Abstract

Background: Prior studies report that monoamine oxidases inhibitors (MAO-I) when used as an adjunct to levodopa ameliorate motor symptoms in Parkinson’s disease (PD), but this was not tested in relation to cognitive or psychiatric measures.

Objective: Here, we tested the effects of MAO-I as an adjunct to levodopa, in comparison to levodopa or dopamine (DA) agonists alone, on various cognitive, affective and quality of life measures.

Methods: We studied three groups of subjects: healthy controls, PD patients on combined levodopa and MAO-I, and PD patients on levodopa or DA agonists only.

Results: We found that compared to monotherapy, combined MAO-I and levodopa seemed to improve cognition, including probabilistic learning, working memory and executive functions. There were no differences between the different medication regimes on deterministic learning, attention or memory recall. It was also found that MAO-I as an adjunct to levodopa improves affective measures such as depression, apathy, anxiety and quality of life. Interestingly, this enhancing effect of combined levodopa and MAO-I was more pronounced in PD patients with severe akinesia, compared to patients with severe tremor.

Conclusion: Our data are in agreement with (a) the Continuous Dopaminergic Stimulation (CDS) theory which states that continuous stimulation of the basal ganglia enhances motor, psychiatric and cognitive functions in PD patients; and/or (b) findings that MAO-I increase the bioavailability of monoamines that have beneficial effects on motor and behavioral dysfunction in PD.

<abstract>
<p>
<bold>Background</bold>
: Prior studies report that monoamine oxidases inhibitors (MAO-I) when used as an adjunct to levodopa ameliorate motor symptoms in Parkinson’s disease (PD), but this was not tested in relation to cognitive or psychiatric measures.</p>
<p>
<bold>Objective</bold>
: Here, we tested the effects of MAO-I as an adjunct to levodopa, in comparison to levodopa or dopamine (DA) agonists alone, on various cognitive, affective and quality of life measures.</p>
<p>
<bold>Methods</bold>
: We studied three groups of subjects: healthy controls, PD patients on combined levodopa and MAO-I, and PD patients on levodopa or DA agonists only.</p>
<p>
<bold>Results</bold>
: We found that compared to monotherapy, combined MAO-I and levodopa seemed to improve cognition, including probabilistic learning, working memory and executive functions. There were no differences between the different medication regimes on deterministic learning, attention or memory recall. It was also found that MAO-I as an adjunct to levodopa improves affective measures such as depression, apathy, anxiety and quality of life. Interestingly, this enhancing effect of combined levodopa and MAO-I was more pronounced in PD patients with severe akinesia, compared to patients with severe tremor.</p>
<p>
<bold>Conclusion</bold>
: Our data are in agreement with (a) the Continuous Dopaminergic Stimulation (CDS) theory which states that continuous stimulation of the basal ganglia enhances motor, psychiatric and cognitive functions in PD patients; and/or (b) findings that MAO-I increase the bioavailability of monoamines that have beneficial effects on motor and behavioral dysfunction in PD.</p>

