BACKGROUND Huntington's disease (HD) is a rare neurodegenerative disorder with protean clinical manifestations. Its management is challenging, consisting mainly of off-label treatments. OBJECTIVES The International Parkinson and Movement Disorder Society commissioned a task force to review and evaluate the evidence of available therapies for HD gene expansion carriers. METHODS We followed the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) approach. Eligible randomized controlled trials were identified via an electronic search of the CENTRAL, MEDLINE, and EMBASE databases. All eligible trials that evaluated one or more of 33 predetermined clinical questions were included. Risk of bias was evaluated using the Cochrane Risk of Bias tool. A framework was adapted to allow for efficacy and safety conclusions to be drawn from the balance between the GRADE level of evidence and the importance of the benefit/harm of the intervention. RESULTS Twenty-two eligible studies involving 17 interventions were included, providing data to address 8 clinical questions. These data supported a likely effect of deutetrabenazine on motor impairment, chorea, and dystonia and of tetrabenazine on chorea. The data did not support a disease-modifying effect for premanifest and manifest HD. There was no eligible evidence to support the use of specific treatments for depression, psychosis, irritability, apathy, or suicidality. Similarly, no evidence was eligible to support the use of physiotherapy, occupational therapy, exercise, dietary, or surgical treatments. CONCLUSIONS Data for therapeutic interventions in HD are limited and support only the use of VMAT2 inhibitors for specific motor symptoms. �� 2021 International Parkinson and Movement Disorder Society.

© 2022 International Parkinson and Movement Disorder Society, Background: Previous prospective studies highlighted dairy intake as a risk factor for Parkinson's disease (PD), particularly in men. It is unclear whether this association is causal or explained by reverse causation or confounding. Objective: The aim is to examine the association between genetically predicted dairy intake and PD using two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR). Methods: We genotyped a well-established instrumental variable for dairy intake located in the lactase gene (rs4988235) within the Courage-PD consortium (23 studies; 9823 patients and 8376 controls of European ancestry). Results: Based on a dominant model, there was an association between genetic predisposition toward higher dairy intake and PD (odds ratio [OR] per one serving per day = 1.70, 95% confidence interval = 1.12-2.60, P = 0.013) that was restricted to men (OR = 2.50 [1.37-4.56], P = 0.003; P-difference with women = 0.029). Conclusions: Using MR, our findings provide further support for a causal relationship between dairy intake and higher PD risk, not biased by confounding or reverse causation. Further studies are needed to elucidate the underlying mechanisms. © 2022 International Parkinson and Movement Disorder Society., This study used data from the Courage-PD consortium, conducted under a partnership agreement among 35 studies. The Courage-PD consortium is supported by the EU Joint Program for Neurodegenerative Disease research (JPND; https://www.neurodegenerationresearch.eu/initiatives/annual-calls-for-proposals/closed-calls/risk-factors-2012/risk-factor-call-results/courage-pd/).

Mainoli, B., Machado, T., Duarte, G. S., Prada, L., Gonçalves, N., Ferreira, J. J., & Costa, J. (2021). Analysis of clinical and methodological characteristics of early COVID-19 treatment clinical trials: so much work, so many lost opportunities. BMC Medical Research Methodology, 21(1), 1-10. [42]. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12874-021-01233-w Background: The COVID-19 pandemic continues to rage on, and clinical research has been promoted worldwide. We aimed to assess the clinical and methodological characteristics of treatment clinical trials that have been set forth as an early response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: First, we reviewed all registered clinical trials on COVID-19. The World Health Organization International Trials Registry Platform and national trial registries were searched for COVID-19 trials through April 19th, 2020. For each record, independent researchers extracted interventions, participants, and methodological characteristics. Second, on September 14th, 2020 we evaluated the recruitment status and availability of the results of COVID-19 treatment trials previously identified. Results: In April 2020, a total of 580 trials evaluating COVID-19 treatment were registered. Reporting quality was poor (core participant information was missing in 24.1 to 92.7%). Between 54.0 and 93.8% of the trials did not plan to include older people or those with a higher baseline risk. Most studies were randomised (67.9%), single-centre (58.3%), non-industry-funded (81.1%), to be conducted in China (47.6%), with a median duration of 184 days and a median sample size of 100 participants. Core endpoints (mortality, clinical status, and hospitalization length) were planned to be assessed in 5.2 to 13.1% of the trials. Five months later, 66 trials (11.4%) were reported as “Completed”, and only 46 (7.9%) had public results available. One hundred forty-four of 580 trials (24.8%) either had the status “Not yet recruiting” or “Suspended”, and 18 (3.1%) trials were prematurely stopped (“Terminated” or “Withdrawn”) The number of completed trials and trials with results are much lower than anticipated, considering the planned follow-up. Conclusions: Our results raise concerns about the success of the initial global research effort on COVID-19 treatment. The clinical and methodological characteristics of early COVID-19 treatment trials limit their capability to produce clear answers to critical questions in the shortest possible time. publishersversion published

