IntroductionMutations in the lysosomal glucocerebrosidase (GBA) gene increase the risk of Parkinson's Disease (PD). We determined the frequency and relative risk of major GBA mutations in a large series of Italian patients with primary parkinsonism.MethodsWe studied 2766 unrelated consecutive patients with clinical diagnosis of primary degenerative parkinsonism (including 2350 PD), and 1111 controls. The entire cohort was screened for mutations in GBA exons 9 and 10, covering approximately 70% of mutations, including the two most frequent defects, p.N370S and p.L444P.ResultsFour known mutations were identified in heterozygous state: 3 missense mutations (p.N370S, p.L444P, and p.D443N), and the splicing mutation IVS10+1G>T, which results in the in-frame exon-10 skipping. Molecular characterization of 2 additional rare variants, potentially interfering with splicing, suggested a neutral effect. GBA mutations were more frequent in PD (4.5%, RR = 7.2, CI = 3.3–15.3) and in Dementia with Lewy Bodies (DLB) (13.8%, RR = 21.9, CI = 6.8–70.7) than in controls (0.63%). but not in the other forms of parkinsonism such as Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP, 2%), and Corticobasal Degeneration (CBD, 0%). Considering only the PD group, GBA-carriers were younger at onset (52 ± 10 vs. 57 ± 10 years, P < 0.0001) and were more likely to have a positive family history of PD (34% vs. 20%, P < 0.001).ConclusionGBA dysfunction is relevant for synucleinopathies, such as PD and DLB, except for MSA, in which pathology involves oligodendrocytes, and the tauopathies PSP and CBD. The risk of developing DLB is three-fold higher than PD, suggesting a more aggressive phenotype. 相似文献

BackgroundRare TREM2 variants are significant risk factors for Alzheimer's disease (AD).MethodsWe used next generation sequencing of the whole gene (n = 700), exon 2 Sanger sequencing (n = 2634), p.R47H genotyping (n = 3518), and genome wide association study imputation (n = 13,048) to determine whether TREM2 variants are risk factors or phenotypic modifiers in patients with AD (n = 1002), frontotemporal dementia (n = 358), sporadic (n = 2500), and variant (n = 115) Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD).ResultsWe confirm only p.R47H as a risk factor for AD (odds ratio or OR = 2.19; 95% confidence interval or CI = 1.04-4.51; P = .03). p.R47H does not significantly alter risk for frontotemporal dementia (OR = 0.81), variant or sporadic CJD (OR = 1.06 95%CI = 0.66-1.69) in our cohorts. Individuals with p.R47H associated AD (n = 12) had significantly earlier symptom onset than individuals with no TREM2 variants (n = 551) (55.2 years vs. 61.7 years, P = .02). We note that heterozygous p.R47H AD is memory led and otherwise indistinguishable from “typical” sporadic AD.ConclusionWe find p.R47H is a risk factor for AD, but not frontotemporal dementia or prion disease. 相似文献

IntroductionA recent study reported that rare variants in NUS1 were associated with Parkinson's disease (PD). We aimed to assess the relative contribution of rare and common coding/non-coding variants of NUS1 to late-onset PD patients (LOPD).MethodsWhole genome sequencing data were analyzed for target NUS1 regions, derived from a cohort of 1962 cases and 1279 controls. The genetic association analyses were performed using logistic regression analysis and Sequence Kernel association test. Expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) analysis was conducted to further explore the association of variants with NUS1 expression based on the data from GTEx database.ResultsWe identified 18 rare coding variants. p.Y131C was first identified in LOPD. However, no significant burden of rare NUS1 coding variants in LOPD was found. The rare variant sets of two regulatory elements (GH06J117605 and GH06J117674) were significantly enriched in LOPD even after Bonferroni correction (adjusted P = 0.013; adjusted P = 0.010). Considering the joint effect of rare and common variants, all variant sets within GH06J117605 and GH06J117674 showed association with LOPD but were no longer significant after Bonferroni correction. None of the common variants within coding/non-coding regions were significant after Bonferroni correction. The eQTL results suggested these variants in GH06J117605 and GH06J117674 could potentially have eQTL effects on the brain tissues.ConclusionsThese findings provide novel insight into the role of NUS1 regulatory regions in the development of LOPD and indicate that the variants in regulatory elements of NUS1 may be associated with LOPD by influencing the gene expression level. 相似文献

