[PMID: 34823156 DOI: 10.1016/j.clineuro.2021.107024] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/08/2021] [Revised: 10/20/2021] [Accepted: 11/03/2021] [Indexed: 01/01/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Olfactory impairment is common in Parkinson's disease (PD). The authors aimed to identify the clinical tests used to assess olfactory function and examine their ability to distinguish PD with different disease duration from healthy individuals with physiological aging. METHODS Cross-sectional studies published until May 2020 that assessed the olfaction of individuals with PD using search terms related to PD, olfactory function, and assessment were searched on PubMed, PsycInfo, Cinahl, and Web of Science databases. RESULTS Twelve smell tests were identified from the reviewed studies (n = 125) that assessed 8776 individuals with PD. Data of 6593 individuals with PD and 8731 healthy individuals were included in the meta-analyses. Individuals with PD presented worse performance than healthy individuals, regardless of the smell test used. The University of Pennsylvania Smell Identification Test (UPSIT) was used by most studies (n = 2310 individuals with PD) and presented smaller heterogeneity. When the studies were subclassified according to the years of PD duration, there were no significant differences. CONCLUSION All smell tests were able to discriminate the olfactory function of PD from that of healthy individuals, although the UPSIT was widely used. The abnormal olfaction was not related to the disease duration. Systematic review protocol registration (PROSPERO/2020-CRD42020160878).

Abstract
Abstract Introduction : Parkinson's disease is one of the fastest growing neurological disorders in the world and is considered to be predominantly a motor disorder, classified as neurodegenerative, chronic and extrapyramidal, characterized by tremors, muscular rigidity, postural balance deficit and bradykinesia. Objective : To analyze the functional changes presented by Parkinson's disease patients in the different evolutionary stages of the disease. Methods : The sample included 30 patients of both genders, aged between 51 and 75 years, with clinical diagnoses of Parkinson's disease in different evolutionary stages, undergoing physiotherapy in the Pernambuco Parkinson Association. The patients were evaluated through the Hoehn and Yahr Staging Scale and the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS). Results : The results highlighted an increase in the presence and severity of the changes presented by the Parkinson's disease patients, according to the evolution of the stages of the disease, especially considering aspects relating to motor activity and activities of daily living, including changes related to speech, swallowing, the ability to get dressed, personal hygiene, turning in bed and arising from a chair, occurrence of falls, posture, gait, postural stability and the presence of bradykinesia/hypokinesia. Conclusion : It is believed that the classification of the evolutionary stage of patients through the Hoehn and Yahr Scale and the registration of functional change through the UPDRS are useful for the development of the physiotherapy treatment plan.

Abstract
OBJETIVO: Avaliar o estado nutricional e ingestão alimentar dos idosos portadores da doença de Parkinson. MÉTODOS: Estudo transversal, realizado com pacientes portadores da doença de Parkinson (DP), atendidos em ambulatório. O estado nutricional foi avaliado utilizando a mini-avaliação nutricional (MAN), registro de consumo alimentar estimado de três dias e antropometria. Para avaliação da adequação de ingestão de nutrientes e energia, utilizou-se a ingestão dietética de referência, considerando valores da ingestão adequada, requerimento médio estimado e ingestão dietética recomendada. RESULTADOS: Foram avaliados 36 indivíduos, com idade média de 70,9±7,3 anos, sendo que 55% dos pacientes apresentaram risco de desnutrição de acordo com a MAN. Todavia, quando classificados pelo índice de massa corporal (IMC), 33% dos pacientes apresentaram sobrepeso e 39% não apresentaram perda nos últimos três meses. A ingestão energética foi de 1.632 e 1.840kcal/dia; proteínas, 71,2 e 61,9g/dia; ferro, 15,8 e 15,6mg/dia; sódio, 1.798 e 1.843mg/dia, para homens e mulheres, respectivamente, e ficaram acima das recomendações. Verificou-se ingestão inferior à recomendação para fibras (13,5 e 13,6g/dia), cálcio (694 e 552mg/dia) e potássio (1.637 e 1.476mg/dia). A ingestão energética apresentou correlação com ferro e proteína (r=0,581 e r=0,582) e a proteína apresentou correlação com a ingestão de ferro (r=0,600). CONCLUSÃO: Embora a ingestão energética da maioria se apresente adequada, observou-se o desequilíbrio dietético, com consumo insuficiente de fibras, cálcio e potássio. Além disso, metade da população encontrava-se em risco nutricional, segundo a MAN.

