    Sammanfattning : Olfactory loss is a common non-motor symptom of Parkinson’s disease (PD), often preceding the cardinal motor symptoms of the disease. The aim of this thesis was to: (a) evaluate whether olfactory examination can increase diagnostic accuracy, and (b) study the structural and functional neural basis of olfactory dysfunction in PD with different applications of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI).

  4. 3. Daytime sleepiness in Parkinson's disease in relation to other symptoms, disease progression and daily life

    Författare :Arja Vehkala Höglund; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this doctoral thesis is to explore daytime sleepiness (DS) in Parkinson’s disease (PD). The Papers will evaluate how DS is connected to both motor and non-motor symptoms in PD, changes in DS over time, and the consequences of DS for the daily life of people with PD. LÄS MER
