    • We collected MRI diffusion tensor imaging data from 80 younger (20-32 years) and 63 older (60-71 years) healthy adults. Tract-based spatial statistics (TBSS) analysis revealed that white matter integrity, as indicated by decreased fractional anisotropy (FA), was disrupted in numerous structures in older compared to younger adults. These regions displayed five distinct region-specific patterns of age-related differences in other diffusivity properties: (1) increases in both radial and mean diffusivity; (2) increases in radial diffusivity; (3) no differences in parameters other than FA; (4) a decrease in axial and an increase in radial diffusivity; and (5) a decrease in axial and mean diffusivity. These patterns suggest different biological underpinnings of age-related decline in FA, such as demyelination, Wallerian degeneration, gliosis, and severe fiber loss, and may represent stages in a cascade of age-related degeneration in white matter microstructure. This first simultaneous description of age-related differences in FA, mean, axial, and radial diffusivity requires histological and functional validation as well as analyses of intermediate age groups and longitudinal samples.

  • Early Recognition of Cognitive Ability and Nutritional Markers for Dementia in Parkinson’s Disease
  • 2018
  • Ingår i: Journal of Aging Research & Clinical Practice. - Auzeville-Tolosane : SERDI. - 2258-8094 .- 2273-421X .- 2534-773X. ; 7, s. 156-162

    • Background: Cognitive decline and dementia are common non-motor problems in Parkinson’s disease (PD). The underlying aetiology is multifaceted and both chronic and reversible causes for cognitive decline are likely to be present. Malnutrition is frequent in the Parkinson population, both early and late in the disease, and nutritional deficiencies could play a role in some cognitive deficits. Objectives: The objective is to study the association between nutritional status with focus on iron intake and homeostasis, mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and PD dementia (PDD). Setting and Participants: This study included 73 out of 145 patients with PD participating in a population-based study in northern Sweden. Measurements: Registration of nutritional status by laboratory analyses of blood plasma and neuropsychological assessments at time of diagnosis were performed. MCI and PDD were assessed yearly up to ten years after diagnosis. Mini Nutritional Assessments (Full-MNA score) and plasma variables detecting iron homeostasis were compared between patients with MCI and patients with normal cognition (NC). Motor severity was measured using the Unified Parkinson´s disease rating scale III, (UPDRS III) and Hoehn and Yahr (H&Y) staging scale. Cox proportional Hazard model were performed to see if any variables that differed between MCI and NC could predict PDD at follow-up. Results: Patients with MCI at time of diagnosis had lower levels of plasma iron (P-Fe) and albumin (P-Albumin) as well as a lower score on Full-MNA score. Dietary intake of iron was higher in patients with MCI than in patients with NC (p = 0.012). In logistic regression models adjusted for age, sex, and UPDRS III, lower levels of P-Fe (p = 0.025) and P-Albumin (p = 0.011) and higher dietary iron intake (p = 0.019) were associated with MCI at baseline. A Cox regression model with dementia as endpoint revealed that lower levels of P-Fe increase the risk of dementia at follow-up with adjustments for age, sex, UPDRS III, and MCI at baseline (HR 95% CI = 0.87 (0.78-0.98), p = 0.021). Conclusions: Low P-Fe was associated with cognitive disturbance at baseline and predicted dementia up to ten years after diagnosis in patients with PD. Low P-Albumin and malnutrition assessed with Full-MNA score were associated with MCI at baseline but did not predict dementia at follow-up.

    • BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: To investigate whether vitamin-B density in the diet 2-8 years before diagnosis is associated with olfactory function at the time of diagnosis.SUBJECTS/METHODS: This prospective nested case-control study included patients with Parkinson's disease (PD), multiple system atrophy and progressive supranuclear paralysis identified between 2004 and 2009 in the county of Västerbotten in northern Sweden. The case database (NYPUM study; Newly Diagnosed Parkinson in Umeå; n=147) was cross-linked to the Northern Sweden Health and Disease Study (NSHDS). Identified patients (n=96) and controls (n=375) were matched for sex, age, year of health survey, sub-cohort and geographical area. Dietary intake was assessed by a food frequency questionnaire, and the brief smell identification test (B-SIT) was used to measure olfactory function at the time of diagnosis.RESULTS: There was no difference in vitamin-B or any other macro- or micro-nutrient densities, energy intake or body mass index (kg/m(2); BMI) between patients and controls at baseline at the time of the healthcare survey. A lower thiamin and folate density, amount per 1 megajoule, was reported in patients who scored below median on B-SIT (<7) when compared with that in patients who scored ⩾7 at the time of diagnosis. After adjusting for age, sex and BMI using linear and logistic regressions, an even stronger association was found between thiamin density and olfactory function.CONCLUSIONS: A low thiamin and folate density in the reported diet, 2-8 years before PD diagnosis, was significantly associated with olfactory dysfunction at the time of PD diagnosis.European Journal of Clinical Nutrition advance online publication, 5 October 2016; doi:10.1038/ejcn.2016.181.