We previously hypothesized that functional cognitive disorder is characterized by heightened subjective mental effort, exhausted attentional reserve and metacognitive failure. To test this hypothesis, we administered a Stroop colour-word task in which attentional demand was varied by task difficulty (congruent versus incongruent cues) and the presence of a secondary auditory stimulus (passive or active listening to an oddball-type paradigm). We measured subjective mental effort, objective performance (reaction times and accuracy), metacognition and EEG-based biomarkers of mental workload. We tested 19 functional cognitive disorder patients and 23 healthy controls. Patients reported higher levels of depression, anxiety, fatigue, pain, sleep disruption, dissociation and obsessiveness. They rated their memory as significantly poorer than healthy controls; however, accuracy did not differ between groups in any condition. In contrast to healthy controls, patients rated their performance as poorer on the congruent Stroop task with background noise compared to silent conditions. Functional cognitive disorder was consistently associated with slower reaction times but this was not exacerbated by increased attentional demand. Patients but not healthy controls reported greater mental workload in noisy conditions but EEG biomarkers were similar between groups, regardless of task difficulty. Functional cognitive disorder has significant syndromic overlap with mood disorders and chronic fatigue and pain. It is associated with global metacognitive failure whereas local (task-specific) metacognition is only selectively impaired. Patients were slower than healthy controls, which might contribute to the 'brain fog' reported in this condition. Although subjective mental effort was increased in noisy conditions, we found no evidence of attentional exhaustion in functional cognitive disorder. Our results indicate that functional cognitive disorder is a multisystem condition affecting reaction time, subjective mental effort and global metacognition. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

\n While sleep disturbances are among the most frequent non-motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease (PD), there is a lack of evidence to support its treatment.To evaluate the efficacy of opicapone 50 mg in treating sleep disturbances in patients with PD and end-of-dose motor fluctuations.OASIS was an exploratory, open-label, single-arm clinical trial in PD patients with end-of-dose motor fluctuations and associated sleep disturbances. The primary endpoint was change from baseline to week 6 in Parkinson's Disease Sleep Scale 2 (PDSS-2). Secondary endpoints included functional motor and non-motor assessments (Movement Disorder Society [MDS]-Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale [UPDRS], MDS-Non-motor Scale [NMS], 8-item PD Questionnaire [PDQ-8], 16-item PD Fatigue Scale [PFS-16], ON/OFF home diary), Clinical and Patient Global Impression of Change (CGI-C; PGI-C) and adverse events.At week 6, there was a significant reduction of −7.9 points (95%CI −13.6, −2.2;
p = 0.0099) in PDSS-2 total score, with a significant mean change of −4.7 in the PDSS-2 domain of disturbed sleep (95%CI: −7.2, −2.3;p = 0.0009). Significant reductions were also observed in PFS-16 (−9.6;p = 0.0211), MDS-NMS total score (−28.9;p = 0.0015), MDS-UPDRS-III (−6.3;p = 0.0253), MDS-UPDRS-IV (−1.2;p = 0.0044) and PDQ-8 (−14.2;p = 0.0051). Absolute OFF-time was reduced (−142.1 min). Most patients (93.3%) and most clinicians (80.0%) reported improvements on PGI-C and CGI-C, respectively. Opicapone was well tolerated.Adding opicapone 50 mg to levodopa/DDCI therapy in patients with PD and motor fluctuations and sleep disturbances improved both sleep disturbances and OFF time in these patients.Patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) commonly experience a range of sleep problems, including insomnia (difficulty falling or staying asleep), difficulties turning over in bed, excessive daytime sleepiness, acting out while sleeping, and other disruptions that affect their sleep quality and quantity, with an overall impact on their quality of life. However, there is no clear guidance on how to manage these problems. Opicapone is a PD medication that can be added to standard levodopa therapy to manage ON-OFF episodes in patients with PD. The OASIS study evaluated whether adding opicapone to a previous stable regimen of levodopa can be beneficial for sleep problems in patients with PD and ON-OFF episodes. During the OASIS study, 16 patients with a diagnosis of sleep problems associated with PD received opicapone in addition to their standard levodopa therapy for 6 weeks. At the end of the 6-week treatment period with opicapone, patients demonstrated significant improvements in overall sleep, particularly in their sleep disturbances. Moreover, patients reported improvements in motor and non-motor symptoms, including fatigue (another common symptom in patients with PD) and in their quality of life. Overall, improvements in health status and their clinical conditions were noted by both patients and clinicians following the addition of opicapone. This study suggests that opicapone can improve sleep problems in patients with PD and ON/OFF episodes but larger studies should be conducted to confirm these benefits.