<title>Introduction</title>
<sec id="s1-1">
<title>Pharmacological therapy for Parkinson’s disease</title>
<p>Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a progressive and neurodegenerative movement disorder associated with a substantial loss of dopamine (DA) neurons in the substantia nigra (Kish et al.,
<xref rid="B38" ref-type="bibr">1988</xref>
), which are essential for regulating the function of the striatum (a major input structure of the basal ganglia), and the control of voluntary movement.</p>
<p>Standard pharmacological medications for PD include levodopa, various kinds of DA agonists, and Monoamine Oxidases Inhibitors (MAO-I), among others. These medications are prescribed as either monotherapy (taken alone) or polytherapy (using more than one medication in combination) (Rinne,
<xref rid="B65" ref-type="bibr">1987</xref>
). Levodopa is a DA precursor, taken up by DA cells and converted into DA (Trugman et al.,
<xref rid="B74" ref-type="bibr">1991</xref>
; Muriel et al.,
<xref rid="B47" ref-type="bibr">2002</xref>
; Grace,
<xref rid="B23" ref-type="bibr">2008</xref>
). MAO- I are a class of chemicals that inhibit the activity of monoamine oxidase enzymes, thus preventing the breakdown of monoamine neurotransmitters, including DA (O’Carroll et al.,
<xref rid="B51" ref-type="bibr">1983</xref>
; Dewey,
<xref rid="B12" ref-type="bibr">2004</xref>
; Robottom,
<xref rid="B66" ref-type="bibr">2011</xref>
). MAO-B inhibitors are often administered in the earlier stages of PD, including selegiline and rasagiline. Both these drugs are used either as monotherapy or in combination with levodopa (Caslake et al.,
<xref rid="B7" ref-type="bibr">2009</xref>
; Riederer and Laux,
<xref rid="B63" ref-type="bibr">2011</xref>
; Fabbrini et al.,
<xref rid="B17" ref-type="bibr">2012</xref>
). While the beneficial effects of these drugs on the motor symptoms of PD are well established, their effects on cognitive and affective symptoms are not as thoroughly investigated.</p>

<sec id="s1-2">
<title>Effects of MAO-B Inhibitors on motor, cognitive, and affective processes in Parkinson’s disease</title>
<p>As monotherapy, MAO-B inhibitors may be more effective at the early stages of PD and can delay the need for levodopa. When taken in combination with levodopa (especially as it is usually done in advanced stages of PD), they are known to prolong the effectiveness of levodopa, reduce the amount of levodopa required to control the symptoms and reduce motor fluctuations (Henchcliffe et al.,
<xref rid="B27" ref-type="bibr">2005</xref>
; Riederer and Laux,
<xref rid="B63" ref-type="bibr">2011</xref>
). While the effectiveness of selegiline in controlling the motor symptoms of PD has been reported as early as 1975 with the first clinical trial by Birkmayer et al. (
<xref rid="B3" ref-type="bibr">1975</xref>
), the effect of rasagiline on motor processes was recently confirmed by several large multicenters as well as smaller clinical trials (Parkinson Study Group,
<xref rid="B56" ref-type="bibr">2002</xref>
; Olanow et al.,
<xref rid="B53" ref-type="bibr">2009</xref>
