The Impact of Fatigue on Sleep and Other Non-Motor Symptoms in Parkinson's Disease.

Unlabelled: Fatigue is a common non-motor symptom in Parkinson's disease (PD), but even so, it may still be underdiagnosed or misdiagnosed in current practice due to its non-specific manifestations. The aims of this study were to investigate the prevalence of fatigue in PD patients compared to healthy controls and to identify the main characteristics and associations of fatigue with other non-motor symptoms and the impact of fatigue on sleep disturbances in Parkinson's disease.

Materials And Methods: case-control study in which 131 PD patients and 131 age- and sex-matched controls were enrolled.

Diplopia in Movement Disorders: A Systematic Review of the Literature.

Introduction: Although the reported frequency of diplopia is between 10 to 40% of patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) and other movement disorders, it remains one of the most undiagnosed non-motor symptoms. Furthermore, it has a major impact on the quality of life of these patients. The aim of this study is to systematically review the literature regarding the frequency, causes, and implications of diplopia in movement disorders.
