Research works have suggested almost incontrovertibly, that Adolf Hitler suffered from Parkinsonism. However, the precise nature of his illness had always been controversial and post-encephalitic and idiopathic varieties were the ones which were most commonly thought as the possible etiology. He displayed features like oculogyric crisis, palilalia, and autonomic symptoms which strongly implicate post-encephalitic etiology in the genesis of his illness. Others on the contrary, observed premorbid personality traits like non-flinching mental rigidity, extreme inflexibility, and awesome pedantry; which are often observed in idiopathic Parkinson's disease. Moreover, nonmotor symptoms like disturbed sleep, proneness to temper tantrums, phases of depression, suspiciousness, and lack of trust on colleagues have also been described by various authors. Additionally, he was prescribed methamphetamine by his personal doctor and that might have led to the development of some of the later traits in his personality.
研究工作几乎无可争议地表明,阿道夫·希特勒患有帕金森症。然而,他疾病的确切性质一直存在争议,人们最常认为其病因可能是脑炎后型和特发性类型。他表现出诸如动眼危象、复述语言和自主神经症状等特征,这些强烈暗示其疾病的发生与脑炎后病因有关。相反,其他人观察到他病前的人格特质,如坚定不移的精神僵化、极度固执和令人敬畏的迂腐;这些特质在特发性帕金森病中经常可以观察到。此外,不同作者还描述了他的非运动症状,如睡眠障碍、容易发脾气、抑郁阶段、多疑以及对同事缺乏信任。此外,他的私人医生给他开了甲基苯丙胺,这可能导致了他后来一些人格特质的发展。
