"These results suggest conventional neuropsychological tools may fail to clinically differentiate PIGD patients, which may be due to the particular neuropsychological battery used in the clinical evaluation of these patients."

Also, from 2012:

"The results suggest that cholinergic dysfunction may be an important and early contributor to gait dysfunction in Parkinson’s disease. The findings also point to the contribution of non-motor mechanisms to gait dysfunction. Our study provides new insights into underlying mechanisms of non-dopaminergic gait dysfunction, and may help to direct future therapeutic approaches."

Cholinergic dysfunction contributes to gait disturbance in early Parkinson’s disease.

Agree - a bit of additional evidence - Taking an anti-cholinergic definitely interfered with my gait.
