Abstract One of the particular characteristics of Parkinson's disease (PD) is the wide clinical variation as regards the treatment that can be found in the same patient. This occurs with specific ...treatment for PD, as well as with other drug groups that can make motor function worse. For this reason, the perioperative management of PD requires experience and above all appropriate planning. In this article, the peculiarities of PD and its treatment are reviewed, and a strategy is set out for the perioperative management of these patients.
A good response to levodopa is a key factor to indicate device-aided therapies in people with Parkinson's disease (PwPD). The aim of the present study was to analyze the response to levodopa in PwPD ...with motor fluctuations followed for 4 years.
PwPD with motor fluctuations recruited from January 2016 to November 2017 from the COPPADIS cohort and assessed annually (from baseline to 4-year follow-up) during the OFF and ON states were included in this analysis. At each visit, the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale – part III (UPDRS-III) was applied during the OFF state (without medication during the last 12 h) and during the ON state. General linear model repeated measures were used to test for changes in the mean UPDRS–III–OFF, UPDRS–III–ON, and ΔUPDRS-III (UPDRS–III–OFF – UPDRS–III–ON) between visits. Levodopa equivalent daily dose (LEDD) was included as covariate.
Sixty-three patients (63.94 ± 8.42 years old; 68.3% males) were included. Mean disease duration was 7.81 ± 3.64 years. From baseline to 4-year follow-up visit, a significant increase in both the UPDRS–III–OFF (from 27.98 ± 9.58 to 31.75 ± 12.39; p = 0.003) and the UPDRS–III–ON (from 15.92 ± 7.93 to 18.84 ± 8.17; p = 0.006) was observed despite the significant increase in the LEDD (from 896.35 ± 355.65 to 1085.51 ± 488.29; p = 0.003). However, no significant differences were detected between visits in the ΔUPDRS-III.
In this cohort of PwPD with motor fluctuations, the response to levodopa did not weaken after a 4-year follow-up.
•A good response to levodopa is a key factor to indicate device-aided or on-demand therapies in Parkinson's disease.•Response to levodopa did not weaken after a 4-year follow-up in 63 fluctuators PD patients.•On and off scores worsen at the expense of axial symptoms and in parallel with conservation of the levodopa response.•There were no differences by motor phenotype.
Sex plays a role in Parkinson's disease (PD) mechanisms. We analyzed sex difference manifestations among Spanish patients with PD.
PD patients who were recruited from the Spanish cohort COPPADIS from ...January 2016 to November 2017 were included. A cross-sectional and a two-year follow-up analysis were conducted. Univariate analyses and general linear model repeated measure were used.
At baseline, data from 681 PD patients (mean age 62.54 ± 8.93) fit the criteria for analysis. Of them, 410 (60.2%) were males and 271 (39.8%) females. There were no differences between the groups in mean age (62.36 ± 8.73 vs. 62.8 ± 9.24;
= 0.297) or in the time from symptoms onset (5.66 ± 4.65 vs. 5.21 ± 4.11;
= 0.259). Symptoms such as depression (
< 0.0001), fatigue (
< 0.0001), and pain (
< 0.00001) were more frequent and/or severe in females, whereas other symptoms such as hypomimia (
< 0.0001), speech problems (
< 0.0001), rigidity (
< 0.0001), and hypersexuality (
< 0.0001) were more noted in males. Women received a lower levodopa equivalent daily dose (
= 0.002). Perception of quality of life was generally worse in females (PDQ-39,
= 0.002; EUROHIS-QOL8,
= 0.009). After the two-year follow-up, the NMS burden (Non-Motor Symptoms Scale total score) increased more significantly in males (
= 0.012) but the functional capacity (Schwab and England Activities of Daily Living Scale) was more impaired in females (
= 0.001).
The present study demonstrates that there are important sex differences in PD. Long-term prospective comparative studies are needed.
Background and Objective: Non-motor symptoms (NMS) progress in different ways between Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients. The aim of the present study was to (1) analyze the change in global NMS ...burden in a PD cohort after a 2-year follow-up, (2) to compare the changes with a control group, and (3) to identify predictors of global NMS burden progression in the PD group. Material and Methods: PD patients and controls, recruited from 35 centers of Spain from the COPPADIS cohort from January 2016 to November 2017, were followed-up with after 2 years. The Non-Motor Symptoms Scale (NMSS) was administered at baseline (V0) and at 24 months ± 1 month (V2). Linear regression models were used for determining predictive factors of global NMS burden progression (NMSS total score change from V0 to V2 as dependent variable). Results: After the 2-year follow-up, the mean NMS burden (NMSS total score) significantly increased in PD patients by 18.8% (from 45.08 ± 37.62 to 53.55 ± 42.28; p < 0.0001; N = 501; 60.2% males, mean age 62.59 ± 8.91) compared to no change observed in controls (from 14.74 ± 18.72 to 14.65 ± 21.82; p = 0.428; N = 122; 49.5% males, mean age 60.99 ± 8.32) (p < 0.0001). NMSS total score at baseline (β = −0.52), change from V0 to V2 in PDSS (Parkinson’s Disease Sleep Scale) (β = −0.34), and change from V0 to V2 in NPI (Neuropsychiatric Inventory) (β = 0.25) provided the highest contributions to the model (adjusted R-squared 0.41; Durbin-Watson test = 1.865). Conclusions: Global NMS burden demonstrates short-term progression in PD patients but not in controls and identifies worsening sleep problems and neuropsychiatric symptoms as significant independent predictors of this NMS progression.
