Background: Dyskinesia is a troublesome complication of long-term dopaminergic medications in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients. Many factors are reported to be associated with dyskinesia in PD.
Objective: To investigate the association between sleep quality and dyskinesia in patients with PD.
Objective: We aim to report and evaluate the associations between serum sodium and chloride and dyskinesia in patients with Parkinson's disease. One hundred and two patients with Parkinson's disease were enrolled in this study.
Methods: Patients' serum electrolytes including sodium, calcium, potassium, magnesium, and chloride were measured.
Objective: Hyposmia is one of the earliest non-motor features of Parkinson's disease (PD) and can precede the onset of motor symptoms by years. Most of the current olfactory detection tests are targeted at Western populations. The exact relationship between hyposmia and cognitive impairment is unknown.

Methods: A total of 130 PD outpatients and inpatients of sleep center at our hospital were eligible for participation. According to Montreal cognitive assessment (MOCA), they were divided into cognitive normal group (MOCA ≥ 26) (n = 51) and cognitive impairment group (MOCA < 26) (n = 79).
Background And Objective: Sleep-disordered breathing is known to be associated with impairment in cognitive function. The aim of this study was to characterize neurocognitive impairment in a cohort of Chinese patients with varying severities of obstructive sleep apnoea hypopnoea syndrome (OSAHS), and to develop a sensitive instrument for routine screening of cognitive impairment.
Methods: Eligible patients (n = 394) were categorized into a primary snoring group, and mild, moderate and severe OSAHS groups, based on assessment of AHI.
Article Synopsis
- The study investigated excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) in 1,035 Chinese patients with varying severity of obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) using overnight polysomnography and the Epworth Sleepiness Scale.
- The research found that as OSAHS severity increased, so did the ESS scores, indicating higher levels of EDS, along with other factors like nocturnal hypoxemia and disrupted sleep structure.
- The analysis revealed strong correlations among EDS, body mass index (BMI), apnea-hypopnea index (AHI), and particularly the oxygen desaturation index (ODI), with ODI being the most significant predictor of EDS in these patients.
