Dose-Dependent Memory Impairment in Parkinson's Disease
Neurol 39:438-440, Huber,S.J.,et al, 1989
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Variation in plasma dopamine level between the time of original learning and subsequent memory retrieval causes a state-dependent memory impairment in Parkinson's disease.The occurrence of this phenomenon is not related to either progression of disease or duration of therapy,but is more likely to occur with high-dosage levels of levodopa-carbidopa.