IntroductionImpulse control disorders (ICD) are reported to occur at variable frequencies in different ethnic groups. Genetic vulnerability is suspected to underlie the individual risk for ICD. We investigated whether the allelic variants of dopamine (DRD3), glutamate (GRIN2B) and serotonin (HTR2A) receptors are linked to ICD in Indian Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients.MethodsWe conducted a prospective, case-control study which included PD patients (70 with ICD, 100 without ICD categorized after direct psychiatric interview of patient and caregiver) and 285 healthy controls. Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) variants of DRD3 p.S9G (rs6280), GRIN2B c.2664C>T (rs1806201) and HTR2A c.102T>C (rs6313) were genotyped.ResultsMultivariate regression analysis revealed that DRD3 p.Ser9Gly (rs6280) heterozygous variant CT (OR = 2.22, 95% CI: 1.03–4.86, p = 0.041), higher daily Levodopa equivalent doses (LED) of drugs (for 100 mg LED, OR = 1.14, 95% CI: 1.01–1.29, p = 0.041), current dopamine agonist but not Levodopa use (OR = 2.16, 95% CI: 1.03–4.55, p = 0.042) and age of onset of motor symptoms under 50 years (OR 2.09, 95% CI: 1.05–4.18, p = 0.035) were independently associated with ICD.ConclusionDRD3 p.Ser9Gly (rs6280) CT genotype is associated with ICD in Indian PD patients and this association is novel. Enhanced D3 receptor affinity due to gain-of-function conferred by the glycine residues could impair reward-risk assessment in the mesolimbic system and contribute to development of impulsive behaviour, in carriers of this genotype. 相似文献

BackgroundHeterozygous glucocerebrosidase (GBA) mutations are the leading genetic risk factor for Parkinson disease, yet imaging correlates, particularly transcranial sonography, have not been extensively described.MethodsTo determine whether GBA mutation heterozygotes with Parkinson disease demonstrate hyperechogenicity of the substantia nigra, transcranial sonography was performed in Ashkenazi Jewish Parkinson disease subjects, tested for the eight most common Gaucher disease mutations and the LRRK2 G2019S mutation, and in controls. [18F]-fluorodeoxyglucose or [18F]-fluorodopa positron emission tomography is also reported from a subset of Parkinson disease subjects with heterozygous GBA mutations.ResultsParkinson disease subjects with heterozygous GBA mutations (n = 23) had a greater median maximal area of substantia nigral echogenicity compared to controls (n = 34, aSNmax = 0.30 vs. 0.18, p = 0.007). There was no difference in median maximal area of nigral echogenicity between Parkinson disease groups defined by GBA and LRRK2 genotype: GBA heterozygotes; GBA homozygotes/compound heterozygotes (n = 4, aSNmax = 0.27); subjects without LRRK2 or GBA mutations (n = 32, aSNmax = 0.27); LRRK2 heterozygotes/homozygotes without GBA mutations (n = 27, aSNmax = 0.28); and GBA heterozygotes/LRRK2 heterozygotes (n = 4, aSNmax = 0.32, overall p = 0.63). In secondary analyses among Parkinson disease subjects with GBA mutations, maximal area of nigral echogenicity did not differ based on GBA mutation severity or mutation number. [18F]-fluorodeoxyglucose (n = 3) and [18F]-fluorodopa (n = 2) positron emission tomography in Parkinson disease subjects with heterozygous GBA mutations was consistent with findings in idiopathic Parkinson disease.ConclusionsBoth transcranial sonography and positron emission tomography are abnormal in GBA mutation associated Parkinson disease, similar to other Parkinson disease subjects. 相似文献

