Parkinson's disease (PD) is a significant cause of disability, with a fast-growing prevalence. This review summarizes the epidemiological and clinical data, research on the diagnostic approaches and the interventions available in the Eastern European country of Romania. This scoping review follows the recommendations on the scoping review methodology by Joanna Briggs Institute. We searched four databases (up to 27 January 2021). The data of eligible studies were extracted in standardized forms. We identified 149 unique studies from 1133 records, with 11 epidemiological studies, 52 studies investigating clinical aspects of PD, 35 studies on diagnostic tools, and 51 intervention studies. A narrative synthesis is provided and placed in a historical context. Our review revealed a considerable increase in the Romanian research on PD in the latest 15 years, which largely follows international trends. However, we also identified several research gaps that provide useful information for policymakers, public health specialists, and clinicians.
帕金森病(PD)是导致残疾的一个重要原因,其患病率正在迅速上升。本综述总结了东欧国家罗马尼亚的流行病学和临床数据、诊断方法研究以及可用干预措施。本范围综述遵循乔安娜·布里格斯研究所关于范围综述方法的建议。我们检索了四个数据库(截至2021年1月27日)。符合条件的研究数据以标准化形式提取。我们从1133条记录中识别出149项独特研究,其中11项为流行病学研究,52项研究帕金森病的临床方面,35项关于诊断工具的研究,以及51项干预研究。我们进行了叙述性综合分析,并将其置于历史背景中。我们的综述显示,罗马尼亚在过去15年中对帕金森病的研究有了显著增加,这在很大程度上遵循了国际趋势。然而,我们也发现了几个研究空白,可为政策制定者、公共卫生专家和临床医生提供有用信息。
