BACKGROUND: Postural disorders are frequently observed in Parkinson's disease (PD). The underlying mechanisms that cause postural disorders are not fully understood and the majority of these disorders have no response to antiparkinsonian treatments. These disabling conditions require further investigation to better understand the underlying mechanisms in order to develop effective treatments.
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to investigate the frequency of axial postural disorders in PD and to determine the associated clinical risk factors.
METHODS: In this single-center clinical trial, the data of PD patients were reviewed retrospectively. The frequencies of postural disorders were determined, and the demographic clinical characteristics of the patients were compared.
RESULTS: The records of 127 patients with idiopathic PD were analyzed. Axial posture disorders were found in 42.6% of patients. Patients with axial posture disorders were older when the disease onset was detected, amongst these patients the condition was also longer lasting. The mean levodopa dose was higher in the patients with posture disorders. The initial symptom was bradykinesia and the Hoehn and Yahr's score was ⩾ 3 in the majority of the patients with posture disorder. Additionally, constipation, hallucinations, postural instability, and falls were significantly more common in patients with posture disorders.
CONCLUSION: Posture disorders were observed in nearly half of PD patients and were more frequently observed in patients with an advanced condition. In addition, our investigation has found that it is crucial to follow up with patients who present with bradykinesia for the development of postural disorder.
