Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of SSRIs on sexual function: a critical review.
TL;DR: The effects of SSRIs on sexual functioning seem strongly dose-related and may vary among the group according to serotonin and dopamine reuptake mechanisms, induction of prolactin release, anticholinergic effects, inhibition of nitric oxide synthetase, and propensity for accumulation over time.
Journal ArticleDOI
A controlled trial of antidepressants in patients with Parkinson disease and depression
Matthew Menza,Roseanne D. Dobkin,Humberto Marin,Margery H. Mark,Michael A. Gara,Steven Buyske,Karina L. Bienfait,Allison Dicke +7 more
TL;DR: The trial suggests that depression in patients with PD is responsive to treatment and raises questions about the relative efficacy of dual reuptake inhibitors and selective serotonin reuptakes inhibitors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Parkinson's disease and anxiety: Comorbidity with depression
TL;DR: It is suggested that anxiety and depression are related manifestations of the underlying neurochemical changes of PD itself and are unlikely to be primarily a psychologic reaction to the illness or a side effect of levodopa treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The proposed diagnostic criteria are provisional and intended to be defined further and validated but provide a common starting point for clinical research in PD‐associated depression.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dopamine‐related personality traits in Parkinson's disease
TL;DR: Evidence supporting the claim that novelty seeking is dopamine-dependent is reviewed, and it is suggested that damage to the mesolimbic dopaminergic system causes the described personality profile of PD patients.