Abstract
Este estudo objetiva realizar levantamento bibliográfico para verificar a possível influência da Levodopa sobre a fase oral da deglutição de indivíduos com Doença de Parkinson. Foi realizado levantamento bibliográfico em periódicos indexados no Science Direct, periódicos Capes, LILACS, SciELO, MedLine e Scopus e livros. Para busca foram utilizados os termos disfagia, medicamentos, levodopa, Parkinson, dysphagia, drugs, swallowing disorders, Parkinson's disease, disfagia, las drogas e enfermedad de parkinson. Foram identificados 16 artigos internacionais e 25 nacionais, após a leitura de todos os artigos identificados foram selecionados 32, utilizaram-se ainda quatro livros e um resumo de anais de congresso. Para tal seleção utilizou-se como critério de inclusão aqueles artigos que considerassem o comprometimento causado pela Doença de Parkinson, especialmente na fase oral da deglutição, bem como os efeitos da levodopa sobre a mesma, e como critério de exclusão a influência do fármaco na fase faríngea, pois geralmente ele parece ter maior efeito na fase oral. Existe discordância na literatura quanto aos possíveis efeitos da Levodopa na deglutição. Quando estes ocorrem, geralmente afetam a fase oral desta função, uma vez que as dificuldades que o portador da Doença de Parkinson já apresenta são maximizadas pela xerostomia decorrente da administração deste fármaco. Em virtude da grande diversidade dos resultados dos estudos encontrados, faz-se necessária a realização de estudos controlados para uma elucidação mais detalhada dos efeitos da Levodopa na deglutição.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the voice quality of patients with idiopathic Parkinson's disease, at the "on" and "off" moments of the disease. METHOD: Five individuals with Parkinson's disease and five of the control group were assessed. All of them underwent the recording of voice and speech. The acoustic parameters analyzed were: fundamental frequency, jitter, shimmer, harmonic noise proportion and index of tremor, besides performing the hearing-perceptual analysis by means of GRBASI scale. The findings were analyzed using statistics through t test and the level of significance adopted was p<0.05. RESULTS: There was no difference in the acoustic parameters in the three analyzed groups. In the hearing-perceptual analysis, patients with idiopathic Parkinson's disease showed altered voice quality and the ones from the control group, neutral vocal quality. CONCLUSION: Patients with idiopathic Parkinson's disease present rough, breathy and unstable vocal quality in both stages. In the acoustic analysis, there are no differences in the studied parameters.

Abstract
Pain may precede the diagnosis in Parkinson's disease (PD). The goal of this study was to assess the pain in a group of 20 females and 30 males with PD, after excluding co-morbidities as causes. It was used the following tools: Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale, McGill questionnaire and Beck Depression Inventory. In 27 patients (54%), the pain was associated with PD, occurring in 22 (44%) in the off period and 5 (10%) in both on and off periods. The off period resulted in an increased frequency of pain, which was related to stiffness. There was no association between pain and tremor in off period, neither between pain and Modified Hoehn and Yahr stage, nor the Schwab and England scale. It was not observed an association between pain and depression, neither between pain and dyskinesia. It was noticed the improvement in pain in 16 patients with levodopa (59.26%).

Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effectiveness of the vestibular rehabilitation (VR) exercises by means of an assessment before and after the application of the Brazilian version of the Dizziness Handicap Inventory (DHI) questionnaire. METHOD: Twelve patients were studied, the following procedures were carried out: anamnesis, otorhinolaryngological and vestibular evaluation, and the application of the DHI before and after the VR. RESULTS: Clinically resting tremors and subjective postural instability were the motor complaints most frequently associated with complaints of vertigo in 12 cases (100%); in the vestibular exam, all the patients presented abnormalities, frequently from the uni and bilateral peripheral vestibular deficiency syndromes in 10 cases (83.3%); there was significant improvement in the physical, functional and emotional aspects of the DHI after the completion of the VR. CONCLUSION: The VR following the Cawthorne and Cooksey protocol were shown to be useful in managing subjective complaints of several aspects evaluated in this protocol.

Autoimmune pathology accounts for common manifestations in a wide range of neuro-psychiatric disorders: the olfactory and immune system interrelationship. Clin Immunol 2008; 130:235-43.

Abstract
Smell has traditionally been considered a less important sense when compared to sight or hearing, but recent research has unraveled important features inherent to the sense of smell. Once considered just a chemical sensor for sampling the environment, data from animal models and human studies currently imply numerous and complex effects of smell on behavior, mood, and on the immune response. In this review we discuss a possible inter-relationship between olfactory impairment, autoimmunity and neurological/psychiatric symptoms in several diseases affecting the central nervous system (CNS) such as Parkinson, Alzheimer's disease, autism, schizophrenia, multiple sclerosis and neuropsychiatric lupus erythematosus. We suggest that common manifestations are not mere coincidences. Current data from animal models show that neuropsychiatric manifestations are intimately associated with smell impairment, and autoimmune dysregulation, via autoantibodies (anti-NMDAR, anti-ribosomal P) or other mechanisms. From clues of pathological manifestations, we propose a novel approach to the understanding of the interactions between the CNS, the smell and the immune system.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION: Pain is a common symptom in Parkinson's disease (PD), and is often related to the illness itself. OBJECTIVE: To prospectively establish the ocurrence of pain in PD patients. METHOD: This study was conducted within a population composed of 50 patients with PD to evaluate the presence of pain. RESULTS: Twenty-eight patients reported pain; comparing the group with pain and the group without pain, there were no differences related to the beginning of the illness and the motor symptoms of PD. However, many patients related an improvement of pain when antiparkinsonian therapy was initiated or adjusted. CONCLUSION: The use of techniques for analgesia and the adjustment of PD medication contribute to improve the manifestations of pain and the life quality of patients with PD.
