Brief Summary:
This study aim to evaluate the correlation between Quality of Life (QoL) and severity of Parkinson's Disease (PD) by assessing the presence of an optimal cut-off point on the Parkinson's disease questionnaire (PDQ-39) as related to the Hoehn \& Yahr (H\&Y) scale in a cohort of Italian adults with PD.
A multicenter, cross-sectional study was performed in central and northern Italy. This study was conducted on a cohort of consecutive individuals at three neurologic outpatient clinics. All participants were evaluated with the PDQ-39, and the severity of PD was recorded according to the H\&Y scale by a neurologist. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and coordinates of the curve, which were visually inspected, were used to find cut-off points with optimal sensitivity and specificity. These were in turn used to determine the optimal PDQ-39 cut-off score for identifying disease severity according to H\&Y stages.