© 2021 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved., Background: There is a considerable variation in the reported frequency of dementia in Parkinson's disease (PDD). The aim of this study was to evaluate the frequency of PDD reported in published studies and to examine the different methodological, clinical, and demographic factors that may contribute to this variation. Methods: We conducted a systematic review, searching EMBASE and MEDLINE databases for relevant articles on PDD frequency published before May 2019. A global estimation of PDD was calculated. Different subgroup analyses were performed for methodological, clinical, and demographic characteristics. Meta-regression was also conducted to identify any significant differences within the subgroups. Results: We included 295 studies. The global pooled dementia frequency was 26.3%. These estimations varied according to methodological (14%-55%), clinical (18%-46%), and demographic (21%-43%) variables. The declared primary objective of the studies (to study PDD), the follow-up length (≥7 years), the age of the participants (≥75 years), Parkinson's disease (PD) duration (>10 years), and the Hoehn & Yahr (H&Y) stage (>3) were important factors affecting reported dementia frequency. Conclusions: This systematic review found that approximately one-quarter of the PD patients were diagnosed with PDD. Dementia frequency varied according to methodological, clinical and demographic variables. We cannot examine PDD frequency without considering all these variables that have an impact on it., This work was supported by a Doctoral Fellowship from Fundação para a Ciência e Tecnologia, Portugal [SFRH/BD/139853/2018], which was assigned to Catarina Severiano e Sousa.

Background: The frequency of late-onset Huntington's disease (>59 years) is assumed to be low and the clinical course milder. However, previous literature on late-onset disease is scarce and inconclusive. Objective: Our aim is to study clinical characteristics of late-onset compared to common-onset HD patients in a large cohort of HD patients from the Registry database. Methods: Participants with late- and common-onset (30–50 years)were compared for first clinical symptoms, disease progression, CAG repeat size and family history. Participants with a missing CAG repeat size, a repeat size of ≤35 or a UHDRS motor score of ≤5 were excluded. Results: Of 6007 eligible participants, 687 had late-onset (11.4%) and 3216 (53.5%) common-onset HD. Late-onset (n = 577) had significantly more gait and balance problems as first symptom compared to common-onset (n = 2408) (P

