    Abstract: Background: Parkinson's disease (PD) and sarcopenia are two common diseases in aging people. To date, the prevalence of sarcopenia in PD patients and the relationship between clinical features and sarcopenia in PD patients are not clear. The aim of the study was to (1) assess the prevalence of sarcopenia in PD patients and (2) reveal the clinical features between PD patients with and without sarcopenia. Method: A systematic review was carried out through screening PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane database in May 2020. All study designs (case–control, cohort, and cross-sectional studies) were eligible for meta-analysis. Data of patients' characteristics, sarcopenia criteria, sarcopenia prevalence, and sarcopenia measures were retrieved. The primary outcome was estimated prevalence of sarcopenia by a pooled prevalence (%) and its 95% confidence interval (CI), using a random-effects model. The secondary outcome was the differences in clinical features between PD patients with and without sarcopenia by meta-analysis. Included articles were assessed for risk of bias. Potential sources of variation were investigated by using subgroup analyses and meta-regression. Result: Ten studies were included in the review. Among them, nine were cross-sectional studies, and one was a prospective cohort study. Age of participants with PD in the studies ranged from 51.1 to 80.7 years. The estimated prevalence of sarcopenia ranged from 6 to 55.5%. The random-effects pooled prevalence was 29% (95% CIs: 0.18–0.40). When only studies at low risk of bias were considered, pooled prevalence decreased to 17% (95% CIs: 0.02–0.33), with still high heterogeneity. The incidence of falls in PD patients with sarcopenia was higher than that in PD patients without sarcopenia. There was no difference in sex ratio between PD patients with and without sarcopenia. Conclusion: Sarcopenia seems to be common in patients with PD. Early assessment of sarcopenia should be implemented in PD to avoid fall and disability.

    Abstract: Purpose: Falls are common and are frequently accompanied by injuries in patients with spinocerebellar ataxias type 3 (SCA3). We explored which factors could predict falls in a cohort of patients with SCA3 and developed a nomogram model to predict the first fall in non-fallen patients with SCA3. Method: We conducted a prospective cohort study. Forty-four non-fallen patients with SCA3 were followed up until the first fall or November 5, 2020, whichever came first. Univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazard regression analyses were applied to explore the predictive factors of falls in patients with SCA3. A nomogram model predicting the no-fall probabilities at 3, 6, 12, and 24 months was formulated based on the results of the multivariate Cox analysis. Internal validation was conducted to assess the discrimination and calibration of the final model using bootstrapping with 1,000 resamples. Results: Multivariate Cox proportional hazard regression showed that the presence of dystonia, hyperreflexia, urinary incontinence, and hidrosis and the number of abnormal eye movements predicted a more rapid progression to falls in patients with SCA3. The nomogram model showed good discrimination with a concordance index of 0.83 and good calibration. Conclusion: Patients with dystonia, hyperreflexia, urinary incontinence, and hidrosis, and more types of abnormal eye movement had a more rapid progression to falls in SCA3.

    Abstract: Background: Subjective cognitive complaints (SCCs), which are associated with a higher risk of cognitive decline, are widespread in the patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). The previous studies have reported inconsistent factors related to SCCs in the patients with late-onset PD (LOPD), and there is limited information on SCCs in the patients with early-onset PD (EOPD). Objective: We aimed to investigate the factors associated with SCCs in the drug-naïve patients with EOPD and LOPD without cognitive impairment. Methods: This cross-sectional study included 332 drug-naïve patients with PD, among whom 134 were EOPD and 198 were LOPD. Motor and non-motor symptoms, such as global objective cognitive status, depression, anxiety, apathy, fatigue, sleep, rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder, orthostatic hypotension, and excessive daytime sleepiness, were assessed. Results: Twenty-five (18.66%) patients with EOPD and 49 (24.74%) patients with LOPD reported SCCs. A multivariate binary logistic regression analysis revealed that older age at onset [odds ratio ( OR ) = 1.24, P = 0.002], higher apathy score ( OR = 1.13, P = 0.003), and lower scores in the visuospatial/executive abilities ( OR = 0.25, P & lt; 0.001) and memory ( OR = 0.50, P = 0.024) domains of the Montreal Cognitive Assessment were associated with a higher risk of SCCs in the EOPD group. Higher apathy ( OR = 1.06, P = 0.011) and anxiety ( OR = 1.14, P & lt; 0.001) scores were associated with SCCs in the LOPD group. Conclusion: Subjective cognitive complaints are only associated with mood disorders in patients with LOPD. In addition, SCCs may reflect subthreshold cognitive impairment in the patients with EOPD.

    Abstract: The different clinical characteristics and prognostic values of the motor-nonmotor subtypes of Parkinson’s disease (PD) have been established by previous studies. However, the consistency of motor-nonmotor subtypes in patients with early-stage Parkinson’s disease required further investigation. The present study aimed to evaluate the consistency of motor-nonmotor subtypes across five years of follow-up in a longitudinal cohort. Materials and methods Patients were classified into different subtypes (mild-motor–predominant, intermediate, diffuse malignant; or tremor-dominant, indeterminate, postural instability and gait difficulty) according to previously verified motor-nonmotor and motor subtyping methods at baseline and at every year of follow-up. The agreement between subtypes was examined using Cohen’s kappa and total agreement. The determinants of having the diffuse malignant subtype as of the fifth-year visit were explored using logistic regression. Results A total of 421 patients were included. There was a fair degree of agreement between the baseline motor-nonmotor subtype and the subtype recorded at the one-year follow-up visit (κ = 0.30 ± 0.09; total agreement, 60.6%) and at following years’ visits. The motor-nonmotor subtype had a lower agreement between baseline and follow-up than did the motor subtype. The baseline motor-nonmotor subtype was the determinant of diffuse malignant subtype at the fifth-year visit. Conclusion Many patients experienced a change in their motor-nonmotor subtype during follow-up. Further studies of consistency in PD subtyping methods should be conducted in the future.

