Background Progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) is a clinically heterogeneous neurodegenerative disorder with unclear pathophysiology. Objective This study aimed to uncover clinically relevant metabolic networks derived from 18 F‐fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) in PSP. Methods FDG and dopaminergic transporter PET data from 72 PSP patients and 70 healthy controls were analyzed, with an independent test set of 24 PSP patients. All patients underwent comprehensive neuropsychiatric assessments. Using spatial independent component analysis, the study identified independent metabolic networks and examined their correlations with clinical features and striatal dopaminergic binding. Results Three distinct metabolic networks were identified in PSP: The first network demonstrated hypometabolism in dorsomedial thalamus (dmT), medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) and midbrain, termed the dmT‐mPFC network, negatively correlating with disease severity, functional disability and duration, and associating with gait/midline disturbances and ocular dysfunction. The second network displayed posterior cingulate cortex (PCC) and lateral prefrontal hypometabolism (LPFC), named the PCC‐LPFC network, linking to disease severity, cognitive impairment, and parkinsonism. The third network exhibited preserved putamen metabolism with ventrolateral thalamus and sensorimotor cortex hypermetabolism, inversely relating to disease duration. Both dmT‐mPFC and PCC‐LPFC networks strongly correlated with striatal dopaminergic degeneration. The test set showed strong associations between cognitive impairment and the PCC–LPFC network, and between functional disability and the dmT–mPFC network, along with potential trends linking disease severity to these networks. Conclusion The robust clinical and dopaminergic‐related independent metabolic networks offer novel insights into disease pathophysiology, whereas their qualitative weighting offers a potential tool for staging disease severity. © 2025 International Parkinson and Movement Disorder Society.

BACKGROUNDTimely and accurate diagnosis of progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) remains challenging.OBJECTIVETo assess diagnostic certainty and progression biomarkers in the PSP spectrum from "suggestive of" (so-PSP) category as proxy of early disease, to definite (neuropathologically confirmed) cases.METHODSMulticenter, prospective, longitudinal study of 131 participants (so-PSP, n = 23; definite, n = 5) with oculometric (n = 47) and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarkers (n = 75), compared with control (n = 18) and Parkinson's disease (PD) subjects (n = 12).RESULTSAnti-saccade velocities were significantly reduced in so-PSP versus PD and controls. CSF α-synuclein seed amplification assay (asyn-SAA) was positive in 20% of PSP cases (vs. 100% PD and 0% controls). Longitudinally (median of 1.3 years), all probable/possible-PSP cases retained their diagnosis regardless of CSF asyn-SAA result. In so-PSP, worse saccades' variables and negative/low-fluorescence-positive asyn-SAA at baseline related to longitudinal diagnosis reinforcement. Clinical scales and neurofilament light chain (NfL) predicted shorter survival.CONCLUSIONSQuantitative oculometry and negative/low-fluorescence-positive CSF asyn-SAA predict diagnostic validation in so-PSP. In probable/possible-PSP, positive CSF asyn-SAA may suggest copathology, although confirmation requires larger pathological studies. © 2025 International Parkinson and Movement Disorder Society.

BACKGROUNDPredicting initiation of dopaminergic therapy in early Parkinson's disease (PD) is important for clinical management and trial design. Prior cross-sectional work identified a six-item patient-reported subset from the Movement Disorder Society-sponsored revision of the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (MDS-UPDRS) Parts IB + II, but its longitudinal utility is unknown.OBJECTIVESTo test whether modeling longitudinal symptom trajectories improves prediction of dopaminergic therapy initiation beyond baseline-only models, and to identify an abbreviated patient-reported subset with stable prognostic value and utility for trial stratification.METHODSData were harmonized from 1787 untreated early PD patients across six multicenter studies. All 20 MDS-UPDRS Parts IB + II items were analyzed using a longitudinal item response theory model. Items were ranked by discrimination and information functions, and cumulative subsets evaluated in Cox models with time-dependent covariates, adjusted for age, sex, disease duration, and Hoehn and Yahr stage. Predictive accuracy was quantified by concordance index (C-index) for full follow-up and truncation at 1 and 2 years. Risk stratification was assessed based on baseline abbreviated subset scores using Kaplan-Meier analyses.RESULTSAn 11-item model consistently outperformed the full 20-item scale (C-index 0.609 vs. 0.597, P < 0.001 with full follow-up; 0.621 vs. 0.599, P < 0.001 at 1 year; 0.615 vs. 0.602, P < 0.001 at 2 years). Longitudinal updates improved discrimination over baseline-only models (eg, 0.609 vs. 0.594 for full follow-up). Higher baseline 11-item scores were strongly associated with earlier therapy initiation.CONCLUSIONSLongitudinal symptom modeling improves prediction of therapy initiation in early PD. An abbreviated 11-item patient-reported MDS-UPDRS provides stronger prognostic value than the full scale and supports trial stratification and clinical monitoring. © 2025 International Parkinson and Movement Disorder Society.

BACKGROUNDAllan-Herndon-Dudley syndrome (AHDS)/monocarboxylate transporter 8 (MCT8) deficiency is a rare X-linked encephalopathy caused by SLC16A2 variants, impairing thyroid hormone (TH) transport into the brain. This leads to early central nervous system (CNS) TH deficiency, affecting brain maturation. Dopaminergic circuit involvement is suggested by both pathophysiology and clinical features, reminiscent of infantile parkinsonism.OBJECTIVEThis study investigates dopamine metabolism and levodopa/carbidopa response in MCT8 patients.METHODSWe retrospectively and prospectively collected clinical, genetic, and neuroimaging data, performed cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biogenic amine analyses, and conducted neurological assessments before and after the levodopa trial (10 mg/kg/day).RESULTSTen patients exhibited developmental delay, spasticity, and infantile parkinsonism. CSF analysis showed reduced homovanillic acid in 3/10 patients, with 7/10 in the lowest quartile. Levodopa improved parkinsonism and reactivity in 7/10 patients.CONCLUSIONSOur findings confirm dopaminergic involvement in AHDS and show that levodopa/carbidopa effectively treats extrapyramidal symptoms. Further investigations could differentiate presynaptic and postsynaptic defects to optimize dopaminergic therapy. © 2025 The Author(s).
