Good news. Confirms earlier study
onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi...
"We included 302 patients from the Parkinson's Progression Markers Initiative cohort. There was a small improvement in MDS‐UPDRS Part III scores after 2 years of follow‐up for patients who started treatment earlier, and similar, but nonstatistically significant, differences in subsequent years. We found no statistically significant differences in most secondary outcomes, including the presence of motor fluctuations, nonmotor symptoms, MDS‐UPDRS Part II scores, and the Schwab and England Activities of Daily Living Scale.
Conclusion
Earlier treatment initiation does not lead to worse MDS‐UPDRS motor scores and may offer small improvements."
