The Effects of Safinamide in Chinese and Non-Chinese Patients with Parkinson's Disease

IntroductionEthnicity differences are an important determinant in the clinical manifestation of Parkinson's disease (PD), but they are not yet widely recognized, particularly regarding the response to dopaminergic medications. The aim of this paper is to analyze the efficacy and safety of safin...
