To evaluate mentalising performance on the 'Reading the Mind in the Eyes' test across various neurodegenerative conditions in matched-control studies published since 2001.
Systematic review and meta-analysis of matched-control studies registered in PROSPERO (CRD42020182874).
Included 22 papers evaluating N = 800 participants with neurodegenerative conditions (Alzheimer's disease, n = 31; Parkinson's disease, n = 221; Lewy body dementia, n = 33; motor neuron disease, n = 218; Huntington's disease, n = 80; multiple sclerosis, n = 217) and N = 601 matched typical controls.
Mentalising deficits measured by the Reading the Mind in the Eyes test were consistently observed across all evaluated neurodegenerative conditions relative to matched controls.
Impairments in social cognitive performance emerged across both early and late disease stages.

Implication

Systematic review and meta-analysis reveals consistent mentalising deficits in neurodegenerative conditions, indicating widespread social cognitive impairment across disease stages.
