Abstract
Background and purpose: Lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) are frequently observed in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD), but the underlying mechanism remains elusive. The concept of "body-first" and "brain-first" subtypes in PD has been proposed, but the correlation of PD subtype with LUTS remains unclear. We aimed to investigate the disparities in urological dysfunctions between body-first and brain-first subtypes of PD using urodynamic studies (UDS).
Methods: We reviewed patients with PD (disease duration <3 years) who had undergone UDS and completed urological questionnaires (Overactive Bladder Symptom Score [OABSS] and International Prostate Symptom Score [IPSS]) and a voiding diary. Patients were categorized as having body-first or brain-first PD based on cardiac sympathetic denervation (CSD) using cardiac meta-iodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) uptake and the presence of rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (RBD), assessed using a questionnaire (PD with CSD and RBD indicating the body-first subtype).
Results: A total of 55 patients with PD were categorized into body-first PD (n = 37) and brain-first PD (n = 18) groups. The body-first PD group exhibited smaller voiding volume and first desire volume (FDV) than the brain-first PD group (p < 0.05 in both). Also, the body-first PD group had higher OABSS and IPSS scores, and higher prevalence of overactive bladder diagnosed by OABSS, compared to the brain-first PD group. In multiple linear regression, cardiac MIBG uptake was positively correlated with FDV and voiding volume and negatively correlated with OABSS and IPSS (p < 0.05 in all).
Conclusions: Patients with the body-first PD subtype exhibited more pronounced overactive bladder symptoms and impaired storage function in the early stage of disease. Additionally, cardiac MIBG was significantly associated with urological dysfunction.

The European Journal of Neurology is the official journal of the European Academy of Neurology and covers all areas of clinical and basic research in neurology, including pre-clinical research of immediate translational value for new potential treatments. Emphasis is placed on major diseases of large clinical and socio-economic importance (dementia, stroke, epilepsy, headache, multiple sclerosis, movement disorders, and infectious diseases).