). Notable among these studies which used rasagiline as a monotherapy are the ADAGIO and TEMPO studies. The TEMPO study showed the effectiveness of rasagiline on motor processes (as measured by the UPDRS scores), over a 26-week double blind placebo controlled clinical trial on 404 patients with early PD (Parkinson Study Group,
<xref rid="B56" ref-type="bibr">2002</xref>
). Further, the ADAGIO study noted that 1 mg of MAO-B-I might have a disease modifying effect as observed in activities of daily living scale and the rate of change in the UPDRS scale (Olanow et al.,
<xref rid="B53" ref-type="bibr">2009</xref>
). Importantly, a recent meta-analysis study found that MAO-B inhibitors as an adjunct to levodopa is superior to levodopa alone at reducing PD symptoms in PD patients (Talati et al.,
<xref rid="B72" ref-type="bibr">2009</xref>
).</p>
<p>Research on the effect of MAO Inhibitors on cognitive, behavioral as well as emotional functions in PD has been limited. Most of these studies focus on the effectiveness of the drugs to reduce neuropsychiatric symptoms (Hindmarch et al.,
<xref rid="B29" ref-type="bibr">1992</xref>
; Parkinson Study Group,
<xref rid="B55" ref-type="bibr">1993</xref>
; Elmer et al.,
<xref rid="B16" ref-type="bibr">2006</xref>
). MAO-B inhibitors such as moclobemide, tranylcypromine, seligiline, and rasagiline (taken alone or in combination with other antidepressants) have been found to be useful in treating depression and anxiety in PD (Steur and Ballering,
<xref rid="B69" ref-type="bibr">1997</xref>
; Fahn and Chouinard,
<xref rid="B18" ref-type="bibr">1998</xref>
; Nayak and Henchcliffe,
<xref rid="B48" ref-type="bibr">2008</xref>
; Korchounov et al.,
<xref rid="B39" ref-type="bibr">2012</xref>
).</p>
<p>Due to its amphetamine-like derivatives, MAO-B Inhibitors have been suggested to improve cognitive performance in cognitively-impaired rats and other subjects (Yasar et al.,
<xref rid="B82" ref-type="bibr">1996</xref>
). Studies conducted on mouse models with derivatives of MAO Inhibitors have shown neuroprotective effects that additionally lend support to the hypothesis of the potential of MAO inhibitors in affecting cognitive, behavioral and emotional measures in patients with PD (Youdim,
<xref rid="B83" ref-type="bibr">2006</xref>
,
<xref rid="B84" ref-type="bibr">2013</xref>
; Kupershmidt et al.,
<xref rid="B40" ref-type="bibr">2012</xref>
). Further, Nickel et al. (
<xref rid="B49" ref-type="bibr">1990</xref>
) have shown that in rats, l-deprenyl and l-amphetamine (metabolites of MAOC-I, such as selegiline) increase EEG theta rhythms, indicating that the drug has facilitory effects on learning and memory.</p>
<p>The purpose of this present study is to examine the combined effects of MAO-B inhibitors and levodopa vs. monotherapy involving either DA agonists or levodopa on the motor, psychiatric, and cognitive processes in patients with PD. For this we designed an exploratory study where we recruited three groups of subjects: healthy controls, PD patients on MAO-I and levodopa, and PD patients on levodopa or DA agonists only. All groups were tested on various cognitive, neuropsychological, and affective processes, as described below.</p>

