| Research Abstract |
To detect gastric dysfunction due to gastric plexus lesions in early Parkinson's disease (PD), we recorded electrogastrogram in 38 PD patients and 7 healthy control subjects. Our PD patients showed gastric-electrical abnormalities. Our results indicate potential usefulness of electrogastrography in diagnosing early PD.
