Key Points

  • To determine how age at symptom onset influences the motor phenotype and overall clinical presentation of Parkinson's disease.
  • Assessed clinical features and motor symptom profiles across patient cohorts stratified by early-onset and late-onset Parkinson's disease.
  • Demonstrated marked clinical differences in motor presentation and symptom expression between early-onset and late-onset cohorts.
  • Identified distinct phenotypic patterns with direct implications for optimizing diagnostic workflows and individualized therapeutic management.

Abstract

This study highlights the clinical differences between early and late onset PD, which have important implications for diagnosis and management.
