The Impact of Fatigue on Sleep and Other Non-Motor Symptoms in Parkinson's Disease. Brain Sci 2024; 14:397. [PMID: 38672046 PMCID: PMC11048391 DOI: 10.3390/brainsci14040397] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/26/2024] [Revised: 04/10/2024] [Accepted: 04/15/2024] [Indexed: 04/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Fatigue is a common non-motor symptom in Parkinson's disease (PD), but even so, it may still be underdiagnosed or misdiagnosed in current practice due to its non-specific manifestations. The aims of this study were to investigate the prevalence of fatigue in PD patients compared to healthy controls and to identify the main characteristics and associations of fatigue with other non-motor symptoms and the impact of fatigue on sleep disturbances in Parkinson's disease. MATERIALS AND METHODS case-control study in which 131 PD patients and 131 age- and sex-matched controls were enrolled. Main characteristics of fatigue, sleep, and other non-motor symptoms were assessed using specific validated questionnaires. RESULTS According to the Chalder fatigue scale, fatigue is more prevalent in PD patients (38.16%) compared to healthy controls (26.71%). Fatigue was identified in 46.54% of the PD patients using the Parkinson's Fatigue Scale (PFS-16). PD patients with fatigue presented a worse motor status, more sleep disturbances (insomnia, daytime sleepiness), a broader spectrum of non-motor symptoms (pain, anxiety, urinary disturbances), worse cognitive performances, a lower level of happiness, and worse quality of life compared to PD patients without fatigue. CONCLUSION Fatigue is a common symptom of PD and needs to be assessed, considering its consequences on quality of life. Sleep disturbances have a great influence over fatigue in PD patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aims to compare frequency and coexistence of geriatric syndromes in older patients with dementia to those without dementia. METHODS 1392 patients admitted to geriatric outpatient clinics were evaluated. Evaluations for eleven geriatric syndromes including polypharmacy, malnutrition, fraility, sarcopenia, dysphagia, urinary incontinence, fear of falling, falls, insomnia, excessive daytime sleepiness, and orthostatic hypotension (OH) were carried out in consultation with the patient and the caregiver. Two groups with and without dementia were matched according to age and gender using the propensity score matching method. RESULTS A total of 738 patients, 369 with dementia and 369 without dementia were included, of whom 70.1% were female and the mean age was 80.5 ± 6.8. Polypharmacy, malnutrition, frailty, sarcopenia, dysphagia, fear of falling, and excessive daytime sleepiness were significantly higher in patients with dementia (p < 0.05). There was no difference between OH, urinary incontinence and insomnia between groups (p > 0.05). The co-existence of 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 and ≥ 5 geriatric syndromes in the same patient was 4.3%, 10.2%, 11.8%, 16.8%, 13.4% and 43.7% in non-dementia patients, respectively; 2.4%, 7.2%, 9.6%, 8.3%, 10.4% and 62.1% in those with dementia, respectively (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION The presence and co-existence of geriatric syndromes is common in patients with dementia. These geriatric syndromes should be examined by clinicians and healthcare professionals who work with the demented population, so that more successful management of dementia patients may be achieved.

