β¦ Synopsis
Parkinson's disease (PD) is most often considered a disorder of movement. Whereas bradykinesia, rigidity, tremor, and postural instability result in disability, nonmotor complications in PD may be of equal or greater significance in some patients. This review will discuss many of the nonmotor complications in PD, including cognitive, autonomic, sleep, and sensory difficulties that may occur.

## Abstract Background: In patients with Parkinson's disease (PD), asymmetric motor signs provide an interesting model to evaluate whether asymmetric nigrostriatal degeneration can affect neuropsychological function and other nonmotor symptoms (NMS). This study was designed to evaluate the predomin
## Abstract Nonmotor symptoms (NMS) are very common in Parkinson's disease (PD) and may result in significant disability. The increased focus on these important clinical features represents a major advance in the care of PD patients. In this article, we provide an overview of recent developments in
## Abstract Many patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) have clinically significant anxiety, depression, fatigue, sleep disturbance, or sensory symptoms. The comorbidity of these nonmotor symptoms and their relationship to PD severity has not been extensively evaluated. Ninetyβ nine nondemented PD
## Abstract ## Background: Nonmotor symptoms in Parkinson's disease are frequent and affect healthβrelated quality of life of patients. The severity and domains of nonmotor symptoms involved in Parkinson's disease and normal aging have not been compared before. ## Methods: We performed a prospec
## Abstract The aim of this study was to assess the outcome of nonmotor fluctuations (NMF) after chronic Subthalamic nucleus (STN) Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) in Parkinson's disease(PD). Chronic stimulation of the STN has proved to be an effective treatment for advanced PD with motor complications
