Impairments of olfactory and speech function are likely early prodromal symptoms of α-synucleinopathy.
The aim of this study is to assess whether dysprosody is present in isolated rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (iRBD) with hyposmia/anosmia and a normal nigrostriatal system.
Pitch variability during speech was investigated in 17 iRBD subjects with normal olfactory function (iRBD-NOF), 30 iRBD subjects with abnormal olfactory function (iRBD-AOF), and 50 healthy controls. iRBD subjects were evaluated using the University of Pennsylvania Smell Identification Test and [123I]-2ß-carbomethoxy-3ß-(4-iodophenyl)-N-(3-fluoropropyl)-nortropane dopamine transporter single-photon emission computed tomography (DAT-SPECT). All iRBD subjects completed the 24-month follow-up with DAT-SPECT, speech, and olfactory testing.
At baseline, only iRBD-AOF showed monopitch when compared to iRBD-NOF (P = 0.04) and controls (P = 0.03), with no difference between iRBD-NOF and controls (P = 1). At follow-up, dysprosody progressed only in iRBD-AOF with abnormal DAT-SPECT (P = 0.03).
Prosody is impaired in hyposmic but not in normosmic iRBD subjects before the nigrostriatal dopaminergic transmission is affected (Braak stage 2). © 2021 International Parkinson and Movement Disorder Society.
嗅觉和言语功能障碍可能是α-突触核蛋白病的早期前驱症状。
本研究旨在评估嗅觉减退/嗅觉丧失且黑质纹状体系统正常的孤立性快速眼动睡眠行为障碍(iRBD)患者是否存在韵律障碍。
对17名嗅觉功能正常的iRBD患者(iRBD-NOF)、30名嗅觉功能异常的iRBD患者(iRBD-AOF)和50名健康对照者进行言语过程中的音高变异性研究。使用宾夕法尼亚大学嗅觉识别测试和[123I]-2β-甲氧基羰基-3β-(4-碘苯基)-N-(3-氟丙基)-去甲托烷多巴胺转运体单光子发射计算机断层扫描(DAT-SPECT)对iRBD患者进行评估。所有iRBD患者均完成了为期24个月的DAT-SPECT、言语和嗅觉测试随访。
在基线时,与iRBD-NOF(P = 0.04)和对照组(P = 0.03)相比,仅iRBD-AOF表现出单音调,iRBD-NOF与对照组之间无差异(P = 1)。在随访中,韵律障碍仅在DAT-SPECT异常的iRBD-AOF中进展(P = 0.03)。
在黑质纹状体多巴胺能传递受到影响之前(Braak 2期),嗅觉减退的iRBD患者存在韵律障碍,而嗅觉正常的iRBD患者则不存在。© 2021国际帕金森病和运动障碍协会。
