BACKGROUND: Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder causing motor and non-motor symptoms that can affect independence, social adjustment and the quality of life (QoL) of both patients and caregivers. Studies designed to find diagnostic and/or progression biomarkers of PD are needed. We describe here the study protocol of COPPADIS-2015 (COhort of Patients with PArkinson's DIsease in Spain, 2015), an integral PD project based on four aspects/concepts: 1) PD as ...

Impact of non-motor symptoms on health-related and perceived quality of life in Parkinson's disease
[ PUBLICATION ]
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the impact of non-motor symptoms on health-related and perceived quality of life in Parkinson's disease (PD).
METHODS: One hundred and fifty PD patients (57.3% males; 70.9±8.6years old) were included in this cross-sectional, monocenter, evaluation study. Multiple linear regression methods were used to evaluate the direct impact of non-motor symptoms (as assessed by the Non-Motor Symptoms Scale [NMSS]) on 1) the 39-item PD Quality of Life Questionnaire Summary ...

The effects of treadmill or overground walking training program on gait in Parkinson's disease
[ PUBLICATION ]
BACKGROUND: Gait impairment in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients is characterized by the inability to generate appropriate stride length. Treadmill training has been proposed as a therapeutic tool for PD patients. However, it remains unknown whether treadmill training effects are different from overground walking training. Thus, our goal was to explore the effects of two training programs, walking on a treadmill and walking overground, in PD patients.
METHODS: 22 PD patients were ...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: To analyze the main determinants of burden and stress in caregivers of Spanish Parkinson's disease (PD) patients.
METHODS: One-hundred and twenty-one non-demented patients with PD (57.9% males; 70.9 ± 8.2 years old) were included in this cross-sectional, monocenter, evaluation study. Caregivers (n = 121; 71.9% females; 60.2 ± 15 years old) were assessed using the Zarit Caregiver Burden Inventory (ZCBI) and Caregiver Strain Index (CSI). Multiple linear regression ...

BACKGROUND: Continuous duodenal levodopa infusion (DLI) is an effective therapy that improves quality of life (QoL) in advanced Parkinson's disease (PD). However, in which aspects improve the patients their QoL has been poorly documented.
METHODS: We evaluated 39-item Parkinson's disease Quality of Life Questionnaire Summary Index score (PDQ-39SI) changes analyzing its different domains in nine patients with advanced PD treated with DLI.
RESULTS: All the patients (64.7 ± 11.1 years, ...

Predictors of Global Non-Motor Symptoms Burden Progression in Parkinson’s Disease. Results from the COPPADIS Cohort at 2-Year Follow-Up
[ PUBLICATION ]
Background and Objective: Non-motor symptoms (NMS) progress in different ways between Parkinson's disease (PD) patients. The aim of the present study was to (1) analyze the change in global NMS burden in a PD cohort after a 2-year follow-up, (2) to compare the changes with a control group, and (3) to identify predictors of global NMS burden progression in the PD group. Material and Methods: PD patients and controls, recruited from 35 centers of Spain from the COPPADIS cohort from January ...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Brachial arterial flow-mediated dilation (FMD) reflects endothelium-dependent vasodilation function. FMD is diminished in patients with endothelial dysfunction (ED). Our aim was to investigate the relationship between FMD and outcome for patients with acute ischemic stroke.
METHODS: We measured FMD in 120 consecutive patients (58.3% male, median age 73 years) with acute ischemic stroke within the first 48 h of onset of the stroke, using high-resolution ...

BACKGROUND: Continuous duodenal levodopa infusion (DLI) is an effective therapy that improves quality of life (QoL) in advanced Parkinson's disease (PD). However, the impact of DLI on caregivers' stress and burden has not been reported.
METHODS: We evaluated prospectively open-label seven advanced PD patients (65.7 ± 9.6 years, 71.4% men) treated with DLI. Schwab & England Activities of Daily Living Scale (ADLS), 39-item Parkinson's disease QoL Questionnaire Summary Index score ...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: In Parkinson's disease (PD), the course of the disorder is highly variable between patients. Well-designed, prospective studies for identifying PD progression biomarkers are necessary. Our aim was to show the results of baseline evaluations of an ongoing global PD project, COPPADIS-2015 (Cohort of Patients with PArkinson's DIsease in Spain, 2015).
METHODS: This was an observational, descriptive, nationwide study (Spain). The recruitment period ended in October ...

Contextual processing deficits in Parkinson’s disease: The role of the frontostriatal system
[ PUBLICATION ]
OBJECTIVE: We investigated the role of the frontostriatal system in contextual processing, by examining neural correlates of local contextual processing in Parkinson's disease (PD). Local context was defined as the occurrence of a short predictive series of visual stimuli occurring before delivery of a target event.
METHODS: EEG was recorded in eight PD patients and eight controls. Recording blocks consisted of targets preceded by randomized sequences of standards and by sequences ...

Functional connectivity abnormalities during contextual processing in schizophrenia and in Parkinson’s disease
[ PUBLICATION ]
Functional connectivity was evaluated in patients with schizophrenia (SC) and in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) during the performance of a local contextual processing paradigm, to investigate the proposition that functional disconnection is involved with contextual processing deficits in these populations. To this end, we utilized event-related EEG signals, synchronization likelihood and graph theoretical analysis. Local context was defined as the occurrence of a predictive ...

5-2-1 Criteria: A Simple Screening Tool for Identifying Advanced PD Patients Who Need an Optimization of Parkinson's Treatment
[ PUBLICATION ]
Objective: 5- (5 times oral levodopa tablet taken/day) 2- (2 hours of OFF time/day) 1- (1 hour/day of troublesome dyskinesia) criteria have been proposed by a Delphi expert consensus panel for diagnosing advanced Parkinson's disease (PD). The aim of the present study is to compare quality of life (QoL) in PD patients with "5-2-1 positive criteria" vs QoL in PD patients without "5-2-1 positive criteria" (defined as meeting ≥1 of the criteria).
Methods: This is a cross-sectional, ...

Sleep Problems Are Related to a Worse Quality of Life and a Greater Non-Motor Symptoms Burden in Parkinson's Disease.
[ PUBLICATION ]
INTRODUCTION: The aim of the present study was to examine the frequency of self-reported sleep problems and their associated factors in a large cohort of PD patients.
METHODS: PD patients and controls, recruited from 35 centers of Spain from the COPPADIS cohort were included in this cross-sectional study. Sleep problems were assessed by the Spanish version of the Parkinson's disease Sleep Scale version 1 (PDSS-1). An overall score below 82 or a score below 5 on at least 1 item was ...

Non‐motor symptom burden is strongly correlated to motor complications in patients with Parkinson’s disease
[ PUBLICATION ]
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The objective of this study was to analyze the relationship between motor complications and non-motor symptom (NMS) burden in a population of patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) and also in a subgroup of patients with early PD.
METHODS: Patients with PD from the COPPADIS cohort were included in this cross-sectional study. NMS burden was defined according to the Non-Motor Symptoms Scale (NMSS) total score. Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) part IV ...
