Tall P, Qamar MA, Rosenzweig I, Raeder V, Sauerbier A, Heidemarie Z, Falup-Pecurariu C, Chaudhuri KR. The Park Sleep subtype in Parkinson's disease: from concept to clinic. Expert Opin Pharmacother 2023; 24:1725-1736. [PMID: 37561080 DOI: 10.1080/14656566.2023.2242786] [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: 04/10/2023] [Accepted: 07/27/2023] [Indexed: 08/11/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION The heterogeneity of Parkinson's disease (PD) is evident from descriptions of non-motor (NMS) subtypes and Park Sleep, originally identified by Sauerbier et al. 2016, is one such clinical subtype associated with the predominant clinical presentation of sleep dysfunctions including excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS), along with insomnia. AREAS COVERED A literature search was conducted using the PubMed, Medline, Embase, and Web of Science databases, accessed between 1 February 2023 and 28 March 2023. In this review, we describe the clinical subtype of Park Sleep and related 'tests' ranging from polysomnography to investigational neuromelanin MRI brain scans and some tissue-based biological markers. EXPERT OPINION Cholinergic, noradrenergic, and serotonergic systems are dominantly affected in PD. Park Sleep subtype is hypothesized to be associated primarily with serotonergic deficit, clinically manifesting as somnolence and narcoleptic events (sleep attacks), with or without rapid eye movement behavior disorder (RBD). In clinic, Park Sleep recognition may drive lifestyle changes (e.g. driving) along with therapy adjustments as Park Sleep patients may be sensitive to dopamine D3 active agonists, such as ropinirole and pramipexole. Specific dashboard scores based personalized management options need to be implemented and include pharmacological, non-pharmacological, and lifestyle linked advice.

[PMID: 34682832 PMCID: PMC8536960 DOI: 10.3390/jcm10204709] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/14/2021] [Revised: 10/01/2021] [Accepted: 10/12/2021] [Indexed: 12/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective: We aimed to investigate relationships between sleep disturbances and phenoconversion to neurodegenerative diseases in patients with REM sleep behavior disorder (RBD). Method: Using a comprehensive sleep database in a university-affiliated hospital between December 2014 and March 2021, we reviewed the data of 226 patients with RBD (182 patients with idiopathic RBD (iRBD) and 44 patients with symptomatic RBD (sRBD) with a neurodegenerative disease). Results: Among 226 patients with RBD (male, 61.5%), the mean age at RBD onset and mean disease duration were 59.4 ± 10.5 and 5.9 ± 5.6 years, respectively. Further, 111 (49.1%) patients had periodic limb movements during sleep (PLMS, PLM index ≥ 15/h), while 110 patients (48.7%) had comorbid obstructive sleep apnea (OSA, respiratory disturbance index ≥ 15/h). There was a positive correlation between age at RBD onset and the apnea-hypopnea index and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. Compared to patients with iRBD, patients with sRBD showed a lower N3 sleep (3.3 ± 5.0 vs. 1.6 ± 3.1%, p = 0.004) and higher periodic limb movement index (36.3 ± 31.8 vs. 56.9 ± 47.5/h, p = 0.021) at the baseline. Among the 186 patients with iRBD, 18 (8.0%) developed neurodegenerative diseases (converters, mean follow-up duration: 2.5 ± 1.6 years) and 164 did not (non-converters, mean follow-up 2.4 ± 2.2 years). There was no significant between-group difference in the demographics and baseline clinical features. Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy was prescribed in 101 patients with OSA; among them, 71 (70%) patients agreed to use it. CPAP improved dream enactment behaviors. Conclusion: In our study, 8.0% of patients with iRBD showed phenoconversion within a mean follow-up duration of 2.5 years. Polysomnographic parameters could not predict phenoconversion to neurodegenerative disease. However, approximately half of the patients with RBD presented with significant sleep disorders, including OSA or PLMS. CPAP therapy may alleviate RBD symptoms in patients with RBD-OSA.

The Correlation Between Parkinson's Disease and Rapid Eye Movement Sleep Behavior Disorder: A Systematic Review. Cureus 2021; 13:e17026.

