RBD idiopatico al follow up

Iranzo 2013 The Lancet Neurology

u idiopathic RBD represents the

prodromal phase of a Lewy body

disorder and with sufficient

follow-up most cases would

eventually be diagnosed with a

clinical defined Lewy body

disorder such as Parkinsons

disease (PD) or dementia with

Lewy bodies (DLB)

u Patients from an IRBD cohort recruited

between 1991 and 2003 and previously

assessed in 2005 were followed up

during an additional period of 7 years

u Of the 44 participants from the original

cohort 36 (82) by the 2012 assessment

16 patients were diagnosed with PD

u 14 with DLB

u 1 with multiple system atrophy

u 5 with mild cognitive impairment

Iranzo 2013

Follow-up of idiopathic RBD patients

Predicting value of PLMS

u In the study of Schenck et al 1996 the only variable that

differentiated iRBD that eventually developed PD (38)

from those remaining idiopathic was the PLMS index at

the time of RBD diagnosis (852 vs 359)

u In a serie of 100 patients with RBD diagnosed at the Sleep

Disorders Center of San Raffaele H the PLMS index was

significantly higher in the symptomatic RBD compared to

the idiopathic ones (86 vs 58 with a PLMS indexgt10) (Zucconi et al 2003)

u It is unclear whether cognitive deficits in iRBD represent an associated feature or

a marker predictive of subsequent development of a synucleinopathy

u Cross-sectional studies indicate that a proportion of iRBD patients show cognitive

deficits similar to those typically found in patients with synucleinopathies

u The available longitudinal data suggest that cognitive dysfunction in iRBD

tends to progress over time with this progression probably being

underpinned by a neurodegenerative process RBD fattore di rischio per

et al 1995)

2 Incidental Lewy body disease (brainstem-

predominant dorsal motor nucleus and medullary

tegmentum) but no significant degeneration of SN

LC and raphe nuclei (Boeve BF 2007)

Degeneration of the monoaminergic SN and LC is really the

primary cause of idiopathic RBD

u In 1 pt RBD-dementia (combined Lewy bodies + Alzheimer pathology) marked

neuronal loss within the LC but higher density of cholinergic mesopontine

neurons possible disinhibition of cholinergic neurons by reduced number of LC

neurons leading to increased REM sleep drive and RBD (Schenck et al 1996-

1997)

u in 1 pt RBD-PD severe neuronal loss of subcoeruleus nucleus with no changes

in PPTLDT nuclei (Arnulf et al 2000)

u in 4 RBD-MSA patients depletion of the cholinergic neurons in PPTLDT (Benarroch

TRATTAMENTO

The goals of therapy are to minimize the

three cardinal features of the disorder ndash

decrease the frequency and severity of the

abnormal vocalizations (thereby reducing

the embarrassing nature of screams and

swearing with guests in the home when

traveling and sleeping in hotels and when

fishinghuntingcamping and sleeping in

tents) decrease the frequency and

severity of the abnormal behaviors

(thereby reducing the risk of injury to the

patient and bedpartner) and decrease the

unpleasant dreams

Iranzo 2013 The Lancet Neurology

u idiopathic RBD represents the

prodromal phase of a Lewy body

disorder and with sufficient

follow-up most cases would

eventually be diagnosed with a

clinical defined Lewy body

disorder such as Parkinsons

disease (PD) or dementia with

Lewy bodies (DLB)

u Patients from an IRBD cohort recruited

between 1991 and 2003 and previously

assessed in 2005 were followed up

during an additional period of 7 years

Follow-up of idiopathic RBD patients

Predicting value of PLMS

u In the study of Schenck et al 1996 the only variable that

differentiated iRBD that eventually developed PD (38)

from those remaining idiopathic was the PLMS index at

the time of RBD diagnosis (852 vs 359)