ObjectiveAccumulating evidence implicates inflammatory cytokines in the development of psychiatric disorders, including schizophrenia (SZ). IL-18 is one of cytokines that plays a crucial role in immune response and neurodevelopment. We aimed to investigate potential genetic alterations of the cytokine system underpinning SZ.MethodsWe tested the association of genetic variants within the cytokine–cytokine receptor interaction (CCRI) pathway with SZ, using GWAS-derived data involving 768 adult SZ patients and 1348 controls, and replicated the association of IL18R1 rs1035130 with SZ in an independent sample of 1957 adult patients and 1509 controls. We compared expression levels of IL18, IL18R1 and IL18RAP in peripheral blood of a cohort of adolescent participants (<18 years), including 14 early-onset SZ patients and 13 healthy controls. Furthermore, we carried out a cis-eQTL (expression Quantitative Trait Loci) and a cis-mQTL (Methylation Quantitative Trait Loci) analysis for IL18R1 rs1035130.ResultsIn the discovery stage, we detected association signals within two IL18 pathway genes, IL18R1 and IL18RAP, with the most significant marker being IL18R1 rs1035130 (P = 1.84E-7, OR = 0.70). In the validation stage, we found rs1035130 was associated with SZ (P = 0.028, OR = 0.89). Expressions of IL18 and IL18R1 were altered in blood of SZ patients compared with 13 controls. Furthermore, cis-QTL analyses indicated that rs1035130 was associated with an eQTL and 5 mQTLs.ConclusionOur findings suggest the alteration of IL18 pathway may contribute to the psychopathology of SZ. 相似文献

IntroductionOur understanding of risk factors for COVID‑19, including pre-existing medical conditions and genetic variations, is limited. To what extent the pre-existing clinical condition and genetic background have implications for COVID-19 still needs to be explored.MethodsOur study included 389,620 participants of European descent from the UK Biobank, of whom 3,884 received the COVID-19 test and 1,091 were tested positive for COVID-19. We examined the association of COVID-19 status with an extensive list of 974 medical conditions and 30 blood biomarkers. Additionally, we tested the association of genetic variants in two key genes related to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection, angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) and transmembrane protease serine 2 (TMPRSS2), with COVID-19 or any other phenotypes.ResultsThe most significant risk factors for COVID-19 include Alzheimer’s disease (OR = 2.29, 95% CI: 1.25–4.16), dementia (OR = 2.16, 95% CI: 1.36–3.42), and the overall category of delirium, dementia, amnestic and other cognitive disorders (OR = 1.90, 95% CI: 1.24–2.90). Evidence suggesting associations of genetic variants in SARS-CoV-2 infection-related genes with COVID-19 (rs7282236, OR = 1.33, 95% CI: 1.14–1.54, p = 2.31 × 10−4) and other phenotypes, such as an immune deficiency (p = 5.65 × 10−5) and prostate cancer (p = 1.1 × 10−5), was obtained.ConclusionsOur unbiased and extensive search identified pre-existing Alzheimer’s disease and dementia as top risk factors for hospital admission due to COVID-19, highlighting the importance of providing special protective care for patients with cognitive disorders during this pandemic. We also obtained evidence suggesting a direct association of genetic variants with COVID-19. 相似文献

In a prior discovery study, increased levels of serum Growth Differentiation Factor 15 (GDF15), Hepsin (HPN), and Matrix Metalloproteinase-7 (MMP7) were observed in bipolar depressed patients vs controls. This exploratory post-hoc analysis applied a proteomic-informed genomic research strategy to study the potential functional role of these proteins in bipolar disorder (BP). Utilizing the Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) database to identify cis-acting blood expression quantitative trait loci (cis-eQTLs), five eQTL variants from the HPN gene were analyzed for association with BP cases using genotype data of cases from the discovery study (n = 58) versus healthy controls (n = 777). After adjusting for relevant covariates, we analyzed the relationship between these 5 cis-eQTLs and HPN serum level in the BP cases. All 5 cis-eQTL minor alleles were significantly more frequent in BP cases vs controls [(rs62122114, OR = 1.6, p = 0.02), (rs67003112, OR = 1.6, p = 0.02), (rs4997929, OR = 1.7, p = 0.01), (rs12610663, OR = 1.7, p = 0.01), (rs62122148, OR = 1.7, P = 0.01)]. The minor allele (A) in rs62122114 was significantly associated with increased serum HPN level in BP cases (Beta = 0.12, P = 0.049). However, this same minor allele was associated with reduced gene expression in GTEx controls. These exploratory analyses suggest that genetic variation in/near the gene encoding for hepsin protein may influence risk of bipolar disorder. This genetic variation, at least for the rs62122114-A allele, may have functional impact (i.e. differential expression) as evidenced by serum HPN protein expression. Although limited by small sample size, this study highlights the merits of proteomic informed functional genomic studies as a tool to investigate with greater precision the genetic risk of bipolar disorder and secondary relationships to protein expression recognizing, and encouraging in subsequent studies, high likelihood of epigenetic modification of genetic disease risk. 相似文献