Abstract
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disease caused due to the destruction of dopaminergic neurons and the deposition of α-synuclein proteins, known as Lewy bodies. Generally, the diagnosis of PD is centered around motor symptoms. However, the early recognition of non-motor symptoms such as autonomic dysfunction, sleep disturbances, and cognitive and psychiatric disturbances are gaining increased attention for the early diagnosis of PD. Rapid eye movement (REM) sleep behavior disorder or REM sleep behavior disorder (RBD) is described as parasomnia, which is a condition of loss of normal muscle atonia causing the person to act out vivid dreams and it has been seen to be associated with the misprocessing of intercellular α-synuclein leading to neurodegenerative diseases such as PD. This review's objective is to highlight the significance of RBD as a prodromal premotor marker for the early detection of PD. We used PubMed as our primary database to search for articles on May 2, 2021, and a total of 1849 articles were found in our initial search using keywords and medical subject heading (MeSH) keywords. Thereafter, we removed the duplicates, applied the inclusion/exclusion criteria, and did a quality appraisal to include 10 articles in this study. We concluded that the recognition and diagnosis of RBD are of paramount importance to detect early PD, and further longitudinal studies and clinical trials are of utmost importance to understand their correlation; also, treatment trials are needed to prevent the phenoconversion of RBD into PD.

Abstract
Rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (RBD) is a sleep behavior disorder characterized by abnormal behaviors and loss of muscle atonia during rapid eye movement (REM) sleep. RBD is generally considered to be associated with synucleinopathies, such as Parkinson’s disease (PD), dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB), and multiple system atrophy (MSA), and usually precedes years before the first symptom of these diseases. It is believed that RBD predicts the neurodegeneration in synucleinopathy. However, increasing evidences have shown that RBD is also found in non-synucleinopathy neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer’s disease (AD), Huntington’s disease (HD), amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), etc. Sleep disturbance such as RBD may be an early sign of neurodegeneration in these diseases, and also serve as an assessment of cognitive impairments. In this review, we updated the clinical characteristics, diagnosis, and possible mechanisms of RBD in neurogenerative diseases. A better understanding of RBD in these neurogenerative diseases will provide biomarkers and novel therapeutics for the early diagnosis and treatment of the diseases.

Dede HÖ, Benbir Senel G, Karadeniz D. Rapid eye movement sleep without atonia constitutes increased risk for neurodegenerative disorders. Acta Neurol Scand 2019; 140:399-404. [PMID: 31411727 DOI: 10.1111/ane.13156] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/02/2019] [Revised: 07/28/2019] [Accepted: 08/11/2019] [Indexed: 01/16/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES REM (rapid eye movement) sleep without atonia (RSWA) is a polysomnographic finding used in diagnosis of REM sleep behavior disorder (RBD). Clinical significance of idiopathic RSWA (iRSWA) unaccompanied by RBD is not known. We designed a prospective study to investigate whether iRSWA constitutes an increased risk for developing neurodegenerative disorders. MATERIALS AND METHODS Between January 2010 and December 2014, a total of 4362 patients underwent a full-night video-polysomnography. Upon detailed clinical and polysomnographical examination, patients with iRSWA and idiopathic RBD (iRBD) were enrolled into this study and followed up at every six months for at least 4 years up to 9 years. RESULTS We had a total of 31 patients with iRBD and 67 patients with iRSWA. Mean age was higher in iRBD group than those in iRSWA group (P = .016). Restless legs syndrome/Willis-Ekbom disease was significantly more common in patients with iRBD than those in patient with iRSWA (P < .001). Eighteen patients with iRSWA (26.8%) developed iRBD after 2.6 + 2.2 years. Six patients with iRSWA (8.9%) developed neurodegenerative disorders following 2.4 + 1.5 years; four were diagnosed as Parkinson's disease (PD) and two developed probable Alzheimer-type dementia. In patients with iRBD, eight patients (25.8%) developed neurodegenerative disorders-all was Parkinson's disease-following 2.6 + 2.2 years. Development of neurodegenerative diseases was positively correlated with age (P < .001) and periodic leg movements in sleep in both groups (P < .010). CONCLUSIONS These results show that iRSWA may also be accepted as a risk factor in the development of PD or neurodegenerative diseases. Advanced age and periodic leg movements in sleep seem to be correlated with higher risk.