<title>Subjects</title>
<p>The study was approved by the local medical ethics committee, and informed consent was obtained from all subjects, in compliance with research standards for human research at Ain Shams and Cairo Universities. All subjects were recruited from the clinics associated with the Institute of Psychiatry, Ain Shams University as well as Cairo University. The patients diagnosed by a neurologist as having idiopathic PD according to UK Brain Bank diagnostic criteria for PD and they were in three different treatment regimes such as: (1) a monotherapy of levodopa; (2) monotherapy of DA agonists; and (3) combined therapy of levodopa and MAO- I (selegiline or rasagiline). PD patients were assigned different medications to manage their symptoms (tremor, akinesia, gait disturbance, and postural instability). Most patients were initially prescribed levodopa. If levodopa did not manage the symptoms (e.g., based on patients’ distress or caregiver’s observations), they were given MAO-I in addition to it. Some patients were taken off levodopa and assigned DA agonists to manage their symptoms.</p>
<p>We tested healthy controls, PD patients on levodopa and MAO-I (selegiline or rasagiline), and PD patients on monotherapy (levodopa or DA agonists only), using a between-subject design (see Table
<xref ref-type="table" rid="T1">1</xref>
). Among PD patients on monotherapy, 35 subjects were on levodopa while 4 subjects were on DA agonists only (Pramipexole and requip). Among 37 PD patients on levodopa and MAO-I, 19 patients were on selegiline and levodopa and were 18 patients on rasagiline and levodopa. In neurological and clinical practice, the dosage of each selegiline and rasagiline is different. Most of our patients were on daily dose of selegiline of 10 mg (except one patient was on 20 mg daily dose); other patients were on daily dose of either 0.5 or 1 mg of rasagiline. As in our prior studies (Moustafa et al.,
<xref rid="B44" ref-type="bibr">2008a</xref>
,
<xref rid="B45" ref-type="bibr">b</xref>
; Piray et al.,
<xref rid="B58" ref-type="bibr">2014</xref>
), most of our healthy control subjects were spouses of patients, who tended to be fairly well matched demographically. Other healthy control subjects were recruited from the community. The total testing time took approximately 105–120 min for healthy controls, and 115–135 min for PD patients (over two sessions of testing).</p>

