Circadian rest-activity rhythms predict cognitive function in early Parkinson's disease independently of sleep [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Cognitive impairment is a common and debilitating symptom of Parkinson's disease (PD), and its etiology is likely multifactorial. One candidate mechanism is circadian disruption. Although there is evidence of circadian abnormalities in PD, no
