Abstract
Objective Parkinson's disease (PD) is characterized by various non-motor symptoms (NMS), such as constipation, olfactory disturbance, sleep disturbance, mental disorders, and motor symptoms. This study aimed to investigate factors associated with NMS in patients with PD. Methods Symptoms of PD were evaluated using the Movement Disorder Society Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (MDS-UPDRS), Parts I-IV. NMS was assessed using the MDS-UPDRS Part I (self-assessment of NMS) and rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (RBD) questionnaires. Patients were categorized by age into <70 years and ≥ 70 years (older adults) groups, according to disease duration into early-stage and advanced-stage groups with a cut-off value of 5 years for motor symptoms, and by sex into male and female groups. Results A total of 431 patients with PD (202 males and 229 females) with a mean age of 67.7 years, a mean disease duration of 6.4 years, and a mean Part I total score of 9.9 participated in this study. The Part I total score was significantly positively correlated (p < 0.01) with disease duration and Part II, III, and IV scores. For Part I sub-item scores, the older group had significantly higher scores for cognitive impairment, hallucinations, sleep problems, urinary problems, and constipation than the <70 years group, whereas the advanced-stage group had significantly higher scores for hallucinations, sleep problems, daytime sleepiness, pain, urinary problems, and constipation (p < 0.05) than the early-stage group. Anxiety was higher in female patients than in male patients, whereas daytime sleepiness, urinary problems, and RBD were higher in male patients than in female patients (p < 0.05). Factors affecting Part I included disease duration, Part II total scores, Part IV total scores, and RBD. Conclusion According to the self-questionnaire assessment, NMS was highly severe in older adult patients, those with longer illness duration, subjective and objective motor function impairments, and RBD. Sex-based differences were also observed.

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.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It is necessary to conduct a meta-analysis of the clinical randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on ropinirole in the treatment of Parkinson disease (PD), to explore the effects and safety of ropinirole, and to provide a theoretical basis for clinically safe and rational drug use. METHODS RCTs on the effectiveness and safety of ropinirole in the treatment of PD were searched. We searched Dutch medical literature database, Pubmed, Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang Knowledge Service Platform up to December 15, 2020. The Cochrane risk bias assessment tool was used to evaluate the quality of the included literature, and the RevMan5.3 software was used for meta-analysis. RESULTS A total of 12 RCTs with 3341 patients were included. The changes of Parkinson Disease Rating Scale Part II score (mean difference = -2.23, 95% confidence interval [CI] -2.82 to -1.64) and Parkinson Disease Rating Scale Part III scores (mean difference = -4.93, 95%CI -5.25 to -4.61) in the ropinirole group was significantly lower than that in the control group. The incidence of dizziness (odd risk [OR] = 1.85, 95%CI 1.50-2.28), nausea (OR = 2.17, 95%CI 1.81-2.59), vomiting (OR = 2.73, 95%CI 1.47-5.09), and lethargy (OR = 2.19, 95%CI 1.39-3.44) in the ropinirole group was significantly higher than that in the control group (all P < .05), and there were no significant differences in the incidence of headache (OR = 1.14, 95%CI 0.79-1.65) and insomnia (OR = 1.06, 95%CI 0.72-1.55) were found between 2 groups (all P > .05). CONCLUSIONS Ropinirole can help improve the ability of daily living and exercise function of PD patients, but it will increase the incidence of related adverse reactions, which needs to be further confirmed by subsequent large-scale, high-quality RCTs.

