Description:
Across neurodegenerative diseases, such as Parkinson's disease (PD) and Alzheimer's disease (AD), a disparity between the clinical expression and the extent of pathophysiological burden has been observed. This has fueled the establishment of resilience concepts such as cognitive reserve (CR) and brain reserve (BR) at the beginning of this millennium.1 Since the introduction of these concepts, a plethora of studies have aimed at identifying mechanisms predominantly associated with the mitigation of cognitive decline despite neurodegenerative changes associated with multiple sclerosis, dementia, or healthy aging (ie, resilience).2, 3 In comparison, resilience mechanisms in PD have received far less attention even though they seem equally important given the clinical heterogeneity and long prodromal phase. With the emerging concept of motor reserve (MR), new avenues have opened up focusing on potential neuronal processes providing resilience (ie, relative preservation of motor function) in PD, which can potentially be harnessed for interventional therapies. Importantly, this requires a common understanding of the principles of how to assess resilience in observational studies and how to quantify its underlying mechanisms. Given the head start in identifying pitfalls and precisely delineating the concept of resilience in the AD field, the opportunity lies at hand to benefit from this knowledge for investigations of MR in PD.