    • Background & aim: Swallowing disturbances are associated with older age as well as with other subclinical disturbances of multifactorial origin in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). This study assesses nutritional markers and whole-body impedance data to better understand swallowing disturbances in Parkinson's disease.Design and patients included: This cross-sectional study includes baseline data from a cohort of newly diagnosed patients identified in the New Parkinsonism in Umeå study (NYPUM) (n = 75).Methods: Swallowing disturbance was registered as a score of one or more on the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) section II question number 7 on swallowing. The analysis used nutritional markers in plasma and anthropometry from bioimpedance.Results: Bivariate analysis revealed that swallowing disturbances were associated with low plasma phosphate levels for males (r = −0.428; p = 0.005) and for all patients with PD (r = −0.241; p = 0.037). In males but not in females, a negative association was found between age and albumin and amount of intra-cellular water (ICW, l). Plasma albumin was associated with plasma phosphate (r = 0.315; p = 0.006; n = 75, r = 0.361; p = 0.036; n = 34, r = 0.310; p = 0.049; n = 41). Another risk pattern indicating swallowing disturbance in females was revealed by an association with visceral adiposity index (VAI), plasma triglycerides (TG), and triglyceride/high density lipoprotein (TG/HDL) ratio. The adjusted logistic regression revealed that low phosphate in males and low magnesium in females were risk factors for swallowing disturbance.Conclusion: The age-related decline in plasma phosphate in males with PD may be an important nutritional marker for swallowing disturbances. Body composition measurements and nutritional markers provide information for the study of swallowing dysfunction as part of sarcopenia.

  • Low plasma thiamine and phosphate in male patients with Parkinson's disease is associated with mild cognitive impairment
  • 2020

    • OBJECTIVES: Thiamine deficiency (TD) and phosphate depletion increase the risk for cognitive disturbances. This study investigates whether plasma levels of thiamine (P-THIAM), thiamine-monophosphate (P-TMP), and phosphate (P-PHOS) are associated with mild cognitive decline (MCI) in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD).DESIGN AND STUDY POPULATION: This case-control study includes baseline data from a cohort of newly diagnosed patients identified in the New Parkinsonism in Umeå study (NYPUM) (N = 75) and an age and sex matched control group (n = 24).MEASUREMENTS: Mini Nutritional Assessment (MNA-score) and concentrations of P-THIAM, P-TMP, and P-PHOS at baseline were compared between PD patients with mild cognitive impairment (PD-MCI) and PD patients with normal cognition (PD-NC). Neuropsychological assessments of MCI were performed at time of diagnosis.RESULTS: Compared to patients with NC, patients with MCI had lower levels of P-THIAM and P-TMP as well as lower scores on both the Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE) and MNA-screening test. In addition, patients with MCI were older and had more motor problems. The multiple logistic regressions adjusted for age and sex revealed that higher levels of P-THIAM and the MNA-total score were associated with a lower risk of having MCI. Higher MNA-total score and higher P-THIAM and P-PHOS concentrations decreased the risk of MCI in male patients, but not in female patients. The decreased risk of MCI with higher P-TMP levels was lost after adding age and sex to the model. Bivariate correlations between P-PHOS and P-TMP were shown for the total PD population and controls as well as for males with MCI (r = 0.533; n = 22; p = 0.011), but not for males with NC (r = 0.314; n = 19; p = 0.204). An inverse partial correlation (adjusted for age, sex and UPDRS III) was shown for P-THIAM and MNA-total (r = -0.315,p = 0.009) and -final (part II) (r = -0.395,p = 0.001) score for the PD population (n = 75).CONCLUSIONS: Higher P-THIAM and P-PHOS concentrations and higher MNA-total score were associated with a lower risk of MCI in male PD patients, findings that indicate that nutritional factors may influence cognitive function in males in the early phase of PD.

  • COBRA : A prospective multimodal imaging study of dopamine, brain structure and function, and cognition.
  • 2015
  • Ingår i: Brain Research. - : Elsevier BV. - 0006-8993 .- 1872-6240. ; 1612, s. 83-103

    • Cognitive decline is a characteristic feature of normal human aging. Previous work has demonstrated marked interindividual variability in onset and rate of decline. Such variability has been linked to factors such as maintenance of functional and structural brain integrity, genetics, and lifestyle. Still, few, if any, studies have combined a longitudinal design with repeated multimodal imaging and a comprehensive assessment of cognition as well as genetic and lifestyle factors. The present paper introduces the Cognition, Brain, and Aging (COBRA) study, in which cognitive performance and brain structure and function are measured in a cohort of 181 older adults aged 64 to 68 years at baseline. Participants will be followed longitudinally over a 10-year period, resulting in a total of three equally spaced measurement occasions. The measurement protocol at each occasion comprises a comprehensive set of behavioral and imaging measures. Cognitive performance is evaluated via computerized testing of working memory, episodic memory, perceptual speed, motor speed, implicit sequence learning, and vocabulary. Brain imaging is performed using positron emission tomography with [(11)C]-raclopride to assess dopamine D2/D3 receptor availability. Structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is used for assessment of white and gray-matter integrity and cerebrovascular perfusion, and functional MRI maps brain activation during rest and active task conditions. Lifestyle descriptives are collected, and blood samples are obtained and stored for future evaluation. Here, we present selected results from the baseline assessment along with a discussion of sample characteristics and methodological considerations that determined the design of the study.
