Data presented as mean±standard deviation. Bold highlight indicates significant difference between PD and OAs at specific time point. ‘-‘describes an empty field, due to data availability. MDS-UPDRS III = Movement Disorder Society – Unified Parkinson’s Disease Rating Scale – Part III. LEDD = Levodopa equivalent daily dosage.
