Possible Criticisms of the UPDRS

[Alock2020]

I've been using the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) to determine whether I've reached the optimal level of B1, per the Constantini Protocol. I've been considering two possible questions/criticisms of it:

1) Are the rating of each type of impairment weighted in proportion to their importance? I can't tell. For instance, #13 (Falling) may be rated from 0-4, as may be #28 (Posture), but what if Falling is 5 times more important than Posture? Then wouldn't the correct rating scale be 0-20 for Falling and 0-4 for Posture?

2) Many Parkinsonians suffer from constipation and/or incontinence/frequent urination. Why aren't these covered?

You need a different part of the UPDRS. The non motor questions are separate I think. Try here. movementdisorders.org/MDS-F...