Disorders Center of San Raffaele H the PLMS index was

significantly higher in the symptomatic RBD compared to

neuronal loss within the LC but higher density of cholinergic mesopontine

neurons possible disinhibition of cholinergic neurons by reduced number of LC

three cardinal features of the disorder ndash

decrease the frequency and severity of the

abnormal vocalizations (thereby reducing

the embarrassing nature of screams and

swearing with guests in the home when

traveling and sleeping in hotels and when

fishinghuntingcamping and sleeping in

Iranzo 2013 The Lancet Neurology

u idiopathic RBD represents the

prodromal phase of a Lewy body

disorder and with sufficient

follow-up most cases would

eventually be diagnosed with a

clinical defined Lewy body

disorder such as Parkinsons

disease (PD) or dementia with

Lewy bodies (DLB)

u Patients from an IRBD cohort recruited

between 1991 and 2003 and previously

assessed in 2005 were followed up

during an additional period of 7 years

u Of the 44 participants from the original

cohort 36 (82) by the 2012 assessment

16 patients were diagnosed with PD

u 14 with DLB

u 1 with multiple system atrophy

u 5 with mild cognitive impairment

Iranzo 2013

Follow-up of idiopathic RBD patients

Predicting value of PLMS

u In the study of Schenck et al 1996 the only variable that

differentiated iRBD that eventually developed PD (38)

from those remaining idiopathic was the PLMS index at

the time of RBD diagnosis (852 vs 359)

u In a serie of 100 patients with RBD diagnosed at the Sleep

Disorders Center of San Raffaele H the PLMS index was

significantly higher in the symptomatic RBD compared to

the idiopathic ones (86 vs 58 with a PLMS indexgt10) (Zucconi et al 2003)

u It is unclear whether cognitive deficits in iRBD represent an associated feature or

a marker predictive of subsequent development of a synucleinopathy

u Cross-sectional studies indicate that a proportion of iRBD patients show cognitive

deficits similar to those typically found in patients with synucleinopathies

u The available longitudinal data suggest that cognitive dysfunction in iRBD

tends to progress over time with this progression probably being

underpinned by a neurodegenerative process RBD fattore di rischio per

RBD idiopatico al follow up

Iranzo 2013 The Lancet Neurology

u idiopathic RBD represents the

prodromal phase of a Lewy body

disorder and with sufficient

follow-up most cases would

eventually be diagnosed with a

clinical defined Lewy body

disorder such as Parkinsons

disease (PD) or dementia with

Lewy bodies (DLB)

u Patients from an IRBD cohort recruited

between 1991 and 2003 and previously

assessed in 2005 were followed up

during an additional period of 7 years

u Of the 44 participants from the original

cohort 36 (82) by the 2012 assessment

16 patients were diagnosed with PD

u 14 with DLB

u 1 with multiple system atrophy

u 5 with mild cognitive impairment

Iranzo 2013

Follow-up of idiopathic RBD patients

Predicting value of PLMS

u In the study of Schenck et al 1996 the only variable that

differentiated iRBD that eventually developed PD (38)

from those remaining idiopathic was the PLMS index at

the time of RBD diagnosis (852 vs 359)

u In a serie of 100 patients with RBD diagnosed at the Sleep

Disorders Center of San Raffaele H the PLMS index was

significantly higher in the symptomatic RBD compared to

the idiopathic ones (86 vs 58 with a PLMS indexgt10) (Zucconi et al 2003)

