Validation and reliability of a modified sphygmomanometer for the assessment of handgrip strength in Parkinson's disease.
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 — Correlation, error table and limits of transfer
Tables 1–3 match 24 PD/26 controls, correlations .68/.45, SEMs 2.55/2.67 and MDCs 7.06/7.40 mm Hg. Recalculation is compatible with rounding. The paper explicitly warns of poor interrater agreement.
Source locator: Tables 1–3 and Abstract
Limitations: Exact figure values subsequently inspected in STR-15-02. AI-assisted source comparison; no raw-data verification.
Parkinson’s disease strength component — Sphygmomanometer agreement figure values
Figure 2 explicitly gives PD interrater right bias−8.1 with limits−26.6 to 10.4, and left bias−10.3 with limits−33.9 to 13.4 mm Hg. These match the report and are much wider than its tabulated MDCs imply.