<p>Each patient’s disease severity was measured using the Hoehn and Yahr stages (Hoehn and Yahr,
<xref rid="B31" ref-type="bibr">1967</xref>
) and the Unified Parkinson’s Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS).The severity of freezing of gait episodes was measured using the Freezing of Gait Questionnaire (FOGQ; Giladi et al.,
<xref rid="B21" ref-type="bibr">2000</xref>
) and The National Adult Reading Test was used to measure the premorbid intellectual functioning (predicted intelligence quotient (IQ); Bright et al.,
<xref rid="B5" ref-type="bibr">2002</xref>
).</p>
<p>All subjects were screened for intact general cognitive function and absence of dementia with the Mini-Mental Status Exam (MMSE; Folstein et al.,
<xref rid="B86" ref-type="bibr">1975</xref>
) and were required to obtain a score of at least 26 to be considered for the study. Patients who were on combined levodopa and DA agonist therapy, cholinergic, or serotonergic medications were excluded. Altogether, nine subjects were excluded based on these criteria. In addition, two subjects did not learn one of the learning tasks, so their data was not included in the statistical analysis. Subjects who were on multiple levodopa and DA agonists were also excluded from further testing. The final study sample consisted of 43 healthy controls, 37 PD patients on MAO-I and levodopa, and 39 PD patients on monotherapy, which is either levodopa or DA agonists only (see Table
<xref ref-type="table" rid="T1">1</xref>
). Levodopa equivalent daily dose (LEDD) was calculated as in prior studies (Hobson et al.,
<xref rid="B30" ref-type="bibr">2005</xref>
; Ecker et al.,
<xref rid="B15" ref-type="bibr">2009</xref>
; Weintraub et al.,
<xref rid="B80" ref-type="bibr">2010</xref>
; Moustafa et al.,
<xref rid="B43" ref-type="bibr">2013</xref>
).</p>
<p>The motor symptoms of the selected patients varied. Therefore to avoid this factor confounding the results, we categorized the subjects into tremor-predominant and akinetic-rigid subtypes, using their scores on the UPDRS and included the motor symptoms as an independent variable in the analysis. Specifically, a ratio was computed based on the UPDRS part III tremor score (average for items 20 and 21) and the mean UPDRS akinetic/rigid score (average for items 22–27 and 31). A ratio of >1.0 was considered tremor-dominant, <0.80 akinetic-rigid and 0.80–1.0 mixed. Subjects with mixed rigidity-akinesia and tremor (for similar methods used to subtype patients, see Jankovic et al.,
<xref rid="B32" ref-type="bibr">1990</xref>
; Vakil and Herishanu-Naaman,
<xref rid="B75" ref-type="bibr">1998</xref>
; Poletti et al.,
<xref rid="B59" ref-type="bibr">2012</xref>
) were excluded from the study.</p>
<p>One-way ANOVA was used to compare demographic and neuropsychological measures between the PD patients on MAO-I and levodopa, PD patients on monotherapy, and healthy control subjects. Chi square statistic was used to compare the gender ratio and the PD type (akinesia vs. tremor-dominant), between the medicated PD patients, unmedicated PD patients, and healthy controls groups (Table
<xref ref-type="table" rid="T1">1</xref>
). There was no significant difference between the groups on any of the demographic or motor measures. Although statistically nonsignificant, patients on MAO-I and levodopa had lesser motor dysfunction (as measured by UPDRS) and gait abnormalities (as measured by FOGQ) than the patients who was on a monotherapy of levodopa (Table
<xref ref-type="table" rid="T1">1</xref>
).</p>

