OBJECTIVE

To evaluate the influence of motor and autonomic disorders on the pain of patients with PD of the I—III H&Y stages and possibility of correcting the pain with dopamine receptor agonists (ADR).

MATERIAL AND METHODS

252 patients (128 women and 124 men, 42—80 years old) with PD of I—III Hoehn and Yahr stages (H&Y) were examined using the following scales: UPDRS, daily activity Sch&En, quality of life PDQ-39, MMSE, BDI, PFS-16, NMSQuest, GSRS, AUA; 53 patients were piribedil treated during 6 months.

RESULTS

Our results indicated a wide prevalence of pain syndrome in PD patients (58.6%), starting from the early stages (50% for the Ist stage). The most stable pain associations were found with the PD stage, levodopa doses, severity of motor symptoms (postural disorders and hypokinesia manifestations) and motor complications («off-periods» and dyskinesias), as well as non-motor PD manifestations depression and autonomic dysfunctions (constipation, swallowing disorders, and frequent urination). The regression analysis showed, that the severity of motor complications and depression were the predictors of pain occurrence. The pain syndrome in patients with PD of I—III stages underwent significant regression (by 51% and 62%, after 1.5 and 6 months of therapy, respectively) after ADR (piribedil) addition to their therapy; it’s probably due to improving the motor component and decreasing depressive disorders.

CONCLUSIONS

The piribedil inclusion contributes to the reduction of pain syndrome, regardless is it used in monotherapy or in conjunction with levodopa preparations.
