RESUMO

Heterogeneity in Parkinson's disease (PD) presents a barrier to understanding disease mechanisms and developing new treatments. This challenge may be partially overcome by stratifying patients into clinically meaningful subtypes. A recent subtyping scheme classifies de novo PD patients into three subtypes: mild-motor predominant, intermediate, or diffuse-malignant, based on motor impairment, cognitive function, rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (RBD) symptoms, and autonomic symptoms. We aimed to validate this approach in a large longitudinal cohort of early-to-moderate PD (n = 499) by assessing the influence of subtyping on clinical characteristics at baseline and on two-year progression. Compared to mild-motor predominant patients (42%), diffuse-malignant patients (12%) showed involvement of more clinical domains, more diffuse hypokinetic-rigid motor symptoms (decreased lateralization and hand/foot focality), and faster two-year progression. These findings extend the classification of diffuse-malignant and mild-motor predominant subtypes to early-to-moderate PD and suggest that different pathophysiological mechanisms (focal versus diffuse cerebral propagation) may underlie distinct subtype classifications.
