Abstract

We evaluated the risk factors for nursing home placement of patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) by matching 11 PD patients permanently admitted to nursing homes with two control PD patients remaining at home. Risk factors assessed were motor severity, presence of hallucinations/delusions, and presence of memory of problems. The only statistically significant risk factor was the presence of hallucinations/delusions. Motor severity and the presence of memory problems did not have an impact on nursing home placement. There was no risk factor synergy for hallucinations, motor disability, and mental impairment. Since all patients in this series who entered nursing homes remained there permanently, these data suggest that vigorous efforts to control hallucinations may be warranted to prevent nursing home placement.

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.
