abstract：BACKGROUND:Patients with Parkinson disease (PD) may present with various types of pain. In some instances, no cause can be identified and pain is considered a primary disorder (primary central pain [PCP]). We hypothesized that PCP in patients with PD (PD-PCP) may be due to a dysfunction of pain pathways or the processi...