Abstract
Depression is one of the strongest predictors of quality of life in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). Despite the high prevalence of depression, there is no clear guidance for its treatment in PD because the evidence for the efficacy of most antidepressants remains insufficient. Pramipexole, a dopamine agonist, is one of the few drugs that has proven to be clinically useful. However, the underlying mechanisms of antidepressive effects of pramipexole are still unknown. A 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP)-induced mouse model, dopamine D2 receptor (DRD2) and D3 receptor (DRD3) knockout mice were used in our study. Compared with other dopamine D2-like receptor agonists and madopar, pramipexole improved depression-like behavior and alleviate bradykinesia in an MPTP-induced mouse model of PD. Pramipexole significantly improved depression-like behavior in DRD2-/- mice but not in DRD3-/- mice. These results demonstrate that the antidepressive effect of pramipexole is mediated by DRD3 but not DRD2. Our findings highlight the need to develop novel dopamine agonists specifically targeting DRD3 for the treatment of depression in PD in the future.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite the established importance of identifying depression in Parkinson's disease, our understanding of the factors which place the Parkinson's disease patient at future risk of depression is limited. METHODS Our sample consisted of 874 patients from two longitudinal cohorts, PPMI and PDBP, with median follow-up durations of 7 and 3 years respectively. Risk factors for depressive symptoms at baseline were determined using logistic regression. A Cox regression model was then used to identify baseline factors that predisposed the non-depressed patient to develop depressive symptoms that were sustained for at least one year, while adjusting for antidepressant use and cognitive impairment. Common predictors between the two cohorts were identified with a random-effects meta-analysis. RESULTS We found in our analyses that the majority of baseline non-depressed patients would develop sustained depressive symptoms at least once during the course of the study. Probable REM sleep behavior disorder (pRBD), age, duration of diagnosis, impairment in daily activities, mild constipation, and antidepressant use were among the baseline risk factors for depression in either cohort. Our Cox regression model indicated that pRBD, impairment in daily activities, hyposmia, and mild constipation could serve as longitudinal predictors of sustained depressive symptoms. CONCLUSIONS We identified several potential risk factors to aid physicians in the early detection of depression in Parkinson's disease patients. Our findings also underline the importance of adjusting for multiple covariates when analyzing risk factors for depression.

Abstract
A relationship between sleep disorders and cognitive dysfunctions was reported in Parkinson's Disease (PD), however, some studies did not confirm the link. A meta-analytic study was performed to investigate the relationship between sleep disorders and cognitive dysfunctions, and to clarify the evolution of cognitive status in PD patients with sleep disorders.The systematic literature search was performed up to November 2020 using PubMed, Scopus, and PsycINFO databases. We included studies published in peer-reviewed journals in English providing results about neuropsychological comparison between patients with or without sleep disorders. Meta-analysis on cross-sectional data included 54 studies for REM Sleep Behavior Disorder (RBD), 22 for Excessive Daytime Sleepiness (EDS), 7 for Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA), 13 for Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS), and 5 for insomnia, the meta-analysis on longitudinal data included 7 studies.RBD was related to deficits of global cognitive functioning, memory, executive functions, attention/working memory, language, and visuospatial abilities. EDS was associated with deficits of global cognitive functioning and attention and working memory abilities, whereas RLS and OSA were related to global cognitive dysfunction. Moreover, we revealed that PD patients with RBD and those with EDS performed worse than PD patients without sleep disorders at follow-up rather than baseline evaluation. Our results suggest that sleep disorders are associated with cognitive deficits supporting indirectly that these, especially the REM Sleep Behavior Disorder, reflect abnormalities of frontal networks and posterior cortical areas. Sleep disorders in patients with PD seem to also increase the risk for long-term cognitive decline.