Abstract
BACKGROUND Isolated rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (iRBD) serves as a prodromal phase of Parkinson's disease (PD) and dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB). Blunted tachycardia (BT) during postural changes indicates neurogenic orthostatic hypotension, a marker of autonomic dysfunction. We aimed to investigate whether BT is associated with cardiac sympathetic neurogenic denervation. Additionally, we conducted a preliminary short-term follow-up to examine the potential prognostic significance of BT regarding phenoconversion and mortality. METHODS Forty-three patients with iRBD at Shiga University of Medical Science Hospital underwent active standing tests to identify BT, defined by a specific ratio of decrease in systolic blood pressure to inadequate increase in heart rate after standing, and orthostatic hypotension. 123I-metaiodobenzylguanidine myocardial scintigraphy (123I-MIBG) and dopamine transporter single-photon emission computed tomography (DAT-SPECT) were performed. Participants were followed up for 3.4 ± 2.4 years for phenoconversion and 4.0 ± 2.3 years for mortality assessment, and the risk of events was analyzed using log-rank tests. RESULTS Among the 43 participants (mean age, 72.3 ± 7.9 years; 8 female), 17 met the BT criteria. We found no significant comorbidity-related differences in hypertension or diabetes between the BT(+) and BT(-) groups. Orthostatic hypotension was more prevalent in the BT(+) group than in the BT(-) group (47.1% vs 7.7%, p = 0.003). BT(+) patients were older with a lower early and delayed MIBG uptake; however, no significant differences were observed in DAT accumulation. Phenoconversion was observed in seven (41.2%) BT(+) and seven (26.9%) BT(-) patients. Three deaths were recorded in the BT(+) group (17.6%) and three in the BT(-) group (11.5%). No significant differences were observed in the risk of phenoconversion or mortality between the groups. CONCLUSIONS We have identified the possibility that BT reflects cardiac sympathetic neurogenic denervation in patients with iRBD. Future research is needed to elucidate the potential prognostic value of BT.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Autonomic dysfunction is prevalent in Parkinson's disease (PD) and can worsen quality of life. We examined: (a) whether specific autonomic symptoms were more strongly associated with anxiety or depression in PD and (b) whether overall autonomic dysfunction predicted mood trajectories over a 5-year period. METHODS Newly diagnosed individuals with PD (N = 414) from the Parkinson's Progression Markers Initiative completed self-report measures of depression, anxiety, and autonomic symptoms annually. Cross-sectional linear regressions examined relationships between specific autonomic subdomains (gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, thermoregulatory, etc.) and mood. Multilevel modeling examined longitudinal relationships with total autonomic load. RESULTS Gastrointestinal symptoms were associated with both higher anxiety (b = 1.04, 95% CI [.55, 1.53], P < .001) and depression (b = .24, 95% CI [.11, .37], P = .012), as were thermoregulatory symptoms (anxiety: b = 1.06, 95% CI [.46, 1.65], P = .004; depression: b = .25, 95% CI [.09, .42], P = .013), while cardiovascular (b = .36, 95% CI [.10, .62], P = .012) and urinary symptoms (b = .10, 95% CI [.01, .20], P = .037) were associated only with depression. Longitudinally, higher total autonomic load was associated with increases in both depression (b = .01, 95% CI [.00, .02], P = .015) and anxiety (b = .04, 95% CI [.01, .06], P < .001) over time, as well as occasion-to-occasion fluctuations (depression: b = .08, 95% CI [.05, .10], P < .001; anxiety: b = .24, 95% CI [.15, .32], P < .001). CONCLUSION Findings suggest autonomic dysfunction, particularly gastrointestinal and thermoregulatory symptoms, may be an indicator for elevated anxiety/depression and a potential treatment target early on in PD.