The Creative Commons Public Domain Dedication waiver (http://creativeco mmons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0/) applies to the data made available in this article, unless otherwise stated in a credit line to the data., Introduction: Over the last years, the number of systematic reviews published is steadily increasing due to the global interest in this type of evidence synthesis. However, little is known about the characteristics of this research published in Portuguese medical journals. This study aims to evaluate the publication trends and overall quality of these systematic reviews. Material and methods: This was a methodological study. We aimed the most visible Portuguese medical journals indexed in MEDLINE. Systematic reviews were identified through an electronic search (through PUBMED). We included systematic reviews published up to August 2020. Systematic reviews selection and data extraction were done independently by three authors. The overall quality critical appraisal using the A MeaSurement Tool to Assess systematic Reviews (AMSTAR-2) was independently assessed by three authors. Disagreements were solved by consensus. Results: Sixty-six systematic reviews published in 5 Portuguese medical journals were included. Most (n = 53; 80.3%) were systematic reviews without meta-analysis. Up to 2010 there was a steady increase in the number of systematic reviews published, followed by a period of great variability of publication, ranging from 1 to 10 in a given year. According to the systematic reviews' typology, most have been predominantly conducted to assess the effectiveness/efficacy of health interventions (n = 27; 40.9%). General and Internal Medicine (n = 20; 30.3%) was the most addressed field. Most systematic reviews (n = 46; 69.7%) were rated as being of "critically low-quality". Conclusions: There were consistent flaws in the methodological quality report of the systematic reviews included, particularly in establishing a prior protocol and not assessing the potential impact of the risk of bias on the results. Through the years, the number of systematic reviews published increased, yet their quality is suboptimal. There is a need to improve the reporting of systematic reviews in Portuguese medical journals, which can be achieved by better adherence to quality checklists/tools.

This article is an open access article distributed under the terms and conditions of the Creative Commons Attribution (CC BY) license (https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/)., Delivering healthcare to people living with Parkinson's disease (PD) may be challenging in face of differentiated care needs during a PD journey and a growing complexity. In this regard, integrative care models may foster flexible solutions on patients' care needs whereas Parkinson Nurses (PN) may be pivotal facilitators. However, at present hardly any training opportunities tailored to the care priorities of PD-patients are to be found for nurses. Following a conceptual approach, this article aims at setting a framework for training PN by reviewing existing literature on care priorities for PD. As a result, six prerequisites were formulated concerning a framework for training PN. The proposed training framework consist of three modules covering topics of PD: (i) comprehensive care, (ii) self-management support and (iii) health coaching. A fourth module on telemedicine may be added if applicable. The framework streamlines important theoretical concepts of professional PD management and may enable the development of novel, personalized care approaches., This research was funded by the Canadian Institutes of Health Research/EU Joint Programme - Neurodegenerative Disease Research, grant number 01789-000/HESOCARE-329-073.

Prof. Egas Moniz, Lisboa, 1649-028, PortugalEmail joaquimjferreira@gmail.comAbstract: Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a prevalent neurodegenerative disorder, and levodopa (L-dopa) remains the most efficacious drug treatment for PD and a gold-standard for symptom control. Nonetheless, a significant majority of PD patients develop motor fluctuations over their disease course, with a significant impact on quality-of-life, meaning control of such complications translates into a fundamental clinical need. Catechol-O-methyl transferase (COMT) inhibitors (COMT-i) are used as first-line adjuvant therapy to L-dopa for end-of-dose (EoD) motor fluctuations, since they increase L-dopa availability in the brain by inhibiting its peripheral metabolism. Opicapone (OPC), a once-daily, long-acting COMT-i, is the most recent and potent of its class, having been licensed in Europe in 2016 as an add-on to preparations of L-dopa/DOPA decarboxylase inhibitors in PD patients with EoD motor fluctuations. More recently, it has also received approval in the USA and Japan in 2020. Two high-quality positive efficacy studies (double-blind Phase III clinical trials) established OPC efficacy with significant reduction in OFF time (average 60 minutes vs placebo), without concomitant increase of distressing dyskinesias during ON time. These beneficial effects were sustained in open-label extension studies, without unexpected safety issues or adverse events, with dyskinesia having been the most frequent complaint. OPC also avoids liver toxicity and gastrointestinal issues compared with previous COMT-i. In this review, we aimed to cover OPC’s lifecycle (synthesis to commercialization), its clinical pharmacological data, safety, tolerability and pharmacovigilance evidence, and discuss its role in the management of motor fluctuations in PD as well as its emerging place in international recommendations.Keywords: Parkinson’s disease, opicapone, motor fluctuations, COMT inhibitor, safety, tolerability