IntroductionVariation contributing to the risk of Parkinson's disease (PD) has been identified in several genes and at several loci including GBA, SMPD1, LRRK2, POLG1, CHCHD10 and MAPT, but the frequencies of risk variants seem to vary according to ethnic background. Our aim was to analyze how variation in these genes contributes to PD in the Finnish population.MethodsThe subjects consisted of 527 Finnish patients with early-onset PD, 325 patients with late-onset PD and 403 population controls. We screened for known genetic risk variants in GBA, SMPD1, LRRK2, POLG1, CHCHD10 and MAPT. In addition, DNA from 225 patients with early-onset Parkinson's disease was subjected to whole exome sequencing (WES).ResultsWe detected a significant difference in the length variation of the CAG repeat in POLG1 between patients with early-onset PD compared to controls. The p.N370S and p.L444P variants in GBA contributed to a relative risk of 3.8 in early-onset PD and 2.5 in late-onset PD. WES revealed five variants in LRRK2 and SMPD1 that were found in the patients but not in the Finnish ExAC sequences. These are possible risk variants that require further confirmation. The p.G2019S variant in LRRK2, common in North African Arabs and Ashkenazi Jews, was not detected in any of the 849 PD patients.ConclusionsThe POLG1 CAG repeat length variation and the GBA p.L444P variant are associated with PD in the Finnish population. 相似文献

BackgroundLess is known about the genetic basis of Alzheimer's disease (AD) in African Americans (AAs) than in non-Hispanic whites.MethodsWhole exome sequencing (WES) was performed on seven AA AD cases. Disease association with potentially AD-related variants from WES was assessed in an AA discovery cohort of 422 cases and 394 controls. Replication was sought in an AA sample of 1037 cases and 1869 controls from the Alzheimer Disease Genetics Consortium (ADGC).ResultsForty-four single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) from WES passed filtering criteria and were successfully genotyped. Nominally significant (P < .05) association to AD was observed with two African-descent specific AKAP9 SNPs in tight linkage disequilibrium: rs144662445 (P = .014) and rs149979685 (P = .037). These associations were replicated in the ADGC sample (rs144662445: P = .0022, odds ratio [OR] = 2.75; rs149979685: P = .0022, OR = 3.61).ConclusionsBecause AKAP9 was not previously linked to AD risk, this study indicates a potential new disease mechanism. 相似文献

IntroductionFatigue is common in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). The leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) G2385R variant predisposes individuals to develop PD in China. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether the LRRK2 G2385R variant is associated with fatigue in patients with PD.MethodsFatigue was evaluated by the Parkinson Fatigue Scale (PFS) in 329 PD patients and 180 controls, a cut-off score of ≥3.3 was used to define the presence of fatigue. All the enrolled PD patients were assessed by a comprehensive battery of motor and non-motor questionnaires. PD patients were genotyped for the G2385R variant. Associations of fatigue with the clinical assessments and with the G2385R variant in PD patients were analyzed by logistic regression.ResultsFatigue frequency was 55.62%. A logistic regression model found that the female sex (OR = 10.477; 95%CI: 2.806–39.120; p < 0.001), motor function (OR = 1.060; 95%CI: 1.012–1.110; p = 0.013), sleep disturbance (OR = 0.943; 95%CI: 0.910–0.976; p = 0.001) and depression severity (OR = 0.843; 95%CI: 0.736–0.965; p = 0.013) collectively predict the presence of fatigue in PD patients. After adjustment for demographics and associated clinical factors, the G2385R variant was associated with an increased risk for the presence of fatigue (OR = 10.699; 95% CI = 2.387–47.958; p = 0.002) in the PD population in this study.ConclusionWe confirm that fatigue in PD patients is common, and we have strengthened the associations between fatigue and female sex, motor severity and non-motor symptoms, particularly depression and sleep disturbances. Overall, we found that carriers of the G2385R variant were more prone to fatigue than non-carriers in PD patients. 相似文献

