Symptom Analysis of Early Parkinson's Disease and its Correlation with High Sensitivity C-reactive Protein.

Le résumé fourni par la source

Parkinson's disease is a debilitating neurodegenerative disease for which there is no cure. It is characterized by bradykinesia, resting tremor, rigidity and postural instability, due to impairment of function of the basal ganglia which is involved in the coordination of body movement. Neuro-inflammation is pathogenesis of development in early Parkinson's disease. High-sensitivity C-reactive protein level is a useful non-specific biochemical marker of inflammation. Objective of this study was to analyze the symptoms of Parkinson disease and it's correlation with high sensitive CRP. Seventy-six Parkinson's disease patients were enrolled in this Cross-sectional observational study that was attended in the Department of Neurology, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University (BSMMU), Bangladesh from September 2014 to March 2016. Analysis of the symptoms of Parkinson disease and it's correlation with high sensitive CRP were done among these patients. This study was performed on 76 Parkinson disease patients with presented early with symptoms. a positive and highly significant correlation were seen in between duration of tremor and High sensitivity CRP (r=0.430, p<0.001) and between duration of bradykinesia and High sensitivity CRP (r=0.426, p<0.001) which indicate increase duration causes increase level of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein value. The neuro-inflammation plays a significant role in the pathogenesis of symptoms development in early Parkinson's disease.
