We studied 62 patients (30 men and 32 women, mean age 71.1± 4.5 years and mean educational level 11.5 ± 1 years).

The patients were treated with levo-dopa monotherapy or dopaminergic agonists monotherapy. We have also included in our study a control group composed of 70 control subjects with the same range of educational level and age. To assess the cognitive state we tested the patients using Cambridge Cognitive Examination (CAMCOG) and the revised version of the Addenbrooke′s Cognitive Examination (ACE-R) at baseline, after 6 months and one year later.
