Beyond PD-MCI: objectively defined subtle cognitive decline predicts future cognitive and functional changes
Objective Cognitive impairment is prevalent among individuals with Parkinson's disease
(PD). Effort has been made to identify individuals at risk for cognitive decline and dementia.
Objectively-defined subtle cognitive decline (Obj-SCD) is a novel classification that may
identify individuals at risk for cognitive decline prior to a diagnosis of mild cognitive
impairment (MCI). We examined the utility of Obj-SCD criteria to predict future cognitive
decline and difficulties with activities of daily living (ADLs) among individuals with PD …

Objective
Cognitive impairment is prevalent among individuals with Parkinson’s disease (PD). Effort has been made to identify individuals at risk for cognitive decline and dementia. Objectively-defined subtle cognitive decline (Obj-SCD) is a novel classification that may identify individuals at risk for cognitive decline prior to a diagnosis of mild cognitive impairment (MCI). We examined the utility of Obj-SCD criteria to predict future cognitive decline and difficulties with activities of daily living (ADLs) among individuals with PD.
Method
The sample included 483 individuals newly diagnosed with PD. Participants were followed for a five-year span with yearly visits where they completed neuropsychological tests. Participants were categorized as cognitively normal (CN), the newly proposed Obj-SCD, PD-MCI or Parkinson’s disease dementia (PDD). Analyses determined if utilization of Obj-SCD criteria predicted subsequent cognitive impairment and difficulties with ADLs.
Results
At baseline, 372 (77%) participants were classified as CN, 40 (8.3%) classified as Obj-SCD, and 71 (14.7%) classified as PD-MCI. Analyses revealed that relative to the CN group, participants classified as Obj-SCD at baseline, were more likely to develop PD-MCI or PDD within 5 years (odds ratio 2.413; 95% confidence interval 1.215–4.792). Furthermore, the Obj-SCD represented an intermediate level of impairment, relative to the CN and PD-MCI groups, on an independent measure of cognition (Montreal Cognitive Assessment) and ADL.
Conclusions
Findings provide evidence that Obj-SCD criteria can identify individuals at risk for cognitive decline and impairments in ADL. Obj-SCD criteria may identify individuals at risk for cognitive impairment who are not detected by PD-MCI criteria.
