Abstract
Background
Globally, Parkinson's disease (PD) is one of the common neurodegenerative diseases in the elderly with increasing morbidity and disability, and its clinical pathogenesis is not clear.
Objective
To compare the differences in disease severity and blood biomarkers levels and their correlation between patients with early-onset Parkinson's disease (EOPD) and late-onset Parkinson's disease (LOPD).
Methods
A total of 342 patients diagnosed with PD were retrospectively collected. PD patients were categorized into EOPD (24 patients) and LOPD (318 patients) according to the age of onset of the disease. The Hoehn-Yahr (HY) staging was used to assess the severity of the disease in PD patients. Subjective rating scales such as the Mini-mental State Examination (MMSE) were used to assess the motor and non-motor functions of the patients. The differences of objective blood biomarkers such as triglyceride (TG) between the two groups were investigated. The correlation between them and PD was explored by logistic analysis.
Results
Percentage of EOPD group with HY staged as intermediate to late and Scales for Outcomes in Parkinson's Disease-Autonomic (SCOPA-AUT), Movement Disorder Society-Unified Parkinson's disease Rating Scale-III (MDS-UPDRS-III), Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) score and TG, non-high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (N-HDL-C), homocysteine (HCY), apolipoprotein B (Apo-B), free triiodothyronine (FT3), free thyroxine (FT4), high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) levels were lower than those in the LOPD group (P < 0.05); and the proportion of HY staged as early stage, Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA) and Fatigue severity scale (FSS) scores and the levels of vitamin B12 were higher than those in the LOPD group (P < 0.05). The results of Multifactorial Logistic regression analysis showed that N-HDL-C [OR = 1.409, 95 % CI (1.063, 1.868)], Apo-B [OR = 0.797, 95 % CI (0.638, 0.997)], Vitamin B12 [OR = 0.992, 95 % CI (0.987, 0.998)] and hs-CRP [OR = 1.124, 95 % CI (1.070, 1.182)] were independent factors affecting the severity of PD, with significant differences between groups (P < 0.05).
Conclusion
N-HDL-C, Apo-B, Vitamin B12, and hs-CRP levels play an important role in the progression of PD.
