Markers of neurodegeneration in idiopathic rapid eye movement sleep behaviour disorder and Parkinson's disease
Brain, 10/30/09

Postuma RB et al. – Patients with idiopathic rapid eye movement sleep behaviour disorder demonstrate abnormalities in numerous potential markers of neurodegenerative disease—these markers are heterogeneous, generally correlate with each other and occur equally in men and women.
