BackgroundDiabetes is associated with incidence and prevalence of Parkinson's disease (PD). Furthermore, glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels have been linked with motor function and progression.ObjectivesWe evaluated the relationship between prevalent diabetes and HbA1c levels with serum neurofilament light chain (NfL) levels as marker of neuroaxonal damage.MethodsNfL concentrations were analyzed with Simoa in serum of 195 PD patients with available HbA1c values. Motor (MDS-UPDRS III, Hoehn & Yahr [H&Y]) and cognitive (Montreal Cognitive Assessment [MoCA]) function was assessed and vascular comorbidities were documented from medical records.ResultsPD patients with prevalent diabetes had higher serum NfL levels and lower MoCA scores independent of age, body mass index (BMI), and vascular risk factors. Furthermore, diabetes was associated with higher H&Y stages in unadjusted and age/BMI-adjusted models. Higher HbA1c levels were associated with increased NfL in unadjusted and age/BMI-adjusted models.ConclusionsIn PD patients, diabetes and high HbA1c are associated with increased neuroaxonal damage and cognitive impairment. © 2022 The Authors.
