Background: Constipation is one of the most common non-motor symptoms in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD), which could manifest during the early stage of the disease. However, the etiology of constipation in PD remains largely unknown. Previous studies supported that gastrointestinal dysfunction may be associated with functional connectivity alterations in paraventricular hypothalamic nucleus (PVN).

Purpose: This study aimed to assess the association between motor and non-motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease (PD) and iron accumulation within the deep gray matter of the brain by Quantitative Susceptibility Mapping (QSM).
Methods: Fifty-six PD patients and twenty-nine healthy controls were recruited in this study. According to the Hoehn and Yahr (H-Y) stage score, PD patients were divided into early stage (H-Y ≤ 2) and advanced stage (H-Y > 2) groups.

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by motor and non-motor symptoms that profoundly impact patients' quality of life. While pharmacological therapies such as levodopa remain the mainstay of treatment, their long-term use is often limited by motor complications. Device-based interventions, including deep brain stimulation (DBS) and continuous dopaminergic infusions, have emerged as alternatives, promising sustained symptomatic control and reduced medication-related side effects.

Aim: Patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) present with both motor and non-motor symptoms, and understanding the interplay between these symptoms is crucial for individualized patient care. This study aims to investigate the relationship between motor features and non-motor symptoms in patients with de novo PD.
Methods: A total of 105 patients were analyzed, focusing on motor subtypes or subscores and their impact on cognition, depression, anxiety, fatigue, and dysautonomia.
