Patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) are known to suffer from
motor symptoms of the disease, but they also experience non-motor
symptoms (NMS) that are often present before diagnosis or that
inevitably emerge with disease progression. The motor symptoms of
Parkinson's disease have been extensively researched, and effective
clinical tools for their assessment and treatment have been
developed and are readily available. In contrast, researchers have
only recently begun to focus on the NMS of Parkinson's Disease,
which are poorly recognized and inadequately treated by clinicians.
The NMS of PD have a significant impact on patient quality of life
and mortality and include neuropsychiatric, sleep-related,
autonomic, gastrointestinal, and sensory symptoms. While some NMS
can be improved with currently available treatments, others may be
more refractory and will require research into novel
(non-dopaminergic) drug therapies for the future. Edited by members
of the UK Parkinson's Disease Non-Motor Group (PD-NMG) and with
contributions from international experts, this new edition
summarizes the current understanding of NMS symptoms in Parkinson's
disease and points the way towards future research.