ObjectiveTo investigate the association of CYP metabolic pathway-related genetic polymorphisms with the susceptibility to ischemic stroke and stability of carotid plaque in southeast China.MethodsWe consecutively enrolled 294 acute ischemic stroke patients with carotid plaque and 282 controls from Wenling First People's Hospital. The patients were divided into the carotid vulnerable plaque group and stable plaque group according to the results of carotid B-mode ultrasonography. Polymorphisms of CYP3A5 (G6986A, rs776746), CYP2C9*2 (C430T, rs1799853), CYP2C9*3 (A1075C, rs1057910), and EPHX2 (G860A, rs751141) were determined using polymerase chain reaction and mass spectrometry analysis.ResultsEPHX2 GG may reduce the susceptibility to ischemic stroke (OR = 0.520, 95% CI: 0.288 ∼ 0.940, P = 0.030) and AA+AG may increase the risk for ischemic stroke (OR = 1.748, 95% CI: 1.001 ∼ 3.052, P = 0.050). The distribution of CYP3A5 genotypes showed significant differences between the vulnerable plaque and stable plaque groups (P = 0.026). Multivariate logistic regression analysis found that CYP3A5 GG could reduce the risk of vulnerable plaques (OR = 0.405, 95% CI: 0.178 ∼ 0.920, P = 0.031).ConclusionEPHX2 G860A polymorphism may reduce the stroke susceptibility, while other SNPs of CYP genes are not associated with ischemic stroke in southeast China. Furthermore CYP3A5 polymorphism was related with carotid plaque instability. 相似文献

BackgroundGenetic heterogeneity in Parkinson's disease (PD) has been unambiguously reported across different populations. Assuming a higher genetic load, we tested variant burden in PD genes to an early onset PD cohort from India.MethodsWhole exome sequencing was performed in 250 PD patients recruited following MDS-UPDRS criteria. The number of rare variants in the 20 known PD genes per exome were used to calculate average rare variant burden with the 616 non-PD exomes available in-house as a comparison group. SKAT-O test was used for gene level analysis.Results80 patients harboured rare variants in 20 PD genes, of which six had known pathogenic variants accounting for 2.4% of the cohort. Of 80 patients, 12 had homozygous and nine had likely compound heterozygous variants in recessive PD genes and 59 had heterozygous variants in only dominant PD genes. Of the 16 novel variants of as yet unknown significance identified, four homozygous across ATP13A2, PRKN, SYNJ1 and PARK7; and 12 heterozygous among LRRK2, VPS35, EIF4G1 and CHCHD2 were observed. SKAT-O test suggested a higher burden in GBA (punadjusted = 0.002). Aggregate rare variant analysis including 75 more individuals with only heterozygous variants in recessive PD genes (excluding GBA), with an average of 0.85 protein-altering rare variants per PD patient exome versus 0.51 in the non-PD group, revealed a significant enrichment (p < 0.0001).ConclusionThis first study in an early onset PD cohort among Indians identified 16 novel variants in known genes and also provides evidence for a high genetic burden in this ethnically distinct population. 相似文献