BACKGROUNDParkinson's disease (PD) patients, especially those on dopamine agonists (DA), are at risk of impulse control disorders (ICD). Little attention has been paid to the influence of ...environmental factors. CASESRetrospective analysis of consecutive PD patients seen in our outpatient Movement Disorders Clinic during 2 months (September-November 2020) to explore the frequency of ICD during the preceding 2-month lockdown period, and comparison with an equivalent control group (September-November 2019). Among 114 patients assessed, 15 (13%) presented ICD during the lockdown, versus 6 (4.5%, P 0.02) in the control group. When analyzing only patients on DA, ICD occurrence increased to 31% (vs. 9.6% pre-lockdown, P 0.026). ICD during lockdown required drug regime adjustment in 80% (vs. 16.7% pre-lockdown, P 0.014). CONCLUSIONDuring COVID-19 lockdown, the occurrence of ICD in PD patients taking DA was higher than expected, and with increased severity. Environmental stressors may play a role in ICD presentation in vulnerable patients.
Visual hallucinations (VH) and subjective cognitive complaints (SCC) are associated with cognitive impairment (CI) in Parkinson's disease. Our aims were to determine the association between VH and ...SCC and the risk of CI development in a cohort of patients with Parkinson's disease and normal cognition (PD-NC).
Patients with PD-NC (total score of >80 on the Parkinson's Disease Cognitive Rating Scale PD-CRS) recruited from the Spanish COPPADIS cohort from January 2016 to November 2017 were followed up after 2 years. Subjects with a score of ≥1 on domain 5 and item 13 of the Non-Motor Symptoms Scale at baseline (V0) were considered as "with SCC" and "with VH," respectively. CI at the 2-year follow-up (plus or minus 1 month) (V2) was defined as a PD-CRS total score of <81.
At V0 (
=376, 58.2% males, age 61.14±8.73 years mean±SD), the frequencies of VH and SCC were 13.6% and 62.2%, respectively. VH were more frequent in patients with SCC than in those without: 18.8% (44/234) vs 4.9% (7/142),
<0.0001. At V2, 15.2% (57/376) of the patients had developed CI. VH presenting at V0 was associated with a higher risk of CI at V2 (odds ratio OR=2.68, 95% confidence interval=1.05-6.83,
=0.0.039) after controlling for the effects of age, disease duration, education, medication, motor and nonmotor status, mood, and PD-CRS total score at V0. Although SCC were not associated with CI at V2, presenting both VH and SCC at V0 increased the probability of having CI at V2 (OR=3.71, 95% confidence interval=1.36-10.17,
=0.011).
VH were associated with the development of SCC and CI at the 2-year follow-up in patients with PD-NC.
Background and objective
Recently, we demonstrated that staging Parkinson's disease (PD) with a novel simple classification called MNCD, based on four axes (motor, non‐motor, cognition, and ...dependency) and five stages, correlated with disease severity and patients’ quality of life. Here, we analyzed the correlation of MNCD staging with PD caregiver's status.
Patients and methods
Data from the baseline visit of PD patients and their principal caregiver recruited from 35 centers in Spain from the COPPADIS cohort from January 2016 to November 2017 were used to apply the MNCD total score (from 0 to 12) and MNCD stages (from 1 to 5) in this cross‐sectional analysis. Caregivers completed the Zarit Caregiver Burden Inventory (ZCBI), Caregiver Strain Index (CSI), Beck Depression Inventory‐II (BDI‐II), PQ‐10, and EUROHIS‐QOL 8‐item index (EUROHIS‐QOL8).
Results
Two hundred and twenty‐four PD patients (63 ± 9.6 years old; 61.2% males) and their caregivers (58.5 ± 12.1 years old; 67.9% females) were included. The frequency of MNCD stages was 1, 7.6%; 2, 58.9%; 3, 31.3%; and 4–5, 2.2%. A more advanced MNCD stage was associated with a higher score on the ZCBI (p < .0001) and CSI (p < .0001), and a lower score on the PQ‐10 (p = .001), but no significant differences were observed in the BDI‐II (p = .310) and EUROHIS‐QOL8 (p = .133). Moderate correlations were observed between the MNCD total score and the ZCBI (r = .496; p < .0001), CSI (r = .433; p < .0001), and BDI‐II (r = .306; p < .0001) in caregivers.
Conclusion
Staging PD according to the MNCD classification is correlated with caregivers’ strain and burden.
Recently, it has been reported that staging Parkinson's disease (PD) with a novel simple classification called MNCD, based on 4 axes (Motor; Non‐motor; Cognition; Dependency) and 5 stages, correlated with disease severity and patients' quality of life. In this new manuscript, we observed that staging PD according to the MNCD classification correlated with caregivers' strain and burden.
