Background: The occurrence of various cerebrovascular diseases can easily induce cognitive impairment in the elderly. Therefore, it is of great clinical significance to correctly understand the relationship between these key pathogenic factors and cognitive impairment of Parkinson's disease. To explore the effect of cerebrovascular disease on cognitive impairment in Parkinson's disease by meta-analysis.
Methods: PubMed, Medline, Embase, and Web of Science databases were selected as the sources for the literature search. English language articles were included. Literature related to this study were published from January 2001 to January 2021. Literature was screened and the quality was evaluated. RevMan 5.3 software was used to perform the meta-analysis on the effects of cerebrovascular disease on cognitive impairment in Parkinson's disease.
Results: Six articles were finally included, involving a total of 5,552 cases. Of these, 2,684 were positive cases, accounting for 48.3%. Compared with patients with non-Parkinson's cognitive impairment, patients with cognitive impairment in Parkinson's disease caused by cerebral small vessel disease had significant differences in executive ability (OR =1.62, 95% CI: 1.21-2.16, P=0.001), memory (OR =1.48, 95% CI: 1.30-1.68, P<0.00001), information processing (OR =0.60, 95% CI: 0.35-1.03, P=0.07), language communication (OR= 4.72, 95% CI: 3.26-6.85, P<0.00001), and overall cognitive function (OR =0.72, 95% CI: 0.52-0.99, P=0.05).
Conclusions: A total of 6 studies were included in this meta-analysis on the influence of cerebral small vessel disease on cognitive impairment in Parkinson's disease. This study shows that cerebrovascular disease has different effects on all aspects of cognitive function of Parkinson's disease.

Objectives: It is estimated that up to 65 % of pwMS (people with multiple sclerosis) experience varying degrees of cognitive impairment, the most commonly affected domain being Information Processing Speed (IPS). As sleep disturbance is a predictor of detriments in IPS, the authors aimed to study the association between the severity of Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS) and Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) symptoms with IPS in pwMS.
Methods: In a cross-sectional study, the authors enrolled people with relapsing-remitting and secondary progressive MS referred to the comprehensive MS center of Kashani Hospital in Isfahan, Iran.

Background: Self-reported health problems following severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection are common and often include relatively non-specific complaints such as fatigue, exertional dyspnoea, concentration or memory disturbance and sleep problems. The long-term prognosis of such post-acute sequelae of COVID-19/post-COVID-19 syndrome (PCS) is unknown, and data finding and correlating organ dysfunction and pathology with self-reported symptoms in patients with non-recovery from PCS is scarce. We wanted to describe clinical characteristics and diagnostic findings among patients with PCS persisting for >1 year and assessed risk factors for PCS persistence versus improvement.

Background: Visual dysfunction, including abnormal stereopsis, is a significant non-motor symptom in Parkinson's disease (PD) that can reduce quality of life and appears early in the disease. Abnormal stereopsis is associated with worsening of bradykinesia and freezing of gait, though the exact pathways linking stereopsis to motor symptoms remain unclear. Furthermore, in PD patients, the pedunculopontine nucleus and laterodorsal tegmental complex play an active role in sensorimotor control, and these areas provide cholinergic projections.

Temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) causes pervasive and progressive memory impairments, yet the specific circuit changes that drive these deficits remain unclear. To investigate how hippocampal-entorhinal dysfunction contributes to progressive memory deficits in epilepsy, we performed simultaneous in vivo electrophysiology in the hippocampus (HPC) and medial entorhinal cortex (MEC) of control and epileptic mice 3 or 8 weeks after pilocarpine-induced status epilepticus (Pilo-SE). We found that HPC synchronization deficits (including reduced theta power, coherence, and altered interneuron spike timing) emerged within 3 weeks of Pilo-SE, aligning with early-onset, relatively subtle memory deficits.

Introduction: The administration of benzodiazepines has been linked to the occurrence of postoperative delirium (POD) among patients undergoing surgery. In this review, we aim to appraise the current controversy regarding the role of remimazolam in POD.
Evidence Acquisition: A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials was conducted to examine the effects of remimazolam administration on postoperative delirium compared to propofol from inception to April 2024.
