Occurrence of Resting Tremor in Parkinson's Disease
Neurol 41:1298-1299, Rajput,A.H.,et al, 1991
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Several previous studies have noted that resting tremor(RT)is absent in 10%to 30%of idiopathic Parkinson's disease(IPD)patients.We report our 22- year observations in 47 pathologically verified parkinsonian patients.In all the IPD cases with median follow-up of 3.7 years,RT was noted on at least one evaluation.Among other parkinsonian syndrome variants characterized by widespread subcortical pathology with median follow-up of 2.86 years,RT was seen in 31%of the cases.Our data indicate that the sites typically involved in IPD are sufficient to produce RT.
