Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
1. understand the distribution of risk profiles for PD in the general population, especially regarding non-motor symptoms
2. identify subjects with a likelihood of developing PD
3. follow individuals with a high likelihood/risk to develop PD in the future (compared to individuals with low risk and) in a prospective study
4. understand the potential of biological markers to increase prediction of progression/conversion
5. identify subtypes of PD patients, by providing a detailed clinical phenotyping with a main focus on non-motor symptoms cluster
6. provide a framework of ethical handling of early risk disclosure in PD

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
REM behavior disorder +
Individuals with REM Sleep Behavior Disorder:
All individuals will be included in a prospective, longitudinal observational study, including an annual investigation at the Department for Neurology (detailed anamnesis, neurological examination, motor assessment). Blood sampling will be performed every six months, non-motor symptoms will be assessed every three months using online surveys. All individuals can participate in an optional substudy including lumbar punctures every two years.
No intervention
No intervention
REM behavior disorder -
Individuals without REM Sleep Behavior Disorder with increased risk for PD:
All individuals will be included in a prospective, longitudinal observational study, including an annual investigation at the Department for Neurology (detailed anamnesis, neurological examination, motor assessment). Blood sampling will be performed every six months, non-motor symptoms will be assessed every three months using online surveys. All individuals can participate in an optional substudy including lumbar punctures every two years.