Abstract
Depression with an estimated prevalence of 35% is a frequent manifestation of dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB), having negative effects on cognitive performance and life expectancy, yet the underlying neurobiology is poorly understood and most likely heterogeneous. Depressive symptoms in DLB can occur during the clinical course and, together with apathy, is a common prodromal neuropsychiatric symptom of this neurocognitive disorder in the group of Lewy body synucleinopathies. There are no essential differences in the frequency of depression in DLB and Parkinson disease-dementia (PDD), while its severity is up to twice as high as in Alzheimer disease (AD). Depression in DLB that is frequently underdiagnosed and undertreated, has been related to a variety of pathogenic mechanisms associated with the basic neurodegenerative process, in particular dysfunctions of neurotransmitter systems (decreased monoaminergic/serotonergic, noradrenergic and dopaminergic metabolism), α-synuclein pathology, synaptic zinc dysregulation, proteasome inhibition, gray matter volume loss in prefrontal and temporal areas as well as dysfunction of neuronal circuits with decreased functional connectivity of specific brain networks. Pharmacotherapy should avoid tricyclic antidepressants (anticholinergic adverse effects), second-generation antidepressants being a better choice, while modified electroconvulsive therapy, transcranial magnetic stimulation therapy and deep brain stimulation may be effective for pharmacotherapy-resistant cases. Since compared to depression in other dementias like Alzheimer disease and other parkinsonian syndromes, our knowledge of its molecular basis is limited, and further studies to elucidate the heterogeneous pathogenesis of depression in DLB are warranted.

Abstract
Background Sleep disturbances and excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) are common non-motor symptoms in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). The purpose of this study was to identify the contributors to sleep disturbances, including insomnia, restless legs syndrome, rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (RBD), sleep-disordered breathing, nocturnal akinesia and EDS, in patients with PD. Methods We conducted a cross-sectional study including 128 consecutive Japanese patients with PD. Sleep disturbances and EDS were defined as a PD Sleep Scale-2 (PDSS-2) total score ≥15 and an Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) score >10, respectively. The patients were divided into four groups according to the presence or absence of sleep disturbances and EDS. We evaluated the disease severity, motor symptoms, cognition, olfactory test, the Scales for Outcomes in PD-Autonomic dysfunction (SCOPA-AUT), the Beck Depression Inventory-II (BDI-II), and the RBD Screening Questionnaire Japanese version (RBDSQ-J). Results Of 128 patients, 64 had neither EDS nor sleep disturbances, 29 had sleep disturbances without EDS, 14 had EDS without sleep disturbances, and 21 had both EDS and sleep disturbances. Patients with sleep disturbances had higher BDI-II scores than those without sleep disturbances. Probable RBD was more frequent in patients with both sleep disturbances and EDS than in those with neither EDS nor sleep disturbances. The SCOPA-AUT score was lower in patients with neither EDS nor sleep disturbances than in patients in the other three groups. Using multivariable logistic regression analysis with neither sleep disturbances nor EDS as a reference group, that the SCOPA-AUT score was an independent contributor to sleep disturbances (adjusted OR, 1.192; 95% CI, 1.065-1.333; P = 0.002) or EDS (OR, 1.245; 95% CI, 1.087-1.424; P = 0.001) and that the BDI-II (OR, 1.121; 95% CI, 1.021-1.230; P = 0.016) and RBDSQ-J scores (OR, 1.235; 95% CI, 1.007-1.516; P = 0.043) as well as the SCOPA-AUT score (OR, 1.137; 95% CI, 1.006-1.285; P = 0.040) were independent contributors to both sleep disturbances and EDS. Conclusions Autonomic symptoms were associated with patients with sleep disturbances or EDS, and depressive and RBD symptoms in addition to autonomic symptoms were associated with patients with both sleep disturbances and EDS.

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.