BackgroundRebleeding after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) confers a poor prognosis; however, risk factors and differential outcomes associated with early rebleeding in the first 24 h after symptom presentation are incompletely understood.MethodsA retrospective cohort study of all aSAH presenting to our institution between 2001 and 2016 was performed. Early rebleeding events were defined as clinical neurologic decline with radiographically confirmed acute intracranial hemorrhage within 24 h after symptom presentation. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to assess clinical associations, with a specific focus on baseline Glasgow Coma Score (GCS), World Federation of Neurosurgical Societies (WFNS), and modified Fisher scores.ResultsOf 471 aSAH cases, 33 (7%) experienced early rebleeding. Multivariate regression identified extraventricular drain (EVD) placement (OR = 2.16, P = 0.04) and WFNS 3–5 (OR = 2.69, P = 0.02) as significant predictors of early rebleeding. Good functional outcomes were observed in 8 patients with early rebleeding (24%), all of whom underwent aneurysm treatment. Higher SAH grade prior to rebleeding (WFNS 3–5) was significantly associated with increased odds of an unfavorable functional outcome (OR = 8.09, P < 0.01). Anticoagulation, aneurysm size and location were not significantly associated with either early rebleeding incidence or functional outcome.ConclusionsEarly rebleeding in aSAH is associated with unfavorable functional outcomes. EVD placement and higher SAH grade on presentation appear to be significantly and independently associated with increased risk of rebleeding within first 24 h, as well as unfavorable long-term functional outcome; however, the clinical benefit of hyper-acute aneurysm treatment requires further investigation. 相似文献

BackgroundThe relationship between insomnia and lung cancer is scanty. The Mendelian randomization approach provides the rationale for evaluating the potential causality between genetically-predicted insomnia and lung cancer risk.MethodsWe extracted 148 insomnia-related single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) as instrumental variables (IVs) from published genome-wide association studies (GWASs). Summary data of individual-level genetic information of participants were obtained from the International Lung Cancer Consortium (ILCCO) (29,266 cases and 56,450 controls). MR analyses were performed using the inverse-variance-weighted approach, MR pleiotropy residual sum and outlier (MR-PRESSO) test, weighted median estimator, and MR-Egger regression. Sensitivity analyses were further performed using Egger intercept analysis, leave-one-out analysis, MR-PRESSO global test, and Cochran's Q test to verify the robustness of our findings.ResultsThe results of the MR analysis indicated an increased risk of lung cancer in insomnia patients (OR = 1.1671; 95% CI 1.0754–1.2666, p = 0.0002). The subgroup analyses showed increased risks of lung adenocarcinoma (OR = 1.1878; 95% CI 1.0594–1.3317, p = 0.0032) and squamous cell lung cancer (OR = 1.1595; 95% CI 1.0248–1.3119, p = 0.0188).ConclusionOur study indicated that insomnia is a causal risk factor in the development of lung cancer. Due to the lack of evidence on both the epidemiology and the mechanism level, more studies are needed to better elucidate the results of the study. 相似文献

BackgroundRecently, the pivotal role of component of inhibitor of nuclear factor kappa B kinase complex (CHUK) in lipid levels and blood pressure has been reported, and hypertension and hyperlipidemia are common risk factors of ischemic stroke (IS). However, the association between CHUK and IS has not yet been explored. This study aims at evaluating the relationship of CHUK polymorphisms (rs3808916, rs2230804 and rs3808917) and IS risk as well as IS-related risk factors. Methods: CHUK mRNA expression was detected between 53 IS patients and 53 healthy controls using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). A total of 816 IS patients and 816 age- and sex-matched healthy controls were genotyped using the Sequenom MassARRAY iPLEX platform. Results: CHUK mRNA was highly expressed in IS patients compared with healthy subjects (P<0.001). No significant associations were observed between rs3808916, rs2230804, rs3808917 and IS susceptibility (P>0.05). Moreover, haplotype analysis showed that no haplotype of CHUK polymorphisms was associated with IS (P > 0.05). However, rs2230804 was related to diastolic blood pressure (DBP) of IS patients (P = 0.035), while rs3808917 was associated with triglyceride (TG) levels (P = 0.046). Conclusions: The CHUK expression is involved in the development of IS. CHUK variants rs2230804, and rs3808917 may affect blood pressure and lipid levels of IS patients. However, CHUK rs3808916, rs2230804 and rs3808917 polymorphisms are not associated with IS risk. 相似文献

