## Abstract This study focused on the relationship between the asymmetry of initial motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease (PD) and premorbid handedness of patients. Structural equation modeling has been used for this purpose. The survey consisting of validated items measuring handedness and questio

## Abstract It is well known that many patients with Parkinson's disease experience neuropsychological decline. However, the nature and extent of mental status change varies widely, with some patients showing mild or no cognitive impairments and others exhibiting frank dementia. Research has shown
## Abstract ## Objective Patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) present with a variety of nonโmotor symptoms including sensory complaints and mood disturbances. In the current pilot study, we aimed to explore pain complaints and the association between mood and pain in PD. We hypothesized that pai
## Abstract Freezing of gait (FOG) is a disabling phenomenon common in patients with advanced Parkinson's disease (PD). The cause of FOG is unclear. The objective of this study was to explore a novel hypothesis stating that FOG is related to asymmetric motor performance. We compared PD patients tha
## Abstract Many studies have addressed practice effects in motor sequences in Parkinson's disease (PD). Most studied shortโterm practice and showed that treated patients with mildโtoโmoderate disease achieve normal or slightly abnormal improvement. Less attention has focused on practice effects af
