People with Parkinson's disease (PwP) have been suggested to be more vulnerable to negative psychological and psycho-social effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. Our aim was to assess the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in PwP. A Danish/Swedish cohort of 67 PwP was analysed. Health-related quality of life (HRQL), depression, anxiety, apathy, sleep and motor symptom-scores were included in the analysis. Additionally, the Danish participants provided free-text descriptions of life during the pandemic. Overall, the participants reported significantly better HRQL during the COVID-19 period compared with before. Reduced social pressure may be part of the explanation. Despite worsened anxiety, night sleep improved.
帕金森病患者（PwP）被认为更容易受到 COVID-19 大流行带来的负面心理和心理社会影响。我们旨在评估 COVID-19 大流行对 PwP 的潜在影响。分析了丹麦/瑞典的 67 名 PwP 队列。分析中包括健康相关生活质量（HRQL）、抑郁、焦虑、淡漠、睡眠和运动症状评分。此外，丹麦参与者提供了大流行期间生活的自由文本描述。总体而言，与大流行前相比，参与者报告在 COVID-19 期间的 HRQL 显著改善。社交压力的减轻可能是部分原因。尽管焦虑恶化，但夜间睡眠得到改善。
