Neuropsychiatric adverse events (AEs) have been reported in both clinical trials and real-world studies, with some <i>real-world</i> cohorts suggesting higher rates among patients with prior hallucinations or cognitive impairment. The present study aimed to determine the incidence and risk factors of neuropsychiatric AEs in a large prospective <i>real-world</i> cohort.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Methods</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <p>We analyzed data from the DATs-PD GETM Spanish Registry, an observational, prospective, multicenter, open-label study.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Results</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <p>214 patients treated with LDp/CDp CSI were included.

During follow-up after initiation (median 163 days), 19.2% developed at least one neuropsychiatric AE, mostly mild–moderate, and only 2.3% required device removal. Most events occurred more than 1 month after treatment initiation. In adjusted Cox, none of the evaluated variables were associated with the development of hallucinations/psychosis/confusion.

However, they were generally mild-to-moderate and rarely led to treatment discontinuation. Except for ICD, baseline cognitive and psychotic features were not associated with higher incidence. These findings support its use in appropriately selected patients while highlighting the importance of individualized careful clinical monitoring.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":11954,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Neurology","volume":"33 7","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2026-07-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/ene.70693","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148390301","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
