ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION:
Emerging evidence has suggested that lipid metabolism is correlated with Parkinson's disease (PD) onset and progression. However, the effect of lipid metabolism on motor performance in PD patients is still unknown. This study estimated the association between lipid profiles and the severity of motor performance in PD.METHODS:
This cross-sectional study enrolled 279 idiopathic PD patients from the Department of Neurology of Beijing Tiantan Hospital from May 2016 to August 2018. Serum triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), apolipoprotein A1 (Apo-A1), and apolipoprotein B (Apo-B) levels were detected in fast serum samples. Motor performance was assessed by Movement Disorder Society-Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale part III (MDS-UPDRS III) total scores and subscores in these patients. The associations of lipid profiles with motor performance were analyzed using multivariable linear regression models.RESULTS:
Compared to males, females with PD exhibited significantly higher serum TC, LDL-C, HDL-C, Apo-A1, and Apo-B levels. When accounting for covariates, lower serum TG levels were significantly associated with higher MDS-UPDRS III total scores and gait/postural instability subscores. Additionally, the univariate linear regression model showed that in males with PD, serum HDL-C or Apo-A1 levels were significantly associated with tremor subscores.CONCLUSION:
Lower serum TG levels were associated with more severe motor performance in patients with PD and TG may be a potential predictive biomarker for motor performance in PD patients.Palabras clave
