abstract: The aim of this paper is to analyze the results of correlation of clinical symptoms and their characteristics with the results of neurophysiologic, neuropsycologic investigations and short genetic analyses in patients with Idiopathic Parkinson's disease (IPD).
  
  
  METHODS

  RESULTS
  Patients with idiopathic Parkinson's disease had all cardinal symptoms characteristic for the disease: tremor, rigidity and reduced postural reflexes in 100%.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Clinical, neurophysiologic, neuropsychologic and neuroimaging methods of investigations showed changes that are nonspecific in proportions corresponding to those in available literature (Tab. 3, Fig. 2, Ref. 11).
