This Movement Disorder Society Genetic mutation database Systematic Review
focuses on monogenic atypical parkinsonism with mutations in the ATP13A2, DCTN1,
DNAJC6, FBXO7, SYNJ1, and VPS13C genes. We screened 673 citations and extracted
genotypic and phenotypic data for 140 patients (73 families) from 77
publications. In an exploratory fashion, we applied an automated classification
procedure via an ensemble of bootstrap-aggregated (« bagged ») decision trees to
distinguish these 6 forms of monogenic atypical parkinsonism and found a high
accuracy of 86.5% (95%CI, 86.3%-86.7%) based on the following 10 clinical
variables: age at onset, spasticity and pyramidal signs, hypoventilation,
decreased body weight, minimyoclonus, vertical gaze palsy, autonomic symptoms,
other nonmotor symptoms, levodopa response quantification, and cognitive
decline. Comparing monogenic atypical with monogenic typical parkinsonism using
2063 data sets from Movement Disorder Society Genetic mutation database on
patients with SNCA, LRRK2, VPS35, Parkin, PINK1, and DJ-1 mutations, the age at
onset was earlier in monogenic atypical parkinsonism (24 vs 40 years; P = 1.2647
× 10-12) and levodopa response less favorable than in patients with monogenic
typical presentations (49% vs 93%). In addition, we compared monogenic to
nonmonogenic atypical parkinsonism using data from 362 patients with progressive
supranuclear gaze palsy, corticobasal degeneration, multiple system atrophy, or
frontotemporal lobar degeneration. Although these conditions share many clinical
features with the monogenic atypical forms, they can typically be distinguished
based on their later median age at onset (64 years; IQR, 57-70 years). In
conclusion, age at onset, presence of specific signs, and degree of levodopa
response inform differential diagnostic considerations and genetic testing
indications in atypical forms of parkinsonism. © 2021 International Parkinson