    Abstract: The 2008 criteria for the diagnosis of multiple system atrophy (MSA) has been widely used for more than 10 years, but the sensitivity is low, particularly for patients in the early stage. Recently, a new MSA diagnostic criteria was developed. Objective The objective of the study was to assess and compare the diagnostic utility of the new movement disorder society (MDS) MSA criteria with the 2008 MSA criteria. Methods This study included patients diagnosed with MSA between January 2016 and October 2021. All patients underwent regular face-to-face or telephonic follow-ups every year until October 2022. A total of 587 patients (309 males and 278 females) were retrospectively reviewed to compare the diagnostic accuracy of the MDS MSA criteria to that of the 2008 MSA criteria (determined by the proportion of patients categorized as established or probable MSA). Autopsy is the gold standard diagnosis of MSA, which is not available in clinical practice. Thus, we applied the 2008 MSA criteria at the last review as the reference standard. Results The sensitivity of the MDS MSA criteria (93.2%, 95% CI = 90.5–95.2%) was significantly higher than that of the 2008 MSA criteria (83.5%, 95% CI = 79.8–86.6%) ( P & lt; 0.001). Additionally, the sensitivity of the MDS MSA criteria was maintained robustly across different subgroups, defined by diagnostic subtype, disease duration, and the type of symptom[s] at onset. Importantly, the specificities were not significantly different between the MDS MSA criteria and the 2008 MSA criteria ( P & gt; 0.05). Conclusion The present study demonstrated that the MDS MSA criteria exhibited good diagnostic utility for MSA. The new MDS MSA criteria should be considered as a useful diagnostic tool for clinical practice and future therapeutic trials.

    Abstract: Cognitive impairment (CI) in patients with cervical dystonia (CD) has been reported in many studies but with inconsistent findings. We investigated the prevalence, characteristics, and clinical factors related to CI in Chinese patients with CD. Methods Sixty-eight patients with CD and 68 healthy controls (HCs) were included in the study. Demographic and clinical data were investigated. A logistic regression analysis was conducted to discriminate the clinical factors associated with CI in patients with CD. A cluster analysis was performed to explore the different characteristics within the group of CD patients with CI. Results We found that 42 (61.76%) patients with CD had CI. The most frequent CI domain was visuospatial function (39.71%), followed by memory (38.24%), attention/working memory (29.41%), language (25.00%), and executive function (23.53%). CD patients with CI were older, less educated, had an older age of onset, more severe motor symptoms and disability, and experienced more pain than CD patients without CI. The presence of CI in patients with CD was associated with less education (OR = 0.802, p = 0.034) and a higher Toronto Western Spasmodic Torticollis Rating Scale (TWSTRS) severity subscore (OR = 1.305, p = 0.001). The cluster analysis identified two different subgroups of patients, one with relatively mild cognitive impairment and the other with relatively severe cognitive impairment. Conclusion CI is relatively common in Chinese patients with CD, with the most common CI domain of the visuospatial function. In the present study, CI in patients with CD was associated with less education and more severe motor symptoms, and patients with CI may be further divided into two subgroups based on different extent and domain of cognitive decline.

    Abstract: Self-stigma is common in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) and may lead to social isolation and delayed search for medical help. We conducted a 3-year prospective longitudinal study to investigate the development and evolution of self-stigma in patients with early stage PD and to explore the associated and predictive factors of self-stigma in PD. Method A total of 224 patients with early stage PD (disease duration & lt;3 years) were enrolled at baseline and followed up annually for 3 consecutive years. Self-stigma was assessed by the stigma subscale of the Parkinson's Disease Questionnaire (items 23–26). The generalized estimating equation model was used to investigate the associated factors of self-stigma over 3 years, and the binary logistic model was used to explore the predictors of self-stigma in patients with PD without self-stigma at baseline. Results The prevalence of self-stigma decreased from 58.0% at baseline to 49.2% after 3 years. The Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HDRS) score was the only associated factor [B: 0.160 (1.106–0.214), P & lt; 0.001] of self-stigma over 3 years and the only predictor [OR: 1.252 (1.044–1.502), P = 0.015] of the onset of self-stigma. Conclusion Self-stigma is very common in PD, but its prevalence tends to decrease as the disease progresses. Depression was the only associated and predictive factor of self-stigma in PD and could be an effective target of alleviating self-stigma.

    Abstract: Myotonic dystrophy (DM) encompasses a spectrum of neuromuscular diseases characterized by myotonia, muscle weakness, and wasting. Recent research has led to the recognition of DM as a neurological disorder. Cognitive impairment is a central nervous system condition that has been observed in various forms of DM. Neuroimaging studies have increasingly linked DM to alterations in white matter (WM) integrity and highlighted the relationship between cognitive impairment and abnormalities in WM structure. This review aims to summarize investigations into cognitive impairment and brain abnormalities in individuals with DM and to elucidate the correlation between these factors and the potential underlying mechanisms contributing to these abnormalities.
