Résumé
Patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) carrying variants in the Glucocerebrosidase (GBA) gene (GBA-PD) suffer from orthostatic symptoms more frequently than idiopathic PD patients (IPD). Systematic measurements of the blood pressure have not yet been performed. In the present study, a prospective analysis of 33 GBA-PD and 313 IPD patients was carried out. Systolic blood pressure upon changing from the supine to the upright position dropped more strongly in GBA-PD compared to IPD patients. Diastolic blood pressure and heart rate did not differ between groups. This study provides further evidence for a pronounced involvement of the autonomic nervous system in GBA-PD.
