DA Forero, Y Gonzalez-Giraldo… - Experimental …, 2016 - Elsevier
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a common and severe movement disorder. Differences in

highlighting the need for a meta-analysis. In the current work, a meta-analysis of published
studies for TL in PD was carried out. PubMed, Web of Science and Google Scholar
databases were used to identify relevant articles that reported TL in groups of PD patients …
