Prevalence, Clinical Manifestations, Etiology, and Treatment of Depression in Parkinson's Disease

James R. Slaughter, Kathleen A. Slaughter, Dave Nichols, Stacey E. Holmes, Matthew P. Martens·2001·Journal of Neuropsychiatry

Abstract

To determine the extent to which depression complicates Parkinson's disease (PD), the authors analyzed the literature on depression in PD in order to report on its prevalence, clinical manifestations, and treatment. By means of MEDLINE literature searches, the analysis focused on 45 PD depression studies conducted from 1922 through 1998. The results indicate that the prevalence of depression is 31% for all PD patients. The clinical manifestations of PD depression include apathy, psychomotor retardation, memory impairment, pessimism, irrationality, and suicidal ideation without suicidal behavior. PD depression is effectively treated with a variety of antidepressants, most commonly at present the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors. Anecdotal evidence supports the use of sertraline to treat PD depression.

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.
