Onset of Postural Instability in Parkinson’s Disease Depends on Age rather than Disease Duration

Figure 3

Age at onset of postural instability does not correlate with disease duration. Figure 3 shows the distribution of (a) age at onset of postural instability, (b) age at onset of PD, (c) total MDS-UPDRS III scores, MoCA test results in correlation to the disease duration of PD (graph (d)) (x-Axis: PD years until postural stability) and MoCA test results in correlation to age at onset of postural instability (e). The n-numbers are indicated above the graphs, The red dotted line shows the calculated linear regression. Correlation analysis: R values and values are indicated in the graphs in the right corner. Spearman’s test, statistically significant.
