Frequency of Wearing-Off Symptoms in Parkinson’s disease Fluctuators: An on/off evaluation
Objective: To determine if the frequency of wearing-off symptoms in Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients who report fluctuations differs from patients without fluctuations. Background: Wearing-off, the…Prevalence, impact, and factors associated with excessive buccal saliva in the COPARK database
Objective: To describe the prevalence of sialorrhea and drooling in Parkinson’s Disease (PD) patients of the COPARK study, to find factors associated to these conditions,…Temporal characterization of motor, gastrointestinal, and behavioral symptoms in a SNCA A53T transgenic mouse model of Parkinson’s disease
Objective: While multiple animal models of Parkinson’s disease (PD) have been developed with varying applicability to different aspects of the disorder, no single model effectively…Sleep disturbances in Vascular Parkinsonism (VP) and Parkinson’s Disease (PD) patients in early stages
Objective: Compare sleep disturbances between VP and PD patients. Background: Sleep disorders in PD patients are well recognized, ranging from nocturnal symptoms such as insomnia,…Early life stress offers a window into the relationship between depression and Parkinson’s disease: A 60-week study after maternal separation in rats

Objective: Aim of the study; to investigate if apomorphine might facilitate weaning from mechanical ventilation in parkinsonian patients. Background: Apomorphine is an effective treatment for PD…Association between essential tremor, constipation, and the risk of developing Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To evaluate the association between constipation and the risk of Parkinson’s disease (PD) in patients with a prior history of essential tremor (ET). Background:…RBD and autonomic dysfunction in newly diagnosed Parkinson’s disease patients
Objective: To determine whether newly diagnosed Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients with REM sleep behavior disorder (RBD) are more likely to have symptoms of autonomic dysfunction.…Prevalence of non-motor symptoms in Parkinson’s disease using the Movement Disorder Society-Non-Motor Rating Scale (MDS-NMS) and comparable scales
Objective: To analyze the frequency and differences in distribution by sex and disease severity of non-motor symptoms (NMS) in patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD) using…The non-declaration of musculoskeletal pain in Parkinson’s disease in patient-related outcome measures –The King’s experience
Objective: To determine the usefulness of patient related outcome (PRO) measures in highlighting non-declaration of pain, a challenging non-motor symptom (NMS) of Parkinson’s disease (PD).…
