Background: Parkinsons disease (PD) is a common heterogeneous neurodegenerative disorder in elder population.
Parkinsons disease dementia (PDD) is one of the most common non-motor manifestations in PD patients.
No comprehensive review has been conducted to assess risk factors for PDD.
Methods: A systemic search for studies on PDD risk factors was performed. Cohort and casecontrol studies
that clearly defined PDD and presented relevant data were included. The data were analyzed to generate a
pooled effect size and 95 % confidence interval (CI). Publication bias was assessed using the Eggers test and
the Beggs test.
Results: A systematic search was conducted and yielded 5195 articles. After screening, 25 studies were included in the
current analysis. Development of PDD was positively associated with age (odds ratio [OR] 1.07, 95 % CI 1.03-1.13), male
(OR 1.33, 95 % CI 1.08-1.64), higher Unified Parkinsons Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) part III scores (relative risk [RR] 1.04,
95 % CI 1.01-1.07), hallucination (OR 2.47, 95 % CI 1.36-4.47), REM sleep behavior disorder (RBD) (OR 8.38, 95 % CI
3.87-18.08), smoking (ever vs. never) (RR 1.93, 95 % CI 1.15-3.26) and hypertension (OR 1.57, 95 % CI 1.11-2.22).
An inverse association was found between education (RR 0.94, 95 % CI 0.91-0.98) and PDD. Other reported factors,
including age of onset, disease duration of PD, Hoehn and Yahr stage and diabetes mellitus were not significantly
associated with PDD.
Conclusions: Advanced age, male, higher UPDRS III scores, hallucination, RBD, smoking and hypertension increase the
risk of PDD, whereas higher education is a protective factor for PDD.