RBD idiopatico al follow up

Iranzo 2013 The Lancet Neurology

u idiopathic RBD represents the

prodromal phase of a Lewy body

disorder and with sufficient

follow-up most cases would

eventually be diagnosed with a

clinical defined Lewy body

disorder such as Parkinsons

disease (PD) or dementia with

Lewy bodies (DLB)

u Patients from an IRBD cohort recruited

between 1991 and 2003 and previously

assessed in 2005 were followed up

during an additional period of 7 years

u Of the 44 participants from the original

cohort 36 (82) by the 2012 assessment

16 patients were diagnosed with PD

u 14 with DLB

u 1 with multiple system atrophy

u 5 with mild cognitive impairment

Iranzo 2013

Follow-up of idiopathic RBD patients

Predicting value of PLMS

u In the study of Schenck et al 1996 the only variable that

differentiated iRBD that eventually developed PD (38)

from those remaining idiopathic was the PLMS index at

the time of RBD diagnosis (852 vs 359)

u In a serie of 100 patients with RBD diagnosed at the Sleep

Disorders Center of San Raffaele H the PLMS index was

significantly higher in the symptomatic RBD compared to

the idiopathic ones (86 vs 58 with a PLMS indexgt10) (Zucconi et al 2003)

2 Incidental Lewy body disease (brainstem-

predominant dorsal motor nucleus and medullary

tegmentum) but no significant degeneration of SN

LC and raphe nuclei (Boeve BF 2007)

Degeneration of the monoaminergic SN and LC is really the

primary cause of idiopathic RBD

u In 1 pt RBD-dementia (combined Lewy bodies + Alzheimer pathology) marked

neuronal loss within the LC but higher density of cholinergic mesopontine

neurons possible disinhibition of cholinergic neurons by reduced number of LC

neurons leading to increased REM sleep drive and RBD (Schenck et al 1996-

1997)

u in 1 pt RBD-PD severe neuronal loss of subcoeruleus nucleus with no changes

TRATTAMENTO

The goals of therapy are to minimize the

three cardinal features of the disorder ndash

decrease the frequency and severity of the

abnormal vocalizations (thereby reducing

the embarrassing nature of screams and

swearing with guests in the home when

traveling and sleeping in hotels and when

fishinghuntingcamping and sleeping in

tents) decrease the frequency and

severity of the abnormal behaviors

(thereby reducing the risk of injury to the

patient and bedpartner) and decrease the

unpleasant dreams

u It is unclear whether cognitive deficits in iRBD represent an associated feature or

a marker predictive of subsequent development of a synucleinopathy

u Cross-sectional studies indicate that a proportion of iRBD patients show cognitive

deficits similar to those typically found in patients with synucleinopathies

RBD idiopatico al follow up

Iranzo 2013 The Lancet Neurology

u idiopathic RBD represents the

prodromal phase of a Lewy body

disorder and with sufficient

follow-up most cases would

eventually be diagnosed with a

clinical defined Lewy body

disorder such as Parkinsons

disease (PD) or dementia with

Lewy bodies (DLB)

u Patients from an IRBD cohort recruited

between 1991 and 2003 and previously

assessed in 2005 were followed up

during an additional period of 7 years

u Of the 44 participants from the original

cohort 36 (82) by the 2012 assessment

16 patients were diagnosed with PD

u 14 with DLB

u 1 with multiple system atrophy

u 5 with mild cognitive impairment

Iranzo 2013

Follow-up of idiopathic RBD patients

Predicting value of PLMS

u In the study of Schenck et al 1996 the only variable that

differentiated iRBD that eventually developed PD (38)

from those remaining idiopathic was the PLMS index at

the time of RBD diagnosis (852 vs 359)

u In a serie of 100 patients with RBD diagnosed at the Sleep

Disorders Center of San Raffaele H the PLMS index was

significantly higher in the symptomatic RBD compared to

the idiopathic ones (86 vs 58 with a PLMS indexgt10) (Zucconi et al 2003)

u It is unclear whether cognitive deficits in iRBD represent an associated feature or

a marker predictive of subsequent development of a synucleinopathy

u Cross-sectional studies indicate that a proportion of iRBD patients show cognitive

