Özet
İngilizce (OpenAlex)
Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disease. Cognitive impairment (CI) in PD has significant negative impacts on life quality of patients. The emergence and progression of cognitive impairment shows high variability among PD patients, and thus requires better diagnostic and monitoring strategies. Recent findings indicate a close link between autonomic dysfunction and cognitive impairment. Since thermoregulatory dysfunction and skin changes are among the main manifestations of autonomic dysfunction in PD, we hypothesized that alterations in the axillary microbiota may be useful for tracking cognitive impairment stages in PD. To our knowledge, this the first study characterizing the axillary microbiota of PD patients and exploring its association with cognitive impairment stages in PD. Future studies should include larger cohorts and multicenter studies to validate our results and investigate potential biological mechanisms.
