The objective of this study was to evaluate relationships between quantitative EEG (qEEG) changes and cognitive disturbance (mild impairment or dementia) the motor stage in Parkinson's disease (PD). Thirty-two PD patients (age = 67.2 +/- 10.0) 26 normal subjects 68.4 4.7) were assessed using a neurological evaluation, modified Hoehn Yahr (HY) scale for PD, Portuguese version CERAD neuropsychological battery (consortium establish registry Alzheimer's disease) incorporating Mini-mental Status...
Age and sex are known risk factors for Parkinson's Disease (PD), but it remains controversial if there differences in the diagnosis latency. The objective of this study was to examine these Latin America. American Research Consortium on Genetics PD (LARGE-PD) includes patients from countries across America who were diagnosed using UK Brain Bank criteria. Ages at onset (AAO; N = 2,792), (AAD; 1,416), calculated latency (N 1,416) extracted LARGE-PD database compared both males females overall,...
