Research paper: REM sleep behaviour disorder is associated with worse quality of life and other non-motor features in early Parkinsons disease

摘要

BackgroundConcomitant REM sleep behaviour disorder (RBD) is commonly observed in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). Although the brainstem structures responsible for the symptoms of RBD correspond to the premotor stages of PD, the association of RBD with motor and non-motor features in early PD remains unclear.
