Abstrakt: Introduction: Urinary incontinence (UI) is a common and disruptive symptom of Parkinson's disease (PD). This study aimed to identify neural correlates associated with UI among PD patients with UI (UI-PD) compared to those PD patients without UI (nonUI-PD) with the expectation of demonstrating increased functional connectivity (FC) between areas in the striatum and limbic system and decreased FC in executive areas.
Methods: rsfMRI and T1w data (n = 119) were retrieved from the Parkinson's Progression Markers Initiative (PPMI). Resting-state FC analyses assessed temporal covariance with anterior cingulate gyrus, precuneus, and putamen seed regions.
Results: The UI-PD group (n = 32, 16 females) showed significantly greater positive FC between the bilateral putamen seed and the right caudate and right thalamus (p < 0.01), relative to individuals with PD but who did not have UI (n = 87, 18 females). The UI-PD group showed greater negative FC between the anterior cingulate seed and right angular gyrus (p < 0.01) relative to nonUI-PD.
Conclusion: Individuals with PD and UI display stronger FC within neural circuits likely affected by PD such as between the putamen and caudate, as well as within those associated with brain bladder control, compared to persons with PD and without UI. Clinical application based on this study's results can provide greater discernment of treatment strategies for UI-PD patients.
