Cerebrospinal Fluid Patterns and the Risk of Future Dementia in Early, Incident Parkinson Disease

Abstract

The analyzed CSF biomarkers have potential usefulness as a diagnostic tool in patients with parkinsonism. In PD, high neurofilament light chain protein, low Aβ1-42, and high heart fatty acid-binding protein were related to future PDD, providing new insights into the etiology of PDD.
