Year | Study | Cohort Characteristics | Key Findings |
---|---|---|---|
1990 | Ebmeier et al. [10] | 267 patients and 233 matched controls in Scotland were followed for 3.5 years | The relative mortality rate was 2.35. Factors predicting death included cognitive impairment, older age, late disease onset, long-term smoking, low blood pressure, and Parkinson’s-related mobility issues |
1995 | Ben-Shlomo and Marmot [11] | 220 parkinsonian patients and 421 matched controls in the UK were followed for 20 years | The all-cause hazard ratio for patients compared with controls was 2.6. Both ischemic heart disease (2.3) and cerebrovascular disease (3.6) showed significantly increased hazard ratios |
1996 | Morens et al. [12] | 8006 middle-aged men from the Honolulu Heart Study were followed for 29 years | Between the ages of 70 and 89, Parkinson’s disease patients had a two- to three-fold increase in the mortality risk (mortality ratio = 2.5); survival was reduced by 8 years compared to controls |
1997 | Louis et al. [13] | 288 Parkinson’s disease patients, Manhattan, USA | The mortality risk, when compared with nondemented elderly subjects, was highest among those with both Parkinsón’s disease and dementia (rate ratio = 4.9). Dementia in the absence of Parkinson’s disease also was associated with an increased mortality risk (rate ratio = 1.6). A high baseline total extrapyramidal signs score was associated with significantly earlier mortality |
2000 | Berger et al. [14] | Pooled analysis of five European population-based cohorts (16,143 participants, including 252 with Parkinson’s disease) | The relative risk of death in Parkinson’s disease = 2.3. The risk for death in men with Parkinson’s disease (relative risk = 3.1) was higher than in women (relative risk = 1.8) |
2000 | Donnan et al. [15] | 97 Parkinson’s disease patients in Scotland | Parkinson’s disease patients, in relation to comparators, had higher mortality with a rate ratio of 1.76 in the 7-year cohort. There was significantly greater mortality in PD patients who received levodopa monotherapy (rate ratio = 2.45) |
2000 | Morgante et al. [16] | 59 patients and 118 matched controls in Sicily, Italy, were followed for 8 years. | Parkinson’s disease mortality was significantly higher, with a relative risk of 2.3; pneumonia was the most common cause of death |
2003 | Fall et al. [17] | 170 Parkinson’s disease patients and 510 matched controls in Sweden were followed for 9.4 years | The mortality rate ratio was 1.6 when comparing Parkinson’s disease patients with controls, and the all-cause hazard ratio was 2.4. PD patients also experienced a significantly higher proportion of deaths due to pneumonia |
2005 | de Lau et al. [18] (Rotterdam Study) | 6969 participants, including 99 prevalent and 67 incident Parkinson’s disease patients | Increased mortality risk (hazard ratio = 1.83). Within PD patients, mortality risk was influenced by disease duration and by the occurrence of dementia |
2010 | Forsaa et al. [19] | 230 Parkinson’s disease patients, followed from 1993 to 2009, Norway | Median survival was 15.8 years; mortality predictors included higher age at onset, older age, male sex, more severe motor impairment, psychotic symptoms, and dementia |
2011 | Posada et al. [7] (NEDICES Study) | 5262 participants, including 81 Parkinson’s disease patients, followed over 13 years in Spain | Parkinson’s disease mortality was higher (adjusted hazard ratio = 1.75); dementia further increased the risk (adjusted hazard ratio = 2.60) |
2017 | Savica et al. [20] | 461 patients with synucleinopathies, Minnesota, USA | Parkinson’s disease with dementia had a hazard ratio for death of 3.86. Parkinson’s disease alone had a hazard ratio of 1.75, while multiple system atrophy with parkinsonism exhibited the highest mortality, with a hazard ratio of 10.51 |
2018 | Hobson and Meara [21] | 166 Parkinson’s disease patients and 102 controls, followed for 18 years in Wales | Compared with the general UK population, Parkinson’s disease patients had a higher mortality risk, with a standardized mortality ratio of 1.82. The most common causes of death were pneumonia and cardiac-related conditions |
2018 | Keener et al. [22] | 360 Parkinson’s disease patients in California with a mean follow-up period of 5.8 years | Lower baseline Mini-mental State scores, reported longer average sleep duration, greater motor symptom severity, and motor subtype (postural instability gait difficulty) were significant predictors of mortality |
2019 | Hoogland et al. [23] | 133 newly diagnosed Parkinson’s disease patients in the Netherlands followed for at least 13 years | Increased mortality was associated with mild cognitive impairment, higher levodopa dose, and earlier onset |