deficits similar to those typically found in patients with synucleinopathies

neuronal loss within the LC but higher density of cholinergic mesopontine

neurons possible disinhibition of cholinergic neurons by reduced number of LC

neurons leading to increased REM sleep drive and RBD (Schenck et al 1996-

three cardinal features of the disorder ndash

decrease the frequency and severity of the

abnormal vocalizations (thereby reducing

the embarrassing nature of screams and

swearing with guests in the home when

traveling and sleeping in hotels and when

fishinghuntingcamping and sleeping in

tents) decrease the frequency and

severity of the abnormal behaviors

(thereby reducing the risk of injury to the

patient and bedpartner) and decrease the

unpleasant dreams

ultimi anni sono state nella definizione della patogenesi con il

Iranzo 2013 The Lancet Neurology

u idiopathic RBD represents the

prodromal phase of a Lewy body

disorder and with sufficient

follow-up most cases would

eventually be diagnosed with a

clinical defined Lewy body

disorder such as Parkinsons

disease (PD) or dementia with

Lewy bodies (DLB)

u Patients from an IRBD cohort recruited

between 1991 and 2003 and previously

assessed in 2005 were followed up

during an additional period of 7 years

u Of the 44 participants from the original

cohort 36 (82) by the 2012 assessment

u 5 with mild cognitive impairment

Iranzo 2013

Follow-up of idiopathic RBD patients

Predicting value of PLMS

u In the study of Schenck et al 1996 the only variable that

differentiated iRBD that eventually developed PD (38)

from those remaining idiopathic was the PLMS index at

the time of RBD diagnosis (852 vs 359)

u In a serie of 100 patients with RBD diagnosed at the Sleep

Disorders Center of San Raffaele H the PLMS index was

significantly higher in the symptomatic RBD compared to

the idiopathic ones (86 vs 58 with a PLMS indexgt10) (Zucconi et al 2003)

three cardinal features of the disorder ndash

decrease the frequency and severity of the

abnormal vocalizations (thereby reducing

the embarrassing nature of screams and

swearing with guests in the home when

traveling and sleeping in hotels and when

fishinghuntingcamping and sleeping in

tents) decrease the frequency and

severity of the abnormal behaviors

(thereby reducing the risk of injury to the

patient and bedpartner) and decrease the

unpleasant dreams

neuronal loss within the LC but higher density of cholinergic mesopontine

neurons possible disinhibition of cholinergic neurons by reduced number of LC

neurons leading to increased REM sleep drive and RBD (Schenck et al 1996-

1997)

neuronal loss within the LC but higher density of cholinergic mesopontine

neurons possible disinhibition of cholinergic neurons by reduced number of LC

neurons leading to increased REM sleep drive and RBD (Schenck et al 1996-

u In the study of Schenck et al 1996 the only variable that

differentiated iRBD that eventually developed PD (38)

from those remaining idiopathic was the PLMS index at

the time of RBD diagnosis (852 vs 359)

Disorders Center of San Raffaele H the PLMS index was

significantly higher in the symptomatic RBD compared to

Iranzo 2013 The Lancet Neurology

u idiopathic RBD represents the

prodromal phase of a Lewy body

disorder and with sufficient

follow-up most cases would

eventually be diagnosed with a

clinical defined Lewy body

disorder such as Parkinsons

disease (PD) or dementia with

Lewy bodies (DLB)

u Patients from an IRBD cohort recruited

between 1991 and 2003 and previously

assessed in 2005 were followed up

during an additional period of 7 years

u Of the 44 participants from the original

cohort 36 (82) by the 2012 assessment

16 patients were diagnosed with PD

u 14 with DLB

u 1 with multiple system atrophy

u 5 with mild cognitive impairment

Iranzo 2013

Follow-up of idiopathic RBD patients

Predicting value of PLMS

u In the study of Schenck et al 1996 the only variable that

differentiated iRBD that eventually developed PD (38)

from those remaining idiopathic was the PLMS index at

the time of RBD diagnosis (852 vs 359)

