Abstract: Parkinson's disease (PD) is associated with various non-motor symptoms, including cognitive deterioration.Here, we used data from the DEMPARK/LANDSCAPE cohort to describe the association between progression of cognitive profiles and the PD motor phenotypes: postural instability and gait disorder (PIGD), tremor-dominant (TR-D), and not-determined (ND).Demographic, clinical, and neuropsychological six-year longitudinal data of 711 PD-patients were included (age: M = 67.57; 67.4% males). We computed z-transformed composite scores for a priori defined cognitive domains. Analyses were controlled for age, gender, education, and disease duration. To minimize missing data and drop-outs, three-year follow-up data of 442 PD-patients was assessed with regard to the specific role of motor phenotype on cognitive decline using linear mixed modelling (age: M = 66.10; 68.6% males).Our study showed that in the course of the disease motor symptoms increased while MMSE and PANDA remained stable in all subgroups. After three-year follow-up, significant decline of overall cognitive performance for PIGD-patients were present and we found differences for motor phenotypes in attention (β= -0.08, SE = 0.003, p < 0.006) and memory functions showing that PIGD-patients deteriorate per months by -0.006 compared to the ND-group (SE = 0.003, p = 0.046). Furthermore, PIGD-patients experienced more often difficulties in daily living.Over a period of three years, we identified distinct neuropsychological progression patterns with respect to different PD motor phenotypes, with early executive deficits yielding to a more amnestic profile in the later course. Here, in particular PIGD-patients worsened over time compared to TR-D and ND-patients, highlighting the greater risk of dementia for this motor phenotype.
