Abstract

Background: The aim of this study was to assess verbal reasoning (VR) functioning in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) and healthy controls (HCs).

Methods: The non-demented PD patients and HCs matched by age and global cognition were enrolled in this study. VR was assessed with the verbal reasoning test (VRT), total score, and subsets.

Results: Eighty-seven PD patients (51 men; mean age 63.8 ± 7.9 years) and 87 HCs (46 men; mean age 63.7 ± 8.0 years) were enrolled. At univariate analysis, PD patients presented a significantly lower score in the VRT subset classification (12.3 ± 2.1) than HCs (12.9 ± 1.7) with an odds ratio (OR) of 0.8 (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.70-0.98; p = 0.003). The strength of association was also confirmed at multivariate analysis (OR = 0.8, 95% CI 0.70-0.98; p = 0.003). Moreover, in PD patients, a statistically significant positive correlation was found between VRT-classification and MoCA scores (r = 0.330; p = 0.002).

Conclusions: PD patients presented lower VR performance than HCs.

帕金森病的语言推理障碍。

背景:本研究的目的是评估帕金森病(PD)患者和健康对照(hc)的言语推理(VR)功能。方法:选取年龄和整体认知相匹配的非痴呆性PD患者和hc。VR通过言语推理测试(VRT)、总分和子集进行评估。结果:87例PD患者(男性51例;平均年龄63.8±7.9岁)和87例HCs(男性46例;平均年龄63.7±8.0岁)。在单因素分析中，PD患者在VRT亚群分类中的得分(12.3±2.1)明显低于hc患者(12.9±1.7)，优势比(OR)为0.8(95%可信区间[CI] 0.70-0.98;P = 0.003)。多变量分析也证实了相关性(OR = 0.8, 95% CI 0.70-0.98;P = 0.003)。此外，在PD患者中，vrt分类与MoCA评分之间存在统计学上显著的正相关(r = 0.330;P = 0.002)。结论:PD患者的VR表现低于hc患者。