Abstract
Depression is one of the most frequent and burdensome non-motor symptoms in Parkinson’s disease (PD), across all stages. Even when its severity is mild, PD depression has a great impact on quality of life for these patients and their caregivers. Accordingly, accurate diagnosis, supported by validated scales, identification of risk factors, and recognition of motor and non-motor symptoms comorbid to depression are critical to understanding the neurobiology of depression, which in turn determines the effectiveness of dopaminergic drugs, antidepressants and non-pharmacological interventions. Recent advances using in vivo functional and structural imaging demonstrate that PD depression is underpinned by dysfunction of limbic networks and monoaminergic systems, depending on the stage of PD and its associated symptoms, including apathy, anxiety, rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (RBD), cognitive impairment and dementia. In particular, the evolution of serotonergic, noradrenergic, and dopaminergic dysfunction and abnormalities of limbic circuits across time, involving the anterior cingulate and orbitofrontal cortices, amygdala, thalamus and ventral striatum, help to delineate the variable expression of depression in patients with prodromal, early and advanced PD. Evidence is accumulating to support the use of dual serotonin and noradrenaline reuptake inhibitors (desipramine, nortriptyline, venlafaxine) in patients with PD and moderate to severe depression, while selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation and cognitive behavioral therapy may also be considered. In all patients, recent findings advocate that optimization of dopamine replacement therapy and evaluation of deep brain stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus to improve motor symptoms represents an important first step, in addition to physical activity. Overall, this review indicates that increasing understanding of neurobiological changes help to implement a roadmap of tailored interventions for patients with PD and depression, depending on the stage and comorbid symptoms underlying PD subtypes and their prognosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Autonomic dysfunction and depression are common non-motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease (PD) that confer poorer prognosis. These PD symptoms may have overlapping pathophysiologic underpinnings. OBJECTIVE To investigate associations between autonomic and depression symptoms in early PD, and their evolution over time. METHODS We obtained data from the Parkinson's Progression Markers Initiative, a prospective open-access database of early PD. Regression analyses were used to model effects of depression on autonomic symptoms in controls and in PD at baseline, visit 6 (24 months after baseline), and visit 12 (60 months after baseline), correcting for multiple comparisons. RESULTS Data from 421 people with PD at baseline, 360 at visit 6, 300 at visit 12, and 193 controls were included. When controlling for age, depression, and anti-hypertensive medications, depression predicted autonomic symptoms in all groups. Accounting for motor symptoms did not alter these associations. When comparing groups, the influence of depression on autonomic symptoms was stronger in all PD groups compared to controls, and strongest in PD at visit 12. Depression predicted the presence of orthostatic hypotension only in the PD group at visit 12. CONCLUSION We demonstrated the important impact of depression on autonomic symptoms in early and middle stages of PD, which are independent of motor symptoms. Though the physiologic basis of these two PD symptoms are not fully understood, our findings add to pathologic evidence of a shared mechanistic substrate, separate from that responsible for PD motor symptoms. These findings may influence clinical management and development of novel therapies.

Abstract
Introduction: Parkinson's disease (PD) is a chronic neurodegenerative disease involving a progressive alteration of the motor and non-motor function. PD influences the patient's daily living and reduces participation and quality of life in all phases of the disease. Early physical exercise can mitigate the effects of symptoms but access to specialist care is difficult. With current technological progress, telemedicine, and telerehabilitation is now a viable option for managing patients, although few studies have investigated the use of telerehabilitation in PD. In this systematic review, was investigated whether telerehabilitation leads to improvements in global or specific motor tasks (gait and balance, hand function) and non-motor dysfunction (motor speech disorder, dysphagia). The impact of TR on quality of life and patient satisfaction, were also assessed. The usage of telerehabilitation technologies in the management of cognitive impairment was not addressed. Method: An electronic database search was performed using the following databases: PubMed/MEDLINE, COCHRANE Library, PEDro, and SCOPUS for data published between January 2005 and December 2019 on the effects of telerehabilitation systems in managing motor and non-motor symptoms. This systematic review was conducted in accordance with the PRISMA guideline and was registered in the PROSPERO database (CRD42020141300). Results: A total of 15 articles involving 421 patients affected by PD were analyzed. The articles were divided into two categories based on their topic of interest or outcome. The first category consisted of the effects of telerehabilitation on gait and balance (3), dexterity of the upper limbs (3), and bradykinesia (0); the second category regarded non-motor symptoms such as speech disorders (8) and dysphagia (0). Quality of life (7) and patient satisfaction (8) following telerehabilitation programs were also analyzed, as well as feasibility and costs. Conclusion: Telerehabilitation is feasible in people affected by PD. Our analysis of the available data highlighted that telerehabilitation systems are effective in maintaining and/or improving some clinical and non-clinical aspects of PD (balance and gait, speech and voice, quality of life, patient satisfaction).

Abstract
The Non-Motor Symptoms Scale (NMSS) was developed and validated in 2007 as the first instrument for the comprehensive assessment of a range of non-motor symptoms in Parkinson's disease (PD). Thirteen years have elapsed since its introduction and extensive international validation with good psychometric attributes has been carried out. Here, we review the validation data of the NMSS and its cross-validity with other scales, and describe the key evidence derived from use of the NMSS in clinical studies. To date, over 100 clinical studies and trials have made use of it as an outcome measure, showing consistent and strong correlations between NMSS burden and health-related quality of life measures. Moreover, the scale has shown to be capable of detecting longitudinal changes in non-motor symptoms, where studies have shown differential changes over time of several of the NMSS domains. The scale has become a key outcome in several randomized clinical trials. Highlighting the prevalence and importance of non-motor symptoms to quality of life in patients with PD, the development of NMSS has also been useful in signposting clinical and biomarker based research addressing non-motor symptoms in PD.

