Asymmetric Cholinergic Basal Forebrain Atrophy Marks Freezing of Gait in Parkinson's Disease

European Journal of Neuroscience, Volume 63, Issue 6, March 2026.
Participants with freezing of gait (FoG) showed selectively reduced cholinergic basal forebrain volume in the right Ch4p subregion, even after accounting for disease severity, sex, levodopa equivalent dose and most affected side. This association between Ch4p volume and FoG status was not mediated by global cognitive performance (MoCA score).
