概要 INTRODUCTION: Levodopa-induced dyskinesia is a complication of levodopa therapy and negatively impacts the quality of life of patients. We aimed to elucidate white matter alterations in Parkinson's disease with levodopa-induced dyskinesia using advanced diffusion magnetic resonance imaging techniques. METHODS: The enrolled subjects included 26 clinically confirmed Parkinson's disease patients without levodopa-induced dyskinesia, 25 Parkinson's disease patients with levodopa-induced dyskinesia, and 23 healthy controls. Subjects were imaged using a 3-T magnetic resonance scanner. Diffusion tensor imaging, diffusion kurtosis imaging, and neurite orientation dispersion and density imaging findings were compared between groups with a group-wise whole brain approach and a region-of-interest analysis for each white matter tract. Additionally, logistic regression analysis was used to calculate odds ratios for levodopa-induced dyskinesia. RESULTS: Group-wise tract-based spatial statistical analysis revealed significant white matter differences in isotropic diffusion, complexity, or heterogeneity, and neurite density between healthy controls and Parkinson's disease patients without levodopa-induced dyskinesia and between patients with and without levodopa-induced dyskinesia. Region-of-interest analysis revealed similar alterations using a group-wise whole-brain approach in the external capsule, inferior fronto-occipital fasciculus, inferior longitudinal fasciculus, and uncinate fasciculus. These tracts had an odds ratio of approximately 2.3 for the presence of levodopa-induced dyskinesia. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings suggest that Parkinson's disease with levodopa-induced dyskinesia produces less white matter microstructural disruption, especially in temporal lobe fibers, than Parkinson's disease without levodopa-induced dyskinesia. These fibers has a more than 2-fold odds ratio for the presence of levodopa-induced dyskinesia and might be associated with the pathogenesis of the s
