Association Between Stroke and Parkinson ’s Disease: a Meta-analysis

In conclusion, our meta-analysis suggests that there is an association between stroke and PD. Sensitivity analysis was used to test the robustness of our results through the sequential removal of each one study at time, in order to investigate if a single st udy was driving the study results. These results indicate that PD and stroke may have a common pathogenesis and may share preventive treatment measures.
