Abstract Details

Longitudinal Clinical and Neuroanatomical Changes of PD-MCI Reverters
Movement Disorders
P12 - Poster Session 12 (12:00 PM-1:00 PM)
3-005

To investigate baseline and longitudinal clinical and neuroanatomical features of patients with Parkinson’s disease who experienced mild cognitive impairment, but reverted to normal cognition overtime (PD-MCIr) compared to PD with normal cognition (PD-CN), stable MCI (PD-MCIs), and patients who converted to MCI (PD-MCIc) or dementia (PD-Dc).

Longitudinal studies identified a group of PD patients with MCI that reverted to normal cognition overtime.

We recruited 154 patients with known cognitive-outcome after 4 years: 12 PD-MCIr, 55 PD-CN, 37 PD-MCIc, 26 PD-MCIs, and 24 PD-Dc. Patients underwent four visits, including neuropsychological/clinical assessments and MRI scans. Clinical/cognitive features, and regional cortical thickness (CT) progression overtime were investigated within and between groups.

At baseline, compared to PD-MCIc, PD-MCIs and PD-Dc, PD-MCIr patients had younger age, lower treatment dose, shorter disease duration, less motor and non-motor disturbances, and greater CT in the parieto-temporal cortices and subcortical regions. On the other hand, compared to PD-CN, PD-MCIr patients had lower education, performed worse in cognition, and experienced more gastrointestinal symptoms. However, PD-MCIr and PD-CN groups showed similar CT features. Overtime, PD-MCIr patients showed a global worsening of motor and non-motor symptoms, and decreased CT in fronto-temporal regions, in a way similar to that of the PD-CN group, except for lower cognitive performances. At the last visit, compared to PD-MCIc, PD-MCIs and PD-Dc cases, PD-MCIr patients still showed a better motor and non-motor condition, and ticker cortical structures. 
PD-MCIr is associated to a mild phenotype and a relatively preserved brain structure relative to patients with a progressive cognitive decline. The PD-MCIr group remains similar to PD-CN cases overtime, except for a cognitive vulnerability that in this group seems to be independent of the progression of motor and (other) non-motor disturbances.
