CHI3L1 and Parkinson disease: MSA patients had higher CSF t-tau (SMD = 0.41, 95% CI: 0.10 to 0.72) and YKL-40 (SMD = 0.63, 95% CI 0.12 to1.15) as well as DJ-1 (SMD = 1.05, 95% CI 0.67 to 1.42) levels than PD patients, while CSF p-tau (SMD = −0.17, 95% CI, -0.31 to -0.02) and Aβ-42 (SMD = −0.33, 95% CI, -0.55 to -0.12) levels in MSA patients were lower than those in PD patients.
