Parkinson's Genetic Mental Retardation Syndrome

Abstract

Nicole Louis

The neurological condition known as Parkinson’s syndrome causes intellectual incapacity as well as a condition known as focal dystonia that mostly affects hand movement. Parkinson’s syndrome typically affects men; when it affects women, the signs and symptoms are milder. Parkinson’s syndrome is typically linked with mild to moderate intellectual impairment. Some of the affected people exhibit traits of autism spectrum disorders, which impair social interaction and communication. Parkinson’s syndrome can potentially lead to recurrent seizures.
