Prevalence and risk factors of peripheral neuropathy in parkinson & #39;s disease
Conclusions: In our cohort, majority of the patients were in early-stage PD and around one-fifth and one-third of patients suffer from large and small fiber polyneuropathy, respectively. Large and small fiber neuropathy in PD is mainly associated with duration of disease, levodopa cumulative dose, and H and Y score.