Abstract
The boundaries between waking and sleeping-when falling asleep (hypnagogic) or waking up (hypnopompic)-can be challenging for our ability to monitor and interpret reality. Without proper understanding, bizarre but relatively normal hypnagogic/hypnopompic experiences can be misinterpreted as psychotic hallucinations (occurring, by definition, in the fully awake state), potentially leading to stigma and misdiagnosis in clinical contexts and to misconception and bias in research contexts. This Perspective proposes that conceptual and practical understanding for differentiating hallucinations from hypnagogic/hypnopompic experiences may be offered by lucid dreaming, the state in which one is aware of dreaming while sleeping. I first introduce a possible systematization of the phenomenological range of hypnagogic/hypnopompic experiences that can occur in the transition from awake to REM dreaming (including hypnagogic perceptions, transition symptoms, sleep paralysis, false awakenings, and out-of-body experiences). I then outline how metacognitive strategies used by lucid dreamers to gain/confirm oneiric lucidity could be tested for better differentiating hypnagogic/hypnopompic experiences from hallucinations. The relevance of hypnagogic/hypnopompic experiences and lucid dreaming is analyzed for schizophrenia and narcolepsy, and discussed for neurodegenerative diseases, particularly Lewy-body disorders (i.e. Parkinson's disease, Parkinson's disease dementia, and dementia with Lewy bodies), offering testable hypotheses for empirical investigation. Finally, emotionally positive lucid dreams triggered or enhanced by training/induction strategies or by a pathological process may have intrinsic therapeutic value if properly recognized and guided. The overall intention is to raise awareness and foster further research about the possible diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic implications of hypnagogic/hypnopompic experiences and lucid dreaming for brain disorders.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Accurate diagnosis of Parkinson's disease (PD) is challenging due to its diverse manifestations. Machine learning (ML) algorithms can improve diagnostic precision, but their generalizability across medical centers in China is underexplored. OBJECTIVE To assess the accuracy of an ML algorithm for PD diagnosis, trained and tested on data from different medical centers in China. METHODS A total of 1656 participants were included, with 1028 from Beijing (training set) and 628 from Fuzhou (external validation set). Models were trained using the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator-logistic regression (LASSO-LR), decision tree (DT), random forest (RF), eXtreme gradient boosting (XGboost), support vector machine (SVM), and k-nearest neighbor (KNN) techniques. Hyperparameters were optimized using five-fold cross-validation and grid search techniques. Model performance was evaluated using the area under the curve (AUC) of the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, accuracy, sensitivity (recall), specificity, precision, and F1 score. Variable importance was assessed for all models. RESULTS SVM demonstrated the best differentiation between healthy controls (HCs) and PD patients (AUC: 0.928, 95% CI: 0.908-0.947; accuracy: 0.844, 95% CI: 0.814-0.871; sensitivity: 0.826, 95% CI: 0.786-0.866; specificity: 0.861, 95% CI: 0.820-0.898; precision: 0.849, 95% CI: 0.807-0.891; F1 score: 0.837, 95% CI: 0.803-0.868) in the validation set. Constipation, olfactory decline, and daytime somnolence significantly influenced predictability. CONCLUSION We identified multiple pivotal variables and SVM as a precise and clinician-friendly ML algorithm for prediction of PD in Chinese patients.

Abstract
Populations with common physical diseases - such as cardiovascular diseases, cancer and neurodegenerative disorders - experience substantially higher rates of major depressive disorder (MDD) than the general population. On the other hand, people living with MDD have a greater risk for many physical diseases. This high level of comorbidity is associated with worse outcomes, reduced adherence to treatment, increased mortality, and greater health care utilization and costs. Comorbidity can also result in a range of clinical challenges, such as a more complicated therapeutic alliance, issues pertaining to adaptive health behaviors, drug-drug interactions and adverse events induced by medications used for physical and mental disorders. Potential explanations for the high prevalence of the above comorbidity involve shared genetic and biological pathways. These latter include inflammation, the gut microbiome, mitochondrial function and energy metabolism, hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis dysregulation, and brain structure and function. Furthermore, MDD and physical diseases have in common several antecedents related to social factors (e.g., socioeconomic status), lifestyle variables (e.g., physical activity, diet, sleep), and stressful live events (e.g., childhood trauma). Pharmacotherapies and psychotherapies are effective treatments for comorbid MDD, and the introduction of lifestyle interventions as well as collaborative care models and digital technologies provide promising strategies for improving management. This paper aims to provide a detailed overview of the epidemiology of the comorbidity of MDD and specific physical diseases, including prevalence and bidirectional risk; of shared biological pathways potentially implicated in the pathogenesis of MDD and common physical diseases; of socio-environmental factors that serve as both shared risk and protective factors; and of management of MDD and physical diseases, including prevention and treatment. We conclude with future directions and emerging research related to optimal care of people with comorbid MDD and physical diseases.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the factors correlated with excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). METHODS A total of 239 PD patients were divided into two groups based on the presence of EDS (Epworth Sleepiness Scale score≥10) (PD-EDS vs. PD-non-EDS). Participants underwent an extensive assessment to determine demographic features, disease severity, polysomnography characteristics, and nonmotor symptoms. RESULTS Of the 239 patients, 56 patients (23.4%) were classified as having PD combined with EDS. Binary logistic regression analysis showed that fatigue (Fatigue Severity Scale [FSS] score ≥4) (odds ratio [OR] [95% CI] = 4.897 [2.376-10.095], p < .001) and the respiratory-related microarousal index (OR [95% CI] = 2.063 [1.085-3.923], p = .027) were independent risk factors for EDS in PD patients. A priori-determined stratified analysis showed that after adjustment for confounding factors, the association of the respiratory-related microarousal index with EDS was significant (OR = 4.404, 95% CI 1.673-11.592, p trend = .036) in patients with respiratory arousal index scores in the highest quintile compared with those with scores in the lowest quintile. CONCLUSION Our data revealed a close association among the respiratory-related microarousal index, FSS scores, and EDS. It can be speculated that fragmented sleep and pathological abnormalities of the central nervous system resulting in changes in arousal are major influencing factors of EDS in PD.