[PMID: 33123339 PMCID: PMC7586173 DOI: 10.1155/2020/1694547] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/28/2020] [Revised: 10/03/2020] [Accepted: 10/05/2020] [Indexed: 01/08/2023]
Abstract
Purpose Autonomic dysfunction is a common nonmotor feature and early manifestation of Parkinsons disease (PD). Autonomic dysfunction in PD is associated with a worse prognosis. We sought to characterize autonomic dysfunction and identify associated factors in patients with early PD. Methods An observational, cross-sectional, descriptive, and analytical study was conducted to evaluate patients with early PD from the Parkinsons Progression Markers Initiative. We utilized the Scales for Outcomes in Parkinsons Disease-Autonomic dysfunction questionnaire to determine the prevalence and frequencies of autonomic symptomatology. The cohort was grouped into high and low dysautonomic scores. A regression model identified variables that independently explained dysautonomic scores in our early PD cohort. Results 414 PD patients had a mean age of 61.1 (SD 9.7) years at diagnosis and mean disease duration of 6.7 (SD 6.6) months. Among all patients, 43.7% (181/414) had high dysautonomic scores. Urinary and gastrointestinal symptoms were the most prevalent and frequently reported dysautonomic symptoms. Patients with fatigue (beta = 4.28, p < 0.001), probable rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (beta = 2.71, p < 0.001), excessive daytime sleepiness (beta = 1.88,p=0.039), impulsivity and compulsivity (beta = 2.42, p < 0.001), and increasing age (beta = 1.05, p < 0.001) were more likely to have high dysautonomic scores. Conclusion Lower urinary tract and gastrointestinal symptoms are prevalent and frequent in early PD patients. Fatigue, sleep disorders, impulsivity and compulsivity, and age are predictors of autonomic dysfunction. Autonomic symptoms predominated in this group of early PD patients in the disease course and were associated with more severe disease.

Abstract
Parkinson's disease (PD) is an alpha-synucleinopathy that leads to prominent motor symptoms including tremor, bradykinesia, and postural instability. Nonmotor symptoms including autonomic, neurocognitive, psychiatric symptoms, and sleep disturbances are also seen frequently in PD. The impact of PD on sleep is related to motor and nonmotor symptoms, in addition to the disruption of the pathways regulating sleep by central nervous system pathology. Rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder is a parasomnia that can lead to self-injury and/or injury to partners at night. Restless legs syndrome is a subjective sensation of discomfort and urge to move the legs prior to falling asleep and can lead to insomnia and reduced sleep quality. Excessive daytime sleepiness is common in PD and exerts a negative impact on quality of life in addition to increasing the risk of falls. Obstructive sleep apnea is a breathing disorder during sleep that can cause frequent awakenings and excessive daytime sleepiness. Circadian rhythm dysfunction can lead to an advanced or delayed onset of sleep in patients and create disruption of normal sleep and wake times. All of these disorders are common in PD and can significantly reduce sleep quantity, sleep quality, or quality of life for patients and caretakers. Treatment approaches for each of these disorders are distinct and should be individualized to the patient. We review the literature regarding these common sleep issues encountered in PD and their treatment options.

Personalized prediction of depression in patients with newly diagnosed Parkinson's disease: A prospective cohort study. J Affect Disord 2020; 268:118-126. [PMID: 32158001 DOI: 10.1016/j.jad.2020.02.046] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/18/2019] [Revised: 02/13/2020] [Accepted: 02/27/2020] [Indexed: 12/17/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Depressive disturbances in Parkinson's disease (dPD) have been identified as the most important determinant of quality of life in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). Prediction models to triage patients at risk of depression early in the disease course are needed for prognosis and stratification of participants in clinical trials. METHODS One machine learning algorithm called extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost) and the logistic regression technique were applied for the prediction of clinically significant depression (defined as The 15-item Geriatric Depression Scale [GDS-15] ≥ 5) using a prospective cohort study of 312 drug-naïve patients with newly diagnosed PD during 2-year follow-up from the Parkinson's Progression Markers Initiative (PPMI) database. Established models were assessed with out-of-sample validation and the whole sample was divided into training and testing samples by the ratio of 7:3. RESULTS Both XGBoost model and logistic regression model achieved good discrimination and calibration. 2 PD-specific factors (age at onset, duration) and 4 nonspecific factors (baseline GDS-15 score, State Trait Anxiety Inventory [STAI] score, Rapid Eye Movement Sleep Behavior Disorder Screening Questionnaire [RBDSQ] score, and history of depression) were identified as important predictors by two models. LIMITATIONS Access to several variables was limited by database. CONCLUSIONS In this longitudinal study, we developed promising tools to provide personalized estimates of depression in early PD and studied the relative contribution of PD-specific and nonspecific predictors, constituting a substantial addition to the current understanding of dPD.

