Abstract:
Parkinson's disease combined with thyroid dysfunction is not uncommon in clinical practice.Due to similarities and overlaps between their symptoms and an unclear cause-and-effect relationship, the diagnosis and treatment may be missed and delayed.Here we summarize the clinical manifestations of the two diseases and analyze the potential pathogenic mechanisms shared between them, in order to provide a reference for the understanding of their pathogenesis and for the treatment of Parkinson's disease.
