Characteristics of sleep structure in Parkinson's disease patients with hallucinations based on polysomnography

Hallucination is a common non-motor symptom in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). Additionally, sleep disorders are associated with an increased risk of hallucinations in PD patients. This study aimed to examine the association between hallucination and objective sleep parameters in PD pat...

description Hallucination is a common non-motor symptom in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). Additionally, sleep disorders are associated with an increased risk of hallucinations in PD patients. This study aimed to examine the association between hallucination and objective sleep parameters in PD patients. We retrospectively recruited 278 PD patients who underwent polysomnography and clinical assessments and classified them into non-hallucination and hallucination groups. Hallucinations were observed in 77 older PD patients who had more severe motor symptoms and higher scores on the Non-Motor Symptoms Questionnaire (NMSQ), Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD) and Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA) but lower scores on the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MOCA) and PD Sleep Scale (PDSS) than PD patients without hallucinations. Analysis of the polysomnographic variables in patients with hallucinations showed that they exhibited a decrease in total sleep time, sleep efficiency (SE), rapid eye movement (REM) sleep time and slow wave sleep (SWS, N3) time and percentage but a significant increase in wake time after sleep onset (WASO), periodic limb movement index (PLMI) scores, and stage 2 NREM (N2)percentage. Logistic regression analysis revealed that higher NMSQ scores, lower MOCA scores, lower SE, and a lower percentage of N3 sleep were associated with hallucinations in PD patients. Our results suggested that PD patients with hallucinations had worse sleep quality and differences in sleep architecture (measured by polysomnography).
