Abstract

Introduction: Aim of this study was identify the prevalence of frailty in patients with idiopathic Parkinson’s disease (PD), to describe the relationship between severity of the disease and frailty, and to evaluate if timed up and go (TUG) is an eligible test for determination of frailty in idiopathic PD patients. Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study which included 66 patients, aged 60 and over in a tertiary hospital. Frailty was assessed by the Fried Frailty Index (FFI). Severity of the idiopathic PD was detected by the Hoehn and Yahr (H&Y) scale. Mobility was measured by the TUG test. Demographic characteristics and comprehensive geriatric assessments were evaluated. Descriptive statistics and logistic regression were used in analyses. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to identify the discriminative effect of TUG test on frailty. Results: The numbers of frail, prefrail, and robust subjects were 34 (51.5%), 24 (36.4%), and 8 (12.1%), respectively. Dependency in instrumental activities of daily living (IADL) was significantly associated with frailty (Odds ratio (OR): 36.00, Confidence interval (CI): 8.43–153.80). Multivariate logistic regression analysis results yielded, depression (OR: 10.37, CI: 2.82–38.12) and higher levodopa doses (OR: 6.28, CI: 1.77– 22.24) were independently associated with frailty. TUG test performance was strongly associated with frailty with high sensitivity (0.806) and specificity (0.826) (Area under the curve (AUC): 0.831). Conclusions: Frailty is highly prevalent in idiopathic PD and is strongly associated with disabilities as well as specific risk factors of the disease. The TUG may be a reliable test for prediction of frailty in patients with idiopathic PD.

Özet

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı, idiyopatik Parkinson hastalığı (PH) olanhastalarda kırılganlık prevalansını belirlemek, hastalığın şiddeti ilekırılganlık arasındaki ilişkiyi tanımlamak ve zamanlı kalk ve yürü(TUG) testinin idiyopatik PH’de kırılganlık tayini için uygunluğunudeğerlendirmektir.Yöntem: Üçüncü basamak bir merkezde 60 yaş ve üzeri 66 hastadanoluşan bir kesitsel çalışma gerçekleştirildi. Kırılganlık, Fried Frailty Index(FFI) ile değerlendirildi. İdiyopatik PH’nin şiddeti Hoehn ve Yahr (H &Y) ile tespit edildi. Mobilite TUG testi ile ölçüldü. Demografik özelliklerve kapsamlı geriatrik değerlendirme yapıldı. Analizlerde tanımlayıcıistatistikler ve lojistik regresyon analizi kullanıldı. TUG testinin kırılganlıküzerindeki tanımlayıcı etkisini belirlemek için alıcı işletim karakteristikeğrileri (ROC) kullanıldı.Bulgular: Kırılgan, kırılganlık-öncesi ve sağlam bireylerin sayısı sırasıyla34 (%51,5), 24 (%36,4) ve 8 (%12,1) idi. Günlük yaşam aktivitelerindeki(GYA) bağımlılık, kırılganlık ile ilişkili bulundu (Odds oranı (OR): 36,00,Güven aralığı (CI): 8,43–153,80). Çok değişkenli lojistik regresyon analizisonuçlarına göre, depresyon (OR: 10,37, CI: 2,82–38,12) ve yükseklevodopa dozları (OR: 6,28, CI: 1,77–22,24) kırılganlık için anlamlı riskfaktörleri idi. TUG test performansı kırılganlık ile yakın ilişkili bulundu(Duyarlılık (0,806) ve özgüllük (0,826) (Eğri altındaki alan (AUC): 0,831).Sonuç: Kırılganlık idiyopatik PH’de oldukça yaygındır ve hastalığınspesifik risk faktörlerinin yanı sıra bağımlılık için önemli bir faktördür.TUG, idiyopatik PH’li hastalarda kırılganlığın tahmini için güvenilir birtest olabilir.
