| Popis: | Fatigue is a common yet poorly understood and underresearched nonmotor symptom in Parkinson’s disease. Although fatigue is recognized to significantly affect health-related quality of life, it remains underrecognised and empirically treated. In this paper, the prevalence of fatigue as measured by a validated visual analogue scale and the Parkinson’s disease nonmotor symptoms scale (PDNMSS) was correlated with other motor and nonmotor comorbidities. In a cohort of patients from a range of disease stages, occurrence of fatigue correlated closely with more advanced Parkinson’s disease, as well as with depression, anxiety, and sleep disorders, hinting at a common underlying basis. |