Abstract
Sleepiness is a frequent and underrecognized symptom in neurological disorders, that impacts functional outcomes and quality of life. Multiple and potentially additive factors might contribute to sleepiness in neurological disorders, including sleep quality alterations, circadian rhythm disorders, drugs, and sleep disorders including sleep apnea or central disorders of hypersomnolence. Physician awareness of the possible symptoms of hypersomnolence, and associated causes is of crucial importance to allow proper identification and treatment of underlying causes. This review first provides a brief overview on clinical aspects of excessive daytime sleepiness, and diagnosis tools, then examines its frequency and mechanisms in various neurological disorders, including neurodegenerative disorders, multiple sclerosis, autoimmune encephalitis, epilepsy, and stroke.

Abstract
We aimed to explore excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) and correlates of clinical characteristics by using cross-sectional and longitudinal analyses from the Parkinson's Progression Markers Initiative database. Four hundred twenty-three patients with Parkinson's disease (PD; EDS: non-EDS = 357:66) and 195 healthy controls (HCs; EDS: nEDS = 171:24) were enrolled in our study at baseline. Multiple linear and linear mixed-effects models were used to research the relationships between EDS/daytime sleepiness severity and clinical characteristics. Relationships between the change rates of clinical characteristics and daytime sleepiness severity were further investigated through multiple linear regression models. Mediating effect analysis was used to determine whether autonomic dysfunction was the mediator between cognition assessments and daytime sleepiness severity. Patients with PD with EDS and greater daytime sleepiness severity presented faster cognitive decline, high possibility for rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder, autonomic dysfunction, depression, and anxiety from cross-sectional and longitudinal analyses. Furthermore, HC individuals with EDS showed a higher striatal binding ratio of the right putamen, right striatum, and mean striatum. Autonomic dysfunction may act as a mediator between PD and cognitive decline. In early PD, EDS and daytime sleepiness severity were related to several clinical variables, suggesting that EDS might play an essential role in regulating PD progression.

Abstract
Sleep disorders are among the most common nonmotor symptoms in Parkinson's disease and are associated with reduced cognition and health-related quality of life. Disturbed sleep can often present in the prodromal or early stages of this neurodegenerative disease, rendering it crucial to manage and treat these symptoms. Levodopa and dopaminergic agonists are frequently prescribed to treat motor symptoms in Parkinson's disease, and there is increasing interest in how these pharmacological agents affect sleep and their effect on concomitant sleep disturbances and disorders. In this review, we discuss the role of dopamine in regulating the sleep-wake state and the impact of neurodegeneration on sleep. We provide an overview of the effects of levodopa and dopaminergic agonists on sleep architecture, insomnia, excessive daytime sleepiness, sleep-disordered breathing, rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder, and restless legs syndrome in Parkinson's disease. Levodopa and dopaminergic drugs may have different effects, beneficial or adverse, depending on dosing, method of administration, and differential effects on the different dopamine receptors. Future research in this area should focus on elucidating the specific mechanisms by which these drugs affect sleep in order to better understand the pathophysiology of sleep disorders in Parkinson's disease and aid in developing suitable therapies and treatment regimens.

Abstract
Sleep disorders in women remain underrecognized and underdiagnosed mainly because of gender bias in researching and characterizing sleep disorders in women. Symptoms of common sleep disorders are frequently missed in the general female population and are expected to be further overlooked because of overlapping symptoms in women with neurologic disorders. Given the bidirectional relationship with sleep and neurologic disorders, it remains critical to be aware of the presentation and impact of sleep disorders in this patient population. This article reviews available data on sleep disorders in women with neurologic disorders and discusses their distinctive features.