IntroductionPrediction of depression in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) remains challenging. We investigated whether the common susceptible genetic variants for PD are associated with the risk and improves prediction of development of depression in PD (dPD).Methods1134 individuals with a primary diagnosis of PD were recruited. Demographic information, Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS), and 17-item Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (HAMD) were obtained. Nine variants located in six susceptible genes for PD were determined in all subjects. Logistic regression analyses were used to identify the study genetic variants that individually and collectively best predicted the presence of depressive disorder (HAMD ≥14).ResultsDepression occurred in 19.8% of patients with PD. The GBA L444P variant was associated with an increased risk of depression (odds ratio [OR] = 2.69, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.31–5.53, P = 0.007) and SNCA-Rep1 (CA)12/12 showed a decreased risk for the presence of depression (OR = 0.54, 95% CI = 0.29–0.99, P = 0.049) in the PD population after adjusted for demographic and clinical factors. Stepwise logistic regression model found that female sex, UPDRS part II score, motor fluctuation, GBA L1444P and SNCA Rep-1 variants collectively best predict depression in PD.ConclusionsBesides non PD-specific and PD-specific clinical correlates, we showed that GBA L444P and SNCA Rep-1 were also associated with dPD. Our findings highlight the crucial role of genetic variants for the prediction of dPD in clinical practice and may shed light on the future development of better therapeutic targets for dPD. 相似文献

BackgroundRestless Legs Syndrome (RLS) is associated with impaired central dopaminergic neurotransmission. Though a link between RLS and parkinsonism has been proposed, the prevalence of RLS in parkinsonian disorders is poorly documented.ObjectiveTo determine the prevalence of RLS in patients with Parkinson's Disease (PD), Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP), Multiple System Atrophy (MSA) and Dementia with Lewy Bodies (DLB).MethodsWe evaluated 187 consecutive patients with parkinsonian disorders (PD = 134, PSP = 27, MSA = 21, DLB = 5) and 172 healthy controls. RLS was diagnosed using the International RLS Study Group (IRLSSG) criteria and the severity of RLS was assessed in patients with definite RLS. Quality of sleep was evaluated with established scales.ResultsThe prevalence of RLS was higher in patients compared to controls (9.6% vs. 2.9%; p = 0.009) and was highest in PD (11.9%). RLS was present in only one patient each with MSA and PSP and none with DLB. The mean IRLSSG severity score of patients was 16.2 ± 6.5. The global Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index score and Epworth Sleepiness Scale score were significantly higher in patients compared to controls (p < 0.001). PD patients with RLS had lower Parkinson's Disease Sleep Scale (PDSS) score compared to patients without RLS (p = 0.023). There was no significant difference in gender, age, duration and severity of PD between the two groups.ConclusionsOur study found a higher prevalence of RLS in PD compared to healthy controls or other parkinsonian disorders. Apart from PDSS score, there was no significant difference in the clinical characteristics of PD patients with and without RLS. 相似文献

IntroductionThe efficacy of cilostazol administration to treat subarachnoid hemorrhage remains controversial. We conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis to explore the influence of cilostazol administration on treatment efficacy for subarachnoid hemorrhage.MethodsWe have searched PubMed, EMbase, Web of science, EBSCO, and Cochrane library databases through July 2020 for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) assessing the effect of cilostazol administration in patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage. This meta-analysis is performed using the random-effect model.ResultsFour RCTs involving 405 patients were included in the meta-analysis. Overall, compared with control group for subarachnoid hemorrhage, cilostazol intervention can significantly reduce symptomatic vasospasm (OR = 0.35; 95% CI = 0.21 to 0.60; P = 0.0001) and cerebral infarction (OR = 0.40; 95% CI = 0.22 to 0.73; P = 0.003), as well as improve no or mild angiographic vasospasm (OR = 2.01; 95% CI = 1.19 to 3.42; P = 0.01) and mRS score ≤ 2 (OR = 2.70; 95% CI = 1.09 to 6.71; P = 0.03), but revealed no obvious influence on severe angiographic vasospasm (OR = 0.53; 95% CI = 0.27 to 1.02; P = 0.06). There were no increase in adverse events (OR = 1.17; 95% CI = 0.54 to 2.52; P = 0.69), hemorrhagic events (OR = 0.62; 95% CI = 0.06 to 6.27; P = 0.69) and cardiac events (OR = 2.14; 95% CI = 0.44 to 10.27; P = 0.34) after the cilostazol intervention than control intervention.ConclusionsCilostazol treatment may be effective to treat subarachnoid hemorrhage in the terms of symptomatic vasospasm, cerebral infarction, no or mild angiographic vasospasm and mRS score ≤ 2. 相似文献
