The severity progression of non-motor symptoms in Parkinson’s disease: a 6-year longitudinal study in Taiwanese patients

Abstract Nonmotor symptoms (NMSs) cause major burden in patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD). Previous NMSs progression studies mostly focused on the prevalence. We conducted a longitudinal study to identify the progression pattern by the severity. PD patients recruited from the outpatient clinics...