Noninvasive neuroimaging provides evidence for deterioration of the glymphatic system in Parkinson's disease relative to essential tremor. Parkinsonism Relat Disord 2023; 107:105254.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Growing evidence has demonstrated dysfunction of the glymphatic system in α-synucleinopathy and related diseases. In this study, we aimed to use diffusion tensor image analysis along the perivascular space (DTI-ALPS) and MRI-visible enlarged perivascular spaces (EPVS) to evaluate glymphatic system function quantitatively and qualitatively and its relationship to clinical scores of disease severity in Parkinson's disease (PD) and essential tremor (ET). METHODS Overall, 124 patients with PD, 74 with ET, and 106 healthy controls (HC) were enrolled. Two trained neurologists performed quantitative calculations of ALPS on DTI and visual ratings of EPVS on T2-weighted images in the centrum semiovale (CSO), basal ganglia (BG), midbrain, and cerebellum. RESULTS The ALPS index was lower in patients with PD than in patients with ET (p < 0.001) and HC (p < 0.001). Similarly, patients with PD showed a more severe EPVS burden in the CSO, BG, and midbrain compared to ET and HC. Moreover, the ALPS index was negatively correlated with disease severity in the PD subgroups; however, it did not differ within the ET subgroup. No differences in ALPS or EPVS were observed between the ET and HC groups. CONCLUSION In conclusion, DTI-ALPS and EPVS both provide neuroimaging evidence of glymphatic system dysfunction in PD, which further supports that PD is an α-synucleinopathy disease, while ET is a cerebellar dysfunction-related disease.

[PMID: 36970510 PMCID: PMC10034164 DOI: 10.3389/fneur.2023.1097251] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/13/2022] [Accepted: 02/20/2023] [Indexed: 03/29/2023] Open
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
We aimed to determine the distribution of chronotypes in a cohort of PD patients and to evaluate the relationships between chronotype and PD characteristics, and self-reported metrics of sleep and sleepiness. Chronotype was characterized using the Horne-Ostberg Morningness-Eveningness Questionnaire (MEQ). PD participants were categorized as Evening Types (ET), Neither Types (NT), or Morning Types (MT). Sleepiness was assessed by the Epworth Sleepiness Scale. Sleep metrics included self-reported sleep times and latency. 186 participants with PD, age 65.5 ± 9.8 yrs, disease duration 6.17 ± 6.7 yrs completed the MEQ. Most participants were classified as MT (63.4%). Participants in the ET group were younger than those in the NT and MT groups (57.6 ± 6.3 vs 67.3 ± 10.2 vs 64.9 ± 9.5). The mean disease duration was not different among chronotypes. No significant relationship between chronotype and sleepiness was found. MT participants woke up and went to bed significantly earlier than NT participants. There was no significant difference between chronotypes and PD medications. Further studies should examine if PD severity and progression affect the chronotype, and whether certain chronotype differentially affects the quality of life, symptom control, and medication effectiveness in the PD population.

Abstract
Parkinson's disease is a neurodegenerative disorder predominately affecting midbrain dopaminergic neurons that results in a broad range of motor and non-motor symptoms. Sleep complaints are among the most common non-motor symptoms, even in the prodromal period. Sleep alterations in Parkinson's disease patients may be associated with dysregulation of circadian rhythms, intrinsic 24-h cycles that control essential physiological functions, or with side effects from levodopa medication and physical and mental health challenges. The impact of circadian dysregulation on sleep disturbances in Parkinson's disease is not fully understood; as such, we review the systems, cellular and molecular mechanisms that may underlie circadian perturbations in Parkinson's disease. We also discuss the potential benefits of chronobiology-based personalized medicine in the management of Parkinson's disease both in terms of behavioural and pharmacological interventions. We propose that a fuller understanding of circadian clock function may shed important new light on the aetiology and symptomatology of the disease and may allow for improvements in the quality of life for the millions of people with Parkinson's disease.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Sleep disorders including excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS), insomnia and anemia are both common. The aim of this study is to investigate associations between anemia and insomnia/EDS in the elderly. METHODS A total of 744 older outpatients were included in this cross-sectional study. Anemia was defined as a hemoglobin concentration below 12 g/dL in females and <13 g/dl in males. Patients were divided into two groups as anemic and non-anemic. The Epworth Sleepiness Scale score of ≥11 points indicates EDS. Insomnia Severity Index with scores of ≥8 indicates insomnia. RESULTS The mean age was 79.8±7.7 years. The prevalence of insomnia, EDS and anemia was 62.1%, 23.8%, and 47.2%, respectively. Insomnia (66.3% vs 58.5%) and EDS (29.6% vs 18.6%) were more common in patients with anemia compared to those without anemia (p<0.05). In univariate analysis, there were significant associations between anemia and insomnia [odds ratio (OR):1.4, 95% confidence interval (CI):1.0-1.9], and EDS (OR:1.8,95% CI:1.3-2.6). In multivariate analysis, the relationship between insomnia and nocturia, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and number of drugs used persisted, whereas being male, of an older age, coronary arterial disease, COPD, Parkinson's disease, dementia, and urinary incontinence were associated with EDS (p<0.05), but there was no significant relationships between anemia and insomnia/EDS (p>0.05). CONCLUSION The present data suggests that an elderly who has anemia is 1.4 times more likely to experience insomnia and 1.8 times more likely to experience EDS than those without anemia.

