Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a progressive, neurodegenerative movement disorder and the second most common neurodegenerative disorder in the United States.1 In 2020, approximately 930,000 people in the United States aged 45 years and older developed the disease, and this number is expected ...
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is classically defined as a movement disorder with key features including motor disturbances such as tremor, rigidity, akinesia and postural instability. Non-motor symptoms are also present, and can include disturbances in autonomic function, sleep, cognition, sensory ...
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a multifaceted neurodegenerative disease that progressively affects individuals’ mobility. In addition to the cumulative motor disability, a plethora of non-motor symptoms (NMS-PD) can be encountered at different stages of the disease. Some of these NMS-PD ...