<title>Behavioral tasks and scales</title>
<p>All subjects performed two learning tasks in a counterbalanced order. All tasks were administered on a PC laptop computer.</p>
<sec id="s2-2-1">
<title>Probabilistic learning task</title>
<p>Subjects were administered a computer-based probabilistic learning task. On each trial, subjects viewed one of six stimuli, and were instructed to make a right or left button-press (e.g., response X or Y). The feedback was probabilistic. So, a correct response results in either gaining points or no feedback with 20 and 80% probability, respectively. An incorrect response results in gaining points or no feedback with 80 and 20% probability, respectively. The correct response (X or Y) varies across stimuli, and the task had 120 trials.</p>
</sec>
<sec id="s2-2-2">
<title>Deterministic learning task</title>

<p>This test of verbal learning and memory involves the oral presentation of a 16 word list and immediate recall of the same over five trials. Free recall of the words was assessed again after a delay of approximately 20 min. Afterwards, cued recall is tested by offering the names of the four semantic categories to guide memory retrieval, and yes–no recognition is assessed by embedding the 16 targets among 28 distractors.</p>

Pseudorandom sequences of single consonants were presented, and subjects responded to each stimulus, pressing one button to targets and another to no targets. Most subjects did not learn the three-back condition, so we do not analyze it any further in the study here, and focus on group differences and medication effects on the two-back task.</p>

<p>Between-subject differences were examined using unstructured covariance matrices which do not make any strong assumptions about the variance and correlation of the data unlike structured covariances. Where indicated, we tested for specific planned contrasts. In these contrasts, the number of degrees of freedom reflects the entire sample, and not just the subjects involved in the particular contrast, because the mixed procedure analyses between-subject effects, and controls for other variables of interest that apply across all subjects. This procedure uses all of the data to provide a more stable estimate of the error term.

<title>Discussion</title>
<p>Our results show MAO-B inhibitors as an adjunct to levodopa provide a more enhancing effect than the use of monotherapy (levodopa or DA agonists alone) on most cognitive, affective and quality of life measures used in our study. Below, we discuss the effects of MAO-B inhibitors as an adjunct to levodopa on neuropsychiatric and cognitive measures.</p>
<sec id="s4-1">
<title>Effects of MAO-B inhibitors on cognitive measures</title>
<p>As mentioned above, there are very few studies that have investigated the effects of MAO-B inhibitors (taken alone or as an adjunct to levodopa) on neuropsychological and cognitive measures. For example, rasagiline has been used to treat mild cognitive impairment in PD (Goldman and Holden,
<xref rid="B22" ref-type="bibr">2014</xref>
). A small study involving seven patients on selegiline showed some improvement in memory and motor speed without progressive memory loss compared to those with dementia (Portin and Rinne,
<xref rid="B60" ref-type="bibr">1983</xref>
). Subsequently, Hietanen (
<xref rid="B28" ref-type="bibr">1991</xref>
) tested 18 patients with idiopathic PD on selegiline as monotherapy for 8 weeks in a double blind randomized placebo controlled trial, using a battery of neuropsychological tests. The study found some improvement in learning easy word associations, but did not find any significant specific cognitive effect. As part of a multicenter trial of Deprenyl and Tocopherol Antioxidative Therapy of Parkinsonism (DATATOP), 800 patients with early untreated PD were administered tests that measured memory, visuospatial, and frontal lobe functions (Kieburtz et al.,
<xref rid="B37" ref-type="bibr">1994</xref>
). The study did not find any significant effect of either deprenyl (selegiline) or tocopherol on cognitive test performance (Kieburtz et al.,
<xref rid="B37" ref-type="bibr">1994</xref>
). Further, in an 8-week study, it was found that selegiline did not have an effect on executive function using the Wisconsin Card Sorting Test (Dalrymple-Alford et al.,
<xref rid="B10" ref-type="bibr">1995</xref>
). Recently, Hanagasi et al. (
<xref rid="B25" ref-type="bibr">2011</xref>
) found that compared to placebo, the MAO-B inhibitor rasagiline has a better effect on attention and executive function in nondemented PD patients. In this double blind placebo controlled multicenter trial of 48 non-demented patients with PD and cognitive impairment, significant improvement was noticed in the rasagiline group on scores of digit span backward, verbal fluency, semantic fluency, Stroop, and attentional measures (Hanagasi et al.,
<xref rid="B25" ref-type="bibr">2011</xref>
).</p>
<p>Our results extend these findings by showing that MAO-B inhibitors as an adjunct to levodopa have a better effect on cognitive function (including probabilistic learning, forward and backward digit span,
<italic>n</italic>
-back, WCST-64, FAB, Trail Making B) in PD patients than levodopa or DA agonists monotherapy. Unlike the Hanagasi et al. study, the present study employed computerized cognitive tasks to assess learning in PD patients. Our data show that patients who had MAO-B inhibitors as adjunct to levodopa had better probabilistic but not deterministic learning. Our results suggest that learning impairment is exacerbated when the learning task involves uncertain feedback and response conflict, as in the probabilistic, but not deterministic, learning task. This interpretation is also in agreement with prior research showing that PD patients show impairments in conflict-based decision making tasks (Farooqui et al.,
<xref rid="B19" ref-type="bibr">2011</xref>
; Vandenbossche et al.,
<xref rid="B76" ref-type="bibr">2012</xref>
). This also points to the finding that probabilistic learning has a better potential to reveal differences in drug effects than deterministic learning tasks.</p>