Nocturia and Nocturnal Polyuria in Neurological Patients: From Epidemiology to Treatment. A Systematic Review of the Literature. Eur Urol Focus 2020; 6:922-934. [PMID: 32192920 DOI: 10.1016/j.euf.2020.02.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/11/2019] [Revised: 01/12/2020] [Accepted: 02/10/2020] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
CONTEXT Nocturia is among the most common and bothersome lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS), but there is no clear consensus on how to identify and manage this symptom in the neurological population. OBJECTIVE To systematically review the literature about nocturia in neurological patients. EVIDENCE ACQUISITION Studies were identified by electronic search of Cochrane and Medline databases. The studies were included if their participants had acquired neurological pathology among multiple sclerosis (MS), Parkinson's disease (PD), stroke, spinal cord injury (SCI), and reported data on the epidemiology, aetiology, diagnosis, or treatment of nocturia. An independent extraction of the articles was performed by two authors using predetermined datasets, including quality-of-study indicators. EVIDENCE SYNTHESIS A total of 132 studies were included; 46 evaluated the epidemiology of nocturia, 28 the possible aetiologies, 10 the diagnostic tools, and 60 the treatments. Nocturia prevalence ranged from 15% to 96% depending on the pathology and definition used. It was one of the most frequently reported LUTS in PD and stroke patients. Several validated questionnaires were found to screen for nocturia in this population. Causalities were numerous: LUT, renal, sleep, cardiovascular dysfunctions, etc. Treatments targeted these mechanisms, with an overall risk of bias assessed as high or serious. The highest level of evidence was seen in MS patients: pelvic floor muscle training, cannabinoids, and desmopressin were effective, but not melatonin. In stroke patients, transcutaneous sacral and transcutaneous tibial nerve stimulation (TTNS) improved nocturia; in PD patients, TTNS, solifenacin, and rotigotine did not. CONCLUSIONS Nocturia is highly prevalent in patients with neurological disorders. Causalities and treatments are not different from the general population, but are poorly studied in neurological patients. PATIENT SUMMARY In this report, we looked at the published studies about nocturia-the fact of waking to void during the hours of sleep-in patients with neurological diseases. We found that nocturia is very frequent in this population, that the causes are the same as in the general population but may be combined, and that treatments are also the same but have an overall weak level of evidence. We conclude that more research is needed on this topic.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the correlation between serum homocysteine (Hcy) and cognitive impairment (CI) in patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD).
METHODS Eighty-one PD patients were prospectively recruited in this study from Feb 2015 to Jan 2018 in Gansu Provincial Hospital. Of the subjects, 41 were diagnosed with cognitive impairment (PD-CI) vs. the 40 others without PD (PDN). The clinical characteristic and demographic features were recorded for the two groups. The serum Hcy, folate and vitamin B12 (VitB12) were examined by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).
RESULTS The serum Hcy, folate, VitB12 concentration were 21.7±6.2 (μmol/L), 9.2±3.7 (ng/mL), 354.1±123.5 (pg/mL) for PD-CI group and 14.1±5.7 (μmol/L), 12.4±4.5 (ng/mL), 378.7±128.2 (pg/mL) for PDN group respectively. The serum level of Hcy in PD-CI group was significantly higher than that of PDN group (p<0.05), serum folate was significantly lower than PDN group (p<0.05). The diagnostic sensitivity, specificity and AUC were 77.5% (95%CI:61.6%-89.2%), 78.1% (95%CI:62.4%-89.4%), 0.82 (95%CI:0.73-0.91) for serum Hcy and 72.5% (95%CI:56.1%-85.4%), 63.4% (95%CI:46.9%-77.9%), 0.71(95%CI:0060-0.83) for serum folate respectively as serological markers for cognitive impairment diagnosis in patients with PD.
Conclusion Serum Hcy and folate were different between PD-CI and PDN patients, which may play an important role in cognitive impairment development in patients with PD and can be used as promising serological diagnostic marker.
