Differences in muscle strength in parkinsonian patients affected on the right and left side.
This note indexes a cited or audit-added source. It may be an original study, review, guideline, form or methods reference. Treat the specific design and the evidence below as authoritative; a source note is not automatically a primary study.

Parkinson’s disease strength component — Frazzitta peak-torque protocol and side-dependent pattern
Methods and Tables 1–4 match 25 PD/15 controls, all right-handed, three test speeds, best of five maximum efforts and one-minute rests. Overall comparisons are mostly null; clinical-side subgroup findings differ.
Source locator: Methods; Tables 1–4
Limitations: AI-assisted source comparison; no raw-data verification.
Parkinson’s disease strength component — Residual Cybex positioning, randomization and artefact handling
Methods confirms hip 90°, trunk/thigh straps, knee-axis alignment, gravity correction at 45°flexion, five maximal efforts per 90/120/180°/s in randomized speed order, best value, one-minute recovery between maximal contractions and exclusion of impact artefact. The detailed protocol and its distinction from range-average torque are supported.
