Gastrointestinal dysfunction in Parkinson's disease

Pfeiffer, Ronald F.·2011·Parkinsonism & Related Disorders

Abstract

In recent years, an increasingly detailed picture of gastrointestinal dysfunction in the setting of Parkinson's disease has emerged. Abnormalities of function may occur at virtually all levels of the gastrointestinal tract. Weight loss, dental deterioration, salivary excess, dysphagia, gastroparesis, decreased bowel movement frequency, and anorectal dysfunction all may occur. The pathophysiologic basis for this dysfunction entails both central and enteric nervous system involvement.

  • Constipation is the most prominent gastrointestinal dysfunction in Parkinson's disease and might precede motor symptoms by over a decade.

    “Among them, constipation is the most prominent and it might precede motor symptoms by over a decade (Fasano et al., 2015;Pfeiffer, 2011).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
