Monoamine Oxide Type B Inhibitors in Early Parkinson's Disease:Meta-Analysis of 17 Randomised Trials Involving 3525 Patients
BMJ 329:593-596, Ives,N.J.,et al, 2004
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
MAOBIs reduce disability, the need for levodopa, and the incidence of motor fluctuations, without substantial side effects or increased mortality. However, because few trials have compared MAOBIs with other antiparkinsonian drugs, uncertainty remains about the relative benefits and risks of MAOBIs. Further large, long term comparative trials that include patient rated quality of life measures are needed.