u In a serie of 100 patients with RBD diagnosed at the Sleep

Disorders Center of San Raffaele H the PLMS index was

significantly higher in the symptomatic RBD compared to

the idiopathic ones (86 vs 58 with a PLMS indexgt10) (Zucconi et al 2003)

neurons leading to increased REM sleep drive and RBD (Schenck et al 1996-

TRATTAMENTO

The goals of therapy are to minimize the

three cardinal features of the disorder ndash

decrease the frequency and severity of the

abnormal vocalizations (thereby reducing

the embarrassing nature of screams and

swearing with guests in the home when

traveling and sleeping in hotels and when

fishinghuntingcamping and sleeping in

tents) decrease the frequency and

severity of the abnormal behaviors

(thereby reducing the risk of injury to the

patient and bedpartner) and decrease the

unpleasant dreams

Iranzo 2013 The Lancet Neurology

u idiopathic RBD represents the

prodromal phase of a Lewy body

disorder and with sufficient

follow-up most cases would

eventually be diagnosed with a

clinical defined Lewy body

disorder such as Parkinsons

disease (PD) or dementia with

Lewy bodies (DLB)

u Patients from an IRBD cohort recruited

between 1991 and 2003 and previously

assessed in 2005 were followed up

during an additional period of 7 years

u Of the 44 participants from the original

cohort 36 (82) by the 2012 assessment

16 patients were diagnosed with PD

u 14 with DLB

u 1 with multiple system atrophy

u 5 with mild cognitive impairment

Iranzo 2013

Follow-up of idiopathic RBD patients

Predicting value of PLMS

u In the study of Schenck et al 1996 the only variable that

differentiated iRBD that eventually developed PD (38)

from those remaining idiopathic was the PLMS index at

the time of RBD diagnosis (852 vs 359)

u In a serie of 100 patients with RBD diagnosed at the Sleep

Disorders Center of San Raffaele H the PLMS index was

significantly higher in the symptomatic RBD compared to

the idiopathic ones (86 vs 58 with a PLMS indexgt10) (Zucconi et al 2003)

neuronal loss and gliosis in the substantia nigra

et al 1995)

2 Incidental Lewy body disease (brainstem-

predominant dorsal motor nucleus and medullary

tegmentum) but no significant degeneration of SN

LC and raphe nuclei (Boeve BF 2007)

Degeneration of the monoaminergic SN and LC is really the

primary cause of idiopathic RBD

u In 1 pt RBD-dementia (combined Lewy bodies + Alzheimer pathology) marked

neuronal loss within the LC but higher density of cholinergic mesopontine

neurons possible disinhibition of cholinergic neurons by reduced number of LC

neurons leading to increased REM sleep drive and RBD (Schenck et al 1996-

1997)

u in 1 pt RBD-PD severe neuronal loss of subcoeruleus nucleus with no changes

in PPTLDT nuclei (Arnulf et al 2000)

u in 4 RBD-MSA patients depletion of the cholinergic neurons in PPTLDT (Benarroch

three cardinal features of the disorder ndash

decrease the frequency and severity of the

abnormal vocalizations (thereby reducing

the embarrassing nature of screams and

swearing with guests in the home when

traveling and sleeping in hotels and when

fishinghuntingcamping and sleeping in

tents) decrease the frequency and

severity of the abnormal behaviors

(thereby reducing the risk of injury to the

patient and bedpartner) and decrease the

unpleasant dreams

from those remaining idiopathic was the PLMS index at

the time of RBD diagnosis (852 vs 359)

neuronal loss within the LC but higher density of cholinergic mesopontine

neurons possible disinhibition of cholinergic neurons by reduced number of LC

neurons leading to increased REM sleep drive and RBD (Schenck et al 1996-

1997)

abnormal vocalizations (thereby reducing

the embarrassing nature of screams and

swearing with guests in the home when

traveling and sleeping in hotels and when

u It is unclear whether cognitive deficits in iRBD represent an associated feature or

