Note. LEDD = levodopa equivalent daily doses; UPDRS = Unified Parkinson’s Disease Rating Scale; MMSE = Mini-Mental State Examination Czech version; PD = Parkinson’s disease; PD-NC = Parkinson’s disease with normal cognition; ns = nonsignificant result; MoCA = Montreal Cognitive Assessment; MoCA-CZ = Montreal Cognitive Assessment Czech version; s-MoCA-CZ = short version MoCA-CZ; IPMDS = International Parkinson and Movement Disorder Society; PD-MCI = Parkinson’s disease with mild cognitive impairment, p Value is based on Mann-Whitney U test due to nonnormal distribution (or on independent samples t test in parenthesis). Data represent means or percentages, standard deviations, and medians. IPMDS PD-MCI battery domains, raw scores for the neuropsychological tests are provided.
χ2 test for independence (with Yates Continuity Correction).
