Early-onset mild cognitive impairment in Parkinson’s disease: Altered corticopetal cholinergic network

Abstract Degeneration of the substantia innominata (SI) is significantly correlated with cognitive performance in Parkinson’s disease (PD). We examined functional and structural patterns of SI degeneration in drug-naïve PD patients according to the duration of parkinsonism before mild cognitive impa...
