Motor symptoms in Parkinson's disease: A unified framework [PDF]
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is characterized by a range of motor symptoms. Besides the cardinal symptoms (akinesia and bradykinesia, tremor and rigidity), PD patients show additional motor deficits, including: gait disturbance, impaired handwriting, grip ...

The Relations Between Non-motor Symptoms and Motor Symptoms in Parkinson Disease
The aim of this study was to evaluate the correlation between motor and non-motor symptoms in patients diagnosed with Parkinson. We included in our study 72 patients diagnosed with Parkinson disease:28 female and 44 males. Each patient was evaluated using Non-motor Symptoms Questionnaire for Parkinson Disease, for motor status we used Unified ...

Non-Motor Symptoms in Patients Suffering from Motor Neuron Diseases [PDF]
The recently postulated "disease spreading hypothesis" has gained much attention, especially for Parkinson's disease (PD). The various non-motor symptoms (NMS) in neurodegenerative diseases would be much better explained by this hypothesis than by the degeneration of disease-specific cell populations.

Sustained attention training reduces spatial bias in Parkinson’s disease: a pilot case series [PDF]
Individuals with Parkinson’s disease (PD) commonly demonstrate lateralized spatial biases, which affect daily functioning. Those with PD with initial motor symptoms on the left body side (LPD) have reduced leftward attention, whereas PD with initial ...
