- Abstract
The article discusses the study conducted to mark the differences in the cerebral white matter lesions observed in Parkinson's Disease (PD) patients with or without dementia. The study is stated to be the first to quantify cerebral white matter lesions (CWMLs) pathologically in Parkinson Disease Dementia (PDD). Reportedly it supports the hypothesis that the cumulative burden of CWMLs correlates with dementia in PD patients.