Abstract
Abstract
Study Objectives
Excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) is a common and devastating symptom in Parkinson disease (PD), but surprisingly most studies showed that EDS is independent from nocturnal sleep disturbance measured with polysomnography. Quantitative electroencephalography (EEG) may reveal additional insights by measuring the EEG hallmarks of non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep, namely slow waves and spindles. Here, we tested the hypothesis that EDS in PD is associated with nocturnal sleep disturbance revealed by quantitative NREM sleep EEG markers.
Methods
Patients with PD (n = 130) underwent polysomnography followed by spectral analysis to calculate spindle frequency activity, slow-wave activity (SWA), and overnight SWA decline, which reflects the dissipation of homeostatic sleep pressure. We used the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) to assess subjective daytime sleepiness and define EDS (ESS > 10). All examinations were part of an evaluation for deep brain stimulation.
Results
Patients with EDS (n = 46) showed reduced overnight decline of SWA (p = 0.036) and reduced spindle frequency activity (p = 0.032) compared with patients without EDS. Likewise, more severe daytime sleepiness was associated with reduced SWA decline (ß= −0.24 p = 0.008) and reduced spindle frequency activity (ß= −0.42, p < 0.001) across all patients. Reduced SWA decline, but not daytime sleepiness, was associated with poor sleep quality and continuity at polysomnography.
Conclusions
Our data suggest that daytime sleepiness in PD patients is associated with sleep disturbance revealed by quantitative EEG, namely reduced overnight SWA decline and reduced spindle frequency activity. These findings could indicate that poor sleep quality, with incomplete dissipation of homeostatic sleep pressure, may contribute to EDS in PD.

Abstract
Objective: To assess the impact of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic on sleep disorders among Parkinson's disease (PD) patients using validated questionnaires. Materials and Methods: This prospective study involved 50 PD patients and 50 age, gender, and body mass index-matched controls. All participants underwent assessment of cognition using Montreal Cognitive Assessment scale, sleep quality using Parkinson's disease sleep scale-2 (PDSS-2; for PD patients) and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI; for PD patients and healthy controls), excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) using Epworth sleepiness scale (ESS), insomnia symptoms and severity using insomnia severity index (ISI), restless legs syndrome (RLS) using International RLS Study Group criteria, rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (RBD) using RBD Single-Question Screen (RBD1Q), and depression using Patient Health Questionnaire-9 scale. Results: Eighty-eight percent of PD patients reported one or more sleep disorders, compared to 28% controls. While 72% of PD patients reported poor sleep quality (PDSS-2 ≥15, PSQI >5), 60% had insomnia, 58% reported RBD, 50% had EDS, and 36% reported RLS. Depressive symptoms were reported by 70% patients. PD patients with and without poor sleep quality were comparable with regards to demographic and clinical variables, except for depressive symptoms (P < 0.001). Depressive symptoms showed a significant association with EDS (P = 0.008), RBD (P < 0.001), and insomnia (P = 0.001). Conclusion: Prevalence of sleep disorders increased in PD patients during the COVID-19 pandemic. Prevalence of EDS, RBD, and RLS in PD patients was higher compared to that reported in studies during the pre-COVID-19 times. Presence of depressive symptoms was a significant correlate of presence of sleep disorders in PD patients.

Abstract
Objective There is a lack of longitudinal studies that directly compare the quality of life (QoL) and investigate the impact of clinical factors on QoL across different excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) statuses in Parkinson’s disease (PD); therefore, we aimed to compare QoL and reveal the potential heterogeneous predictors of QoL between patients with PD with and without EDS. Methods We collected clinical data among 306 patients with PD over 2 years. EDS was assessed by the Epworth Sleepiness Scale and QoL was measured with the 39-item Parkinson’s Disease Questionnaire. Results We found that at both baseline and follow-up, patients with PD with EDS had poorer QoL and suffered more non-motor symptoms including depression and clinical probable rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (cpRBD). The generalized linear mixed model analysis indicated that the major predictors of QoL in PD with EDS were the akinetic-rigid type, disease duration, and total levodopa equivalent dose, while in PD without EDS, the primary determinants of QoL were Hoehn and Yahr, Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), and cpRBD. Conclusion Patients with PD with EDS presented with poorer QoL. Besides, the baseline predictors of future QoL differed between patients with PD with and without EDS. These findings remind clinicians to target specific clinical factors when attempting to improve QoL among patients with PD.

