Excerpt
Isolated rapid eye movement (REM) sleep behavior disorder (iRBD) is a prodromal condition, with iRBD demonstrating a propensity to phenoconvert to synucleinopathies, including Parkinson’s disease (PD), dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB), and multiple system atrophy (MSA) [
1]. In parallel, orthostatic hypotension (OH) stands out as a prevalent non-motor manifestation within the spectrum of synucleinopathies [
2]. Despite the close association and the prodromal significance, a paucity of large prospective investigations has hindered the determination of OH prevalence in iRBD. …