a marker predictive of subsequent development of a synucleinopathy

u Cross-sectional studies indicate that a proportion of iRBD patients show cognitive

deficits similar to those typically found in patients with synucleinopathies

u The available longitudinal data suggest that cognitive dysfunction in iRBD

tends to progress over time with this progression probably being

underpinned by a neurodegenerative process RBD fattore di rischio per

ultimi anni sono state nella definizione della patogenesi con il

TRATTAMENTO

The goals of therapy are to minimize the

three cardinal features of the disorder ndash

decrease the frequency and severity of the

abnormal vocalizations (thereby reducing

the embarrassing nature of screams and

swearing with guests in the home when

traveling and sleeping in hotels and when

fishinghuntingcamping and sleeping in

tents) decrease the frequency and

severity of the abnormal behaviors

(thereby reducing the risk of injury to the

patient and bedpartner) and decrease the

unpleasant dreams

TRATTAMENTO

The goals of therapy are to minimize the

three cardinal features of the disorder ndash

decrease the frequency and severity of the

abnormal vocalizations (thereby reducing

the embarrassing nature of screams and

swearing with guests in the home when

traveling and sleeping in hotels and when

fishinghuntingcamping and sleeping in

tents) decrease the frequency and

severity of the abnormal behaviors

(thereby reducing the risk of injury to the

patient and bedpartner) and decrease the

unpleasant dreams

TRATTAMENTO

The goals of therapy are to minimize the

three cardinal features of the disorder ndash

decrease the frequency and severity of the

abnormal vocalizations (thereby reducing

the embarrassing nature of screams and

swearing with guests in the home when

traveling and sleeping in hotels and when

fishinghuntingcamping and sleeping in

tents) decrease the frequency and

severity of the abnormal behaviors

(thereby reducing the risk of injury to the

patient and bedpartner) and decrease the

unpleasant dreams

ultimi anni sono state nella definizione della patogenesi con il

ridefinizione del meccanismo del sonno REM e il modello flip-flop

u It is unclear whether cognitive deficits in iRBD represent an associated feature or

a marker predictive of subsequent development of a synucleinopathy

u Cross-sectional studies indicate that a proportion of iRBD patients show cognitive

deficits similar to those typically found in patients with synucleinopathies

2 Incidental Lewy body disease (brainstem-

predominant dorsal motor nucleus and medullary

tegmentum) but no significant degeneration of SN

LC and raphe nuclei (Boeve BF 2007)

Degeneration of the monoaminergic SN and LC is really the

primary cause of idiopathic RBD

u In 1 pt RBD-dementia (combined Lewy bodies + Alzheimer pathology) marked

neuronal loss within the LC but higher density of cholinergic mesopontine

neurons possible disinhibition of cholinergic neurons by reduced number of LC

neurons leading to increased REM sleep drive and RBD (Schenck et al 1996-

1997)