Abstract
Patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD) complicated with rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (RBD) present with distinct clinical features. The purpose of this study was to determine the clinical features of sleep and autonomic symptoms in PD patients with probable RBD (pRBD). The study included 126 patients with PD. pRBD was defined as having a history of dream-enacting behavior with a total score of 5 or greater on the Japanese version of the RBD Screening Questionnaire (RBDSQ-J). The Parkinson’s Disease Sleep Scale-2 (PDSS-2) was used to evaluate sleep disturbances. Scales for Outcomes in Parkinson’s Disease-Autonomic dysfunction (SCOPA-AUT) were used to evaluate autonomic symptoms. Clinical assessments included disease severity, motor symptoms, olfaction, depression, cognitive function, levodopa equivalent dose (LED), and cardiac metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) scintigraphy. Correlations between RBDSQ-J total scores and clinical variables were analyzed. Compared to PD patients without pRBD, PD patients with pRBD showed severe hyposmia, severe sleep-related symptoms, severe dysautonomia, and more reduced cardiac MIBG scintigraphy. Within the PDSS-2, the “PD symptoms at night” domain was significantly more severe in PD patients with pRBD. Within the SCOPA-AUT, the “urinary” and “cardiovascular” domains were significantly higher in PD patients with pRBD. In correlation analyses, RBDSQ-J total scores were positively correlated with PDSS-2 total scores, “PD symptoms at night” and “disturbed sleep” domains, Epworth Sleepiness Scale scores, SCOPA-AUT total scores, “urinary,” “cardiovascular,” and “thermo” domain scores, and LED. RBDSQ-J total scores were negatively correlated with cardiac MIBG scintigraphy uptake. Binary logistic regression analysis showed that PDSS-2 subitem 7 (distressing hallucinations) and SCOPA-AUT subitem 11 (weak stream of urine) were significant determinants for pRBD. Our study showed that PD patients with pRBD had characteristic sleep and autonomic symptoms.

New approaches to treatments for sleep, pain and autonomic failure in Parkinson's disease - Pharmacological therapies. Neuropharmacology 2022; 208:108959. [PMID: 35051446 DOI: 10.1016/j.neuropharm.2022.108959] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/02/2021] [Revised: 01/08/2022] [Accepted: 01/13/2022] [Indexed: 01/07/2023]
Abstract
Non-motor symptoms (NMSs) are highly prevalent throughout the course of Parkinson's disease (PD). Pain, autonomic dysfunction and sleep disturbances remain at the forefront of the most common NMSs; their treatment is challenging and their effect on the quality of life of both patients and caregivers detrimental. Yet, the landscape of clinical trials in PD is still dominated by therapeutic strategies seeking to ameliorate motor symptoms; subsequently, effective strategies to successfully treat NMSs remain a huge unmet need. Wider awareness among industry and researchers is thus essential to give rise to development and delivery of high-quality, large-scale clinical trials in enriched populations of patients with PD-related pain, autonomic dysfunction and sleep. In this review, we discuss recent developments in the field of pharmacological treatment strategies designed or re-purposed to target three key NMSs: pain, autonomic dysfunction and sleep disturbances. We focus on emerging evidence from recent clinical trials and outline some exciting and intriguing findings that call for further investigations.

Abstract
Excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) is one of the most common sleep disorders in Parkinson's disease (PD). It has attracted much attention due to high morbidity, poor quality of life, increased risk for accidents, obscure mechanisms, comorbidity with PD and limited therapeutic approaches. In this review, we summarize the current literature on epidemiology of EDS in PD to address the discrepancy between subjective and objective measures and clarify the reason for the inconsistent prevalence in previous studies. Besides, we focus on the effects of commonly used antiparkinsonian drugs on EDS and related pharmacological mechanisms to provide evidence for rational clinical medication in sleepy PD patients. More importantly, degeneration of wake-promoting nuclei owing to primary neurodegenerative process of PD is the underlying pathogenesis of EDS. Accordingly, altered wake-promoting nerve nuclei and neurotransmitter systems in PD patients are highlighted to providing clues for identifying EDS-causing targets in the sleep and wake cycles. Future mechanistic studies toward this direction will hopefully advance the development of novel and specific interventions for EDS in PD patients.
