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

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.

Treatment and study plan

observational study

Other

natural history of non dopaminergic signs

Primary outcomes

  1. dysarthria severity assessed by the BECD scale

    Time frame: 2 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 outcomes

  1. respiratory insufficiency detection

    Time frame: 2 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)

  2. swallowing function

    Time frame: 2 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

  3. gait axial function (freezing)

    Time frame: 2 years

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

  4. Mattis scale

    Time frame: 2 years

  5. LARS scale

    Time frame: 2 years

  6. MADRS scale

    Time frame: 2 years

  7. PAS scale

    Time frame: 2 years

  8. MoCA

    Time frame: 2 years

  9. Genetic Polymorphisme

    Time frame: 2 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 )
