title: [Nocturnal symptoms of Parkinson's disease and approaches to their correction].
abstract: Seventy-three patients with Parkinson's disease were enrolled. Patients were stratified into 2 groups by the presence (53 patients) or absence (20 patients) of nocturnal symptoms. A control group included 10 healthy people. The most frequent were the following symptoms: nocturia (71.8%), affective disorders (52.4%), akinesia (41.7%) and crampi (30.15%). These symptoms were more pronounced in akinetic/rigid form, greater severity and higher rate of progression of the disease. The positive therapeutic effect of stalevo on the above mentioned disorders was shown.
