BackgroundA correlation between worse functional outcomes in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients with cerebrovascular disease (CVD) or the Akinetic-rigid phenotype has been argued in recent studies. We aimed to evaluate the association of cerebral hemodynamics impairments, assessed by Transcranial Color-coded Doppler sonography (TCCS), on PD patients with different phenotypes of the disease and with risk factors for CVD.MethodologyIdiopathic PD patients (n = 51) were divided into motor subtypes: Akinetic-rigid (AR) (n = 27) and Tremor-dominant (TD) (n = 24) and into two groups regarding vascular risk factors: when ≥2 were present (PDvasc) (n = 18) and ResultsThe phenotype groups were similar in age, disease duration and demographic parameters, but there were significantly higher H&Y scores than TD group. cVR was impaired in 66.7% of AR vs. 37.5% of TD. AR group exhibited lower BHI (0.53 ± 0.31 vs. 0.91 ± 0.62; p = 0.000), lower Vm after apnea (44.3 ± 9.0 cm/s vs. 53.4 ± 11.4 cm/s; p = 0.003), higher PI (0.91 ± 0.26 vs. 0.76 ± 0.12; p = 0.000) and RI (0.58 ± 0.11 vs. 0.52 ± 0.06; p = 0.021). PDvasc group showed higher PI (0.98 vs. 0.76; p = 0.001) and higher frequency of altered cVR (72.2% vs. 42.2%; p = 0.004). There was a significant predominance of higher values on Fazekas scale in the PDvasc group. We found no difference between the Fazekas scale when comparing motor subtypes groups but there was a trend toward higher scores in the AR phenotype.ConclusionsTCCS, a cost-effective method, displayed impaired cVR in Parkinsonian patients with risk factors for CVD with higher degree of MRI leukoaraiosis. PD patients with the AR disease phenotype also presented impaired cVR on TCCS and greater functional impairment, although with just a trend to higher scores on MRI Fazekas.
