Hi,
Do you have medline or other reference for this information:"The "Parkinsonian personality" is sort of described in literature - it resembled dysthymia, adhedonia, social phobia, (the negative symptoms of skitzophrenia). The pathology of Parkinsonism is well known - the risk of Parkinsonism in those with SP escalates by a factor of 5. Both illnesses involve reduced striatal dopamine receptor density. What causes this? I don't know - but we know we observe a similar pattern."