u in 1 pt RBD-PD severe neuronal loss of subcoeruleus nucleus with no changes

three cardinal features of the disorder ndash

decrease the frequency and severity of the

abnormal vocalizations (thereby reducing

the embarrassing nature of screams and

swearing with guests in the home when

traveling and sleeping in hotels and when

fishinghuntingcamping and sleeping in

tents) decrease the frequency and

severity of the abnormal behaviors

(thereby reducing the risk of injury to the

patient and bedpartner) and decrease the

unpleasant dreams

three cardinal features of the disorder ndash

decrease the frequency and severity of the

abnormal vocalizations (thereby reducing

the embarrassing nature of screams and

swearing with guests in the home when

traveling and sleeping in hotels and when

fishinghuntingcamping and sleeping in

(thereby reducing the risk of injury to the

patient and bedpartner) and decrease the

unpleasant dreams

neuronal loss within the LC but higher density of cholinergic mesopontine

neurons possible disinhibition of cholinergic neurons by reduced number of LC

neurons leading to increased REM sleep drive and RBD (Schenck et al 1996-

decrease the frequency and severity of the

abnormal vocalizations (thereby reducing

the embarrassing nature of screams and

swearing with guests in the home when

traveling and sleeping in hotels and when

fishinghuntingcamping and sleeping in

patient and bedpartner) and decrease the

unpleasant dreams

primary cause of idiopathic RBD

u In 1 pt RBD-dementia (combined Lewy bodies + Alzheimer pathology) marked

neuronal loss within the LC but higher density of cholinergic mesopontine

neurons possible disinhibition of cholinergic neurons by reduced number of LC

neurons leading to increased REM sleep drive and RBD (Schenck et al 1996-

1997)

three cardinal features of the disorder ndash

decrease the frequency and severity of the

abnormal vocalizations (thereby reducing

the embarrassing nature of screams and

swearing with guests in the home when

traveling and sleeping in hotels and when

fishinghuntingcamping and sleeping in

tents) decrease the frequency and

severity of the abnormal behaviors

(thereby reducing the risk of injury to the

patient and bedpartner) and decrease the

unpleasant dreams

primary cause of idiopathic RBD

u In 1 pt RBD-dementia (combined Lewy bodies + Alzheimer pathology) marked

neuronal loss within the LC but higher density of cholinergic mesopontine

neurons possible disinhibition of cholinergic neurons by reduced number of LC

neurons leading to increased REM sleep drive and RBD (Schenck et al 1996-

1997)

abnormal vocalizations (thereby reducing

the embarrassing nature of screams and

swearing with guests in the home when

traveling and sleeping in hotels and when

abnormal vocalizations (thereby reducing

the embarrassing nature of screams and

swearing with guests in the home when

2 Incidental Lewy body disease (brainstem-

predominant dorsal motor nucleus and medullary

Degeneration of the monoaminergic SN and LC is really the

primary cause of idiopathic RBD

u In 1 pt RBD-dementia (combined Lewy bodies + Alzheimer pathology) marked

neuronal loss within the LC but higher density of cholinergic mesopontine

neurons possible disinhibition of cholinergic neurons by reduced number of LC

neurons leading to increased REM sleep drive and RBD (Schenck et al 1996-

1997)

three cardinal features of the disorder ndash

decrease the frequency and severity of the

abnormal vocalizations (thereby reducing

the embarrassing nature of screams and

swearing with guests in the home when

traveling and sleeping in hotels and when

fishinghuntingcamping and sleeping in

tents) decrease the frequency and

severity of the abnormal behaviors

patient and bedpartner) and decrease the

unpleasant dreams

Degeneration of the monoaminergic SN and LC is really the

primary cause of idiopathic RBD

u In 1 pt RBD-dementia (combined Lewy bodies + Alzheimer pathology) marked

neuronal loss within the LC but higher density of cholinergic mesopontine

neurons possible disinhibition of cholinergic neurons by reduced number of LC

neurons leading to increased REM sleep drive and RBD (Schenck et al 1996-

1997)

neuronal loss within the LC but higher density of cholinergic mesopontine

neurons leading to increased REM sleep drive and RBD (Schenck et al 1996-

primary cause of idiopathic RBD

neuronal loss within the LC but higher density of cholinergic mesopontine

neurons possible disinhibition of cholinergic neurons by reduced number of LC

neurons leading to increased REM sleep drive and RBD (Schenck et al 1996-

1997)

The goals of therapy are to minimize the

three cardinal features of the disorder ndash

decrease the frequency and severity of the

abnormal vocalizations (thereby reducing

the embarrassing nature of screams and

swearing with guests in the home when

traveling and sleeping in hotels and when

fishinghuntingcamping and sleeping in

tents) decrease the frequency and

severity of the abnormal behaviors

(thereby reducing the risk of injury to the

patient and bedpartner) and decrease the

unpleasant dreams
