Progression of Nonmotor Symptoms in Parkinson's Disease by Sex and Motor Laterality

In conclusion, males experienced increased NMS burden in Parkinson's disease. Laterality of motor symptoms did not significantly influence NMS progression, except anxious mood. We analyzed NMS in a large cohort of PD patients, and these data are valuable to improve PD patients' quality of life by therapeutically alleviating nonmotor symptoms.PMID:33868631 | PMC:PMC8035033 | DOI:10.1155/2021/8898887
