-1.79 compared with controls). Meanwhile, no significant association was observed between PD duration and fracture risk. CONCLUSIONS The prevalence of PD was related to an increased risk of fractures in this nationwide study, and PD severity was linearly associated with fracture risk. PD prevalence and severity should be considered when evaluating the risk factors of fracture in clinical practice.

Effects of Pramipexole Combined with Nerve Growth Factor on Cognitive Impairment and Urinary AD7c-NTP Expression in Patients with Parkinson’s Disease. COMPUTATIONAL AND MATHEMATICAL METHODS IN MEDICINE 2022; 2022:3398732. [PMID: 35516456 PMCID: PMC9064489 DOI: 10.1155/2022/3398732] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/11/2022] [Revised: 03/04/2022] [Accepted: 03/14/2022] [Indexed: 11/18/2022]
Abstract
Objective To explore the effects of pramipexole combined with nerve growth factor (NGF) on cognitive impairment and urinary Alzheimer-associated neural thread protein (AD7c-NTP) expression in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). Methods Fifty patients with PD treated in our hospital from February 2020 to April 2021 were enrolled. The patients were arbitrarily assigned into control group and study group. The former was treated with pramipexole, and the latter was treated with pramipexole combined with NGF. The efficacy, cognitive function, serum inflammatory factors, cortisol levels, serum macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF), brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), urine AD7c-NTP levels, and the incidence of adverse reactions were compared. Results First of all, the effective rate in the study group was higher compared to the control group (P < 0.05). After treatment, the cognitive function was enhanced, and the scores of Montreal cognitive assessment (MoCA) in the study group were higher compared to the control group (P < 0.05). The levels of serum IL-6, CRP, and TNF-α decreased after treatment, and the levels of serum IL-6, CRP, and TNF-α in the study group were remarkably lower compared to the control group (P < 0.05). In addition, the levels of serum DA, NE, and 5-HT increased after treatment, and the levels of serum DA, NE, and 5-HT in the study group were remarkably higher compared to the control group (P < 0.05). Then, the levels of serum MIF and urine AD7c-NTP decreased and BDNF increased after treatment, and the level of BDNF in the study group was higher compared to the control group, while the levels of serum MIF and urine AD7c-NTP in the study group were lower compared to the control group (P < 0.05). Finally, the adverse reactions were compared. The incidence of adverse reactions in the study group was lower compared to the control group, and the difference exhibited not statistically significant (16.00% vs. 24.00%, P > 0.05). Conclusion Pramipexole combined with NGF therapy not only can effectively strengthen the cognitive impairment of patients with PD and promote clinical efficacy and high safety but also can inhibit inflammatory state, regulate brain neurotransmitters, and reduce urinary AD7c-NTP levels.