). In our study, we found that PD patients who were on MAO-I and levodopa have lower BDI scores than patients on levodopa or DA agonists alone, suggesting a beneficial effect of MAO inhibitors on depression. Although not statistically significant, we found that PD patients on MAO-I and levodopa have lower scores on anxiety measure (as used by the Beck anxiety Inventory questionnaire), when compared to patients on monotherapy.</p>
<p>Interestingly, we also found that PD patients who were on MAO-I and levodopa have lower apathy and higher quality of life scores than patients on levodopa or DA agonists alone, suggesting a beneficial effect of MAO inhibitors on these measures.</p>

<title>Interaction between motor subtype in PD and medication regime</title>
<p>We also found an interaction effect in the motor subtype, medication and cognitive functions. Better cognitive functions were seen more in patients with severe akinesia, in comparison to patients with severe tremor. Our results extend prior studies showing relationships between motor and cognitive measures in PD (Riggeal et al.,
<xref rid="B64" ref-type="bibr">2007</xref>
; Colman et al.,
<xref rid="B9" ref-type="bibr">2009</xref>
; Wylie et al.,
<xref rid="B81" ref-type="bibr">2012</xref>
; Smulders et al.,
<xref rid="B68" ref-type="bibr">2013</xref>
), and further show that the effects of MAO-I on neuropsychological, affective, and quality of life measures in PD depends on the subtypes of PD.</p>
<p>Our results are also in line with prior studies showing that PD patients with tremor are usually less cognitively impaired than PD patients with akinesia or gait dysfunction (Vakil and Herishanu-Naaman,
<xref rid="B75" ref-type="bibr">1998</xref>
; Burn et al.,
<xref rid="B6" ref-type="bibr">2006</xref>
; Lyros et al.,
<xref rid="B41" ref-type="bibr">2008</xref>
; Oh et al.,
<xref rid="B52" ref-type="bibr">2009</xref>
; Domellof et al.,
<xref rid="B13" ref-type="bibr">2011</xref>
). In addition, prior studies have suggested that akinesia in PD patients is related to basal ganglia dysfunction (Kassubek et al.,
<xref rid="B36" ref-type="bibr">2002</xref>
; Probst-Cousin et al.,
<xref rid="B61" ref-type="bibr">2003</xref>
; Weinberger et al.,
<xref rid="B79" ref-type="bibr">2009</xref>
; Zaidel et al.,
<xref rid="B85" ref-type="bibr">2009</xref>
; Mure et al.,
<xref rid="B46" ref-type="bibr">2011</xref>
). It is possible that in PD patients with severe akinesia, the combined therapy of MAO inhibitors and levodopa has a more ameliorative effect on basal ganglia dysfunction than levodopa alone. We hypothesize that this effect can perhaps be due to findings that tremor in PD is related to damage to brain areas such as the cerebellum, while akinesia has been consistently seen to be related to basal ganglia dysfunction (Mure et al.,
<xref rid="B46" ref-type="bibr">2011</xref>
). Further, it is possible that MAO-B inhibitors ameliorate the function of the basal ganglia and DA and thus ameliorate impairment in PD patients with akinesia that is patients with more cognitive damage get better effects from treatment.</p>
</sec>
<sec id="s4-4">
<title>Continuous dopaminergic stimulation theory and bioavailability of monoamines</title>
<p>The beneficial effects of MAO-I can be due to the Continuous Dopaminergic Stimulation (CDS) of the basal ganglia and/or an increase in the bioavailability of monoamines. The CDS theory posits that sufficient dopaminergic stimulation of the basal ganglia (and particularly the striatum) reduces the occurrence of motor complications (such as wearing-off phenomenon) and dyskinesia (Nyholm,
<xref rid="B50" ref-type="bibr">2007</xref>
; Silverdale,
<xref rid="B67" ref-type="bibr">2007</xref>
). A multitude of studies have shown that these motor complications are associated with the administration of levodopa medications, and that combined therapies (levodopa with DA agonists, COMT inhibitors, or MAO inhibitors) can reduce these motor fluctuations (Jankovic and Stacy,
<xref rid="B33" ref-type="bibr">2007</xref>
; Stocchi et al.,
<xref rid="B70" ref-type="bibr">2008</xref>
).</p>
<p>Alternatively, many studies have shown that MAO-I can increase the levels of many monoamines including DA, serotonin, and norepinephrine (Riederer and Laux,
<xref rid="B63" ref-type="bibr">2011</xref>
). Most of these monoamines are known to impact cognitive and psychiatric measures in various patient populations, and thus the beneficial effects of MAO-I on our patients could be due to an increase of monoamine levels in the brain (Hamon and Blier,
<xref rid="B24" ref-type="bibr">2013</xref>
).</p>
<p>Our results extend these findings, and show that the beneficiary effects of levodopa and MAO-I can also be observed in cognitive, affective and quality of life measures. It is possible that MAO-I and levodopa enhance DA and other monoamine neurotransmission and thus provide a continuous stimulation of the basal ganglia, which in turn, ameliorate neuropsychological, affective and quality of life dysfunction in PD patients. None of our patients were on COMT inhibitors, but future studies should evaluate whether COMT inhibitors (taken alone or in combination with levodopa) also ameliorate neuropsychiatric and neuropsychological function in PD patients, in comparison to monotherapy.</p>
</sec>
<sec id="s4-5">
<title>Limitations</title>
<p>Our study is not without limitations. Our samples included a small number of subjects to compare PD patients on levodopa to patients on DA agonists alone. There are very few number of PD patients on DA agonists (either alone or in combination with other medications). A future study recruiting patients on DA agonists and/or MAO-B inhibitors can help understand its effects on motor, psychiatric, and cognitive processes in comparison to levodopa and/or MAO-B inhibitors. Similarly, we did not have a large sample of PD patients to compare differential effects of selegiline vs. rasagiline on neurocognitive and neuropsychiatric measures. Further, a longitudinal study is needed to confirm findings that the administration of MAO-I and levodopa better ameliorate and cognitive abnormalities than the administration of levodopa alone.</p>
<p>Overall, our results show that combination therapy of MAO inhibitors and levodopa are associated with better neuropsychological, cognitive, and affective function in PD patients than levodopa or DA agonists alone. To our knowledge, this is the first study to investigate the effects of MAO inhibitors on cognitive as well as classical neuropsychological tests in PD patients using computerized learning tests.</p>
