  • Title: [Clinical subtypes of Parkinson disease].
    Author: Poewe W, Gerstenbrand F.
    Journal: Wien Med Wochenschr; 1986 Aug 31; 136(15-16):384-7. PubMed ID: 3788189.
    Abstract:
    Clinical findings in 196 patients with Parkinson's disease are reviewed and a subdivision of cases into an "equivalent" type (ART-type), akineto-rigid type (AR-type) and tremordominant type (T-type) of Parkinson's disease is introduced. Differences in the rate of progression and association with mental changes as well as in the predisposition for developing L-dopa induced dyskinesias have been observed between these subtypes of Parkinson's disease. The possible relation between tremordominant Parkinson's disease and essential tremor is also discussed.
