Abstract: Parkinson's disease (PD) is marked by motor symptoms and often accompanied by mild cognitive impairment (PD-MCI), affecting up to 50% of patients and preceding PD dementia (PDD). Genetic factors may influence this progression, yet the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. This study investigated genetic factors influencing the progression from PD-MCI to PDD using polygenic risk scores (PRS). A genome-wide association study (GWAS) was conducted using data from the LANDSCAPE study. Multivariable Cox regression, Kaplan-Meier survival analysis, and concordance statistics assessed the relationship between PRS and PDD progression. No significant association was found between PD PRS and the risk of developing PDD.
