What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. MDS-Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (MDS-UPDRS) Part 3

    Part 3 of this scale assesses motor performance in 33 items. Each item is scored on a scale of 0 (normal) to 4 (severe), with a total score range of 0 to 132, and higher scores mean the patient's situation is worse.

    Time frame: 0, 3, 12, 15, 24 months

  2. Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAM-D)

    This scale assesses non-motor symptoms in 17 items, the total scale value is 50 (Scores 0 to 7 mean normal, 8 to 13 mean mild depression, 14 to 18 mean moderate depression, 19 to 22 mean severe depression, and ≥23 mean very severe depression).

    Time frame: 0, 3, 12, 15, 24 months

  3. Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAM-A)

    This scale assesses non-motor symptoms in 14 items. Each item is scored on a scale of 0 (not present) to 4 (severe), with a total score range of 0-56, where ≤17 indicates mild anxiety severity, 18-24 indicate mild to moderate anxiety severity, 25-30 indicate moderate to severe anxiety severity, \>30 indicate severe anxiety.