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To provide a robust estimate of the prevalence of excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) and its clinical correlates in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). METHOD We searched the PubMed and Embase databases for studies investigating the prevalence and clinical correlates of EDS from inception to March 01, 2020. Quality assessment was performed using the Newcastle-Ottawa quality assessment scale. Random-effects models were set to pool the risk estimates. Sensitivity analyses were performed to evaluate the stability of the outcomes. RESULTS After screening 1367 titles and abstracts, 59 studies involving 12,439 participants were included in the systematic review and meta-analysis. The pooled prevalence of EDS in PD was 35.1%, which was higher in South America, North America, Europe, and Australia than that in Asia. Compared to patients without EDS, patients with EDS had higher effect size on disease duration (0.76 years; 95% CI: 0.16-1.37, I2 = 68.8%), Hoehn and Yahr (HY) stage (0.23 grade; 95% CI: 0.11-0.34, I2 = 69.1%), Unified PD Rating Scale (UPDRS)-III (3.02 points; 95% CI: 1.53-4.51, I2: 61.2%), levodopa equivalent daily dose (LEDD) (141.46 mg; 95% CI: 64.17-218.77, I2 = 86.1%), depression symptoms (Hedges' g = 0.35; 95% CI: 0.15-0.55, I2 = 72.0%) and male sex (OR = 1.50; 95% CI: 1.30-1.72, I2 = 0). CONCLUSION Our results showed that approximately one-third of patients with PD had EDS, which may be associated with the severity of the disease, depression, and male sex, or a combination of neurodegeneration and medication.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Dopamine agonists have been widely used to treat patients with Parkinson's disease, but concerns related to their well-known side effects might prevent their use even when indicated. In this review, the authors describe for the first time the concept of 'Dopamine Agonist Phobia', a pharmacophobia that the authors believe might affect clinicians, and they provide evidence of the benefits of dopamine agonists, focusing on non-motor symptoms. AREAS COVERED The authors performed an extensive literature research, including studies exploring the use of dopamine agonists for the treatment of non-motor symptoms. The authors indicate the highest level of evidence in each section. EXPERT OPINION 'Dopamine Agonist Phobia' may preclude valid therapeutic options in selected cases, specifically for the treatment of non-motor symptoms. Thus, the authors propose a personalized approach in Parkinson's disease treatment, and encourage a thoughtful use of dopamine agonists, rather than an overall nihilism.

Abstract
Prenatal stress (PNS) has its negative impact on both the infant hippocampal neurogenesis and pregnancy outcomes in the neonates that serves as a risk factor for postnatal depression in adult offsprings. Therefore, main objectives of the present study were to evaluate the effect of maternal chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS) on behavioural changes, levels of oxidative stress, changes in selective developmental signaling genes and neurogenesis in the adult brain of Wistar rats and its reversal through a selective non-ergoline D2 type dopamine receptor (D2R) agonist Ropinirole (ROPI). Effects of ROPI treatment on CUMS induced adult rats offspring were measured by assessment of behavioural tests (sucrose preference test and forced swim test), biomarkers of oxidative stress, protein expression of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH), mRNA expression of SHH, GSK-3β, β-catenin, Notch, brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), Dopamine receptor 2 (Drd2) and bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) cell proliferation assay. The oxidative stress, protein and mRNA expression were determined in the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex while the BrdU cell proliferation was observed in the hippocampus of rat brain. PNS induced changes resulted in depression validated by the depression-like behaviours, increased oxidative stress, decreased TH expression, altered expression of selective developmental genes, along with the reduced hippocampal neurogenesis and BDNF expression in the brain of adult offsprings. Chronic ROPI treatment reversed those effects and was equally effective like Imipramine (IMI) treatment. So, the present study suggested that ROPI can be used as an antidepressant drug for the treatment of depressive disorders.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the clinical features and neurochemical changes in Parkinson's disease with depression (PD-D). Methods: A total of 478 PD patients were divided into PD-D and PD patients without depression (PD-ND) groups according to the 24-item Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD) score. Demographic variables, motor and non-motor symptoms and activities of daily living were evaluated. The independent influencing factors of PD-D were investigated via binary logistic regression analysis. The levels of neurotransmitters in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) were measured and their correlations with HAMD score were analyzed. Results: The proportion of PD-D was 59.0%, of which 76.95, 20.92, and 2.13% had mild, moderate, and severe depression, respectively. Anxiety/somatization was the most prevalent sub-factor of HAMD in PD-D. The scores of UPDRS III, postural instability/gait difficulty (PIGD) type and the scores of 14-item Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA) and 14-item Chalder Fatigue Scale (FS) were independently associated with PD-D. The levels of dopamine (DA) and 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) were all significantly reduced in PD-D group compared with those in PD-ND group. HAMD scores were negatively correlated with the DA levels in CSF. Conclusions: PD patients have a high proportion of depression, mainly of mild and moderate levels. The profile of depression in PD population is subtly different from that of the general population. Motor symptoms, PIGD type, anxiety and fatigue are the significant influencing factors of PD-D. Compared to 5-HT, DA may play a more important role in PD-D.
