ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
In early-stage Parkinson's disease (PD), rapid eye movement (REM) sleep behavior disorder (RBD) predicts poor cognitive and motor outcome. However, the baseline significance and disease evolution associated with isolated REM sleep without atonia (iRWA, ie, enhanced muscle tone during 8.7% of REM sleep, but no violent behavior) are not well understood.OBJECTIVES:
The objective is to determine whether iRWA was a mild form of RBD and progressed similarly over time.METHODS:
Participants with early PD (<4 years from medical diagnosis) were included from 2014 to 2021 in a longitudinal study. They underwent interviews and examinations in the motor, cognitive, autonomous, psychiatric, sensory, and sleep domains every year for 4 years along with a video polysomnography and magnetic resonance imaging examination of the locus coeruleus/subcoeruleus complex (LC/LsC) at baseline. The clinical characteristics were compared between groups with normal REM sleep, with iRWA and with RBD, at baseline and for 4 years.RESULTS:
Among 159 PD participants, 25% had RBD, 25% had iRWA, and 50% had normal REM sleep. At baseline, the non-motor symptoms were less prevalent and the LC/LsC signal intensity was more intense in participants with iRWA than with RBD. Over 4 years, participants with normal REM sleep and with iRWA had a similar cognitive and motor trajectory, whereas participants with RBD had greater cognitive and motor decline.CONCLUSIONS:
We demonstrated that iRWA is frequent in early PD, but is not a milder form of RBD. Both groups have distinct baseline characteristics and clinical trajectories. They should be distinguished in clinical routine and research protocols. © 2024 The Authors.
