Study of Dysarthria, Swallowing Disorders and Respiratory in Parkinson's Disease

Completed
Conditions
Parkinson's Disease
Interventions
Other: observational study
Registration Number
NCT02627664
Lead Sponsor
University Hospital, Lille
Brief Summary

The investigators prospectively enrolled 64 early PD patients (less than 3 years after the first symptom) in order to prospectively assess the natural history of non-dopaminergic symptoms.

Detailed Description

Patients were evaluated at baseline and after 2 years in off drug condition. Clinical, psychological, neuropsychological evaluations, functional respiratory evaluation, swallowing video fluoroscopy, dysarthria, gait and axial disorders.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
dysarthria severity assessed by the BECD scale2 years

BECD (French battery of clinical evaluation of the dysarthria) is a validated scale for qualitative assessment of dysarthria severity in neurological disorders, especially PD

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
gait axial function (freezing)2 years

SWS test rhythmic tests for differens imposed frequencies (upper lower limb and facial) kinematic analysis of gait parameters by VICON (oxford metrics)

Genetic Polymorphisme2 years

To evaluate of cognitive and profile correlation to the polymorphisms of COMT (catechol-O-methyltransferase: Val158Met COMT) of MAPT H1 / H2 (microtubule associated tau protein) and ApoE (Apolipoprotein-E-ε2, 3, 4 )

respiratory insufficiency detection2 years

pulmonary function tests include spirometry with standard spirometer and maximal inspiratory and expiratory flow volume curves . At least 3 reproductible F-V curves are necessary. Values of FCV, FEV, peak expiratory flow, peak inspiratory flow, forced expiratory flow, SNIP were measured 12 hours after last levodopa intake (off drug)

swallowing function2 years

150 mL glass of water test video fluoroscopy of swallow in off drug condition face and profile incidences: qualitative analysis of oral, pharyngeal, aspiration if necessary blindly assessed by 2 ENT experts in PD

Mattis scale2 years
LARS scale2 years
MADRS scale2 years
