Abstract

Objective: The objective of this work was to investigate survival, dementia, and genotype‐phenotype correlations in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) with and without mutations on the glucocerebrosidase gene ( GBA ). Methods: We included 2,764 unrelated consecutive PD patients: 123 GBA carriers (67 mild‐p.N370S and 56 severe mainly p.L444P) and 2,641 noncarriers. Brain perfusion and dopamine transporter imaging was analyzed, including dementia with Lewy Bodies (DLB) as an additional control group. Results: Multivariable analysis adjusted by sex, age at onset, and disease duration attributed to GBA carriers a greater risk for dementia (hazard ratio [HR] = 3.16; p < 0.001) and death (HR = 1.85; p = 0.002) than noncarriers. When dementia was introduced in the model as a time‐dependent covariate, the mortality risk remained greater in carriers (HR = 1.65; p = 0.016), suggesting that other clinical features are likely to contribute to reduced survival. At last examination, GBA carriers had worse motor symptoms, particularly nondopaminergic features. Carriers of severe mutations had greater risk for dementia compared to mild mutations ( p < 0.001), but similar mortality risk. Consistent with clinical data, GBA carriers showed reduced posterior parietal and occipital cortical synaptic activity and nigrostriatal function than PD noncarriers. Neuroimaging features of carriers of mild mutations overlapped with PD noncarriers, whereas carriers of severe mutations were closer to DLB. Interpretation: Survival is reduced in GBA carriers compared to noncarriers; this seems to be partially independent from the increased risk for early dementia. The risk for dementia is strongly modulated by type of mutation. In the clinical continuum between PD and DLB, patients with GBA mutations seem to localize midway, with carriers of severe mutations closer to DLB than to idiopathic PD. Ann Neurol 2016;80:662–673

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
