چکیده
Background: In addition to motor speech disorders, patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) experience language impairments. Given the importance of language in human communication and quality of life, this study aimed to examine high-level language skills in Persian-speaking patients with PD.
Methods: Fourteen patients with PD and normal cognitive status and fourteen healthy controls matched for age, sex, and education level were administered a high-level language test. The test included the following subtests: repetition of long sentences, recreating sentences, making inferences, comprehension of logico-grammatical sentences, comprehension of lexical and syntactic ambiguities, comprehension of metaphors, and word definitions.
Results: The results indicated that the mean scores of the patients with PD were consistently lower than those of the healthy control group. Significant differences were observed between the two groups in the repetition of long sentences, recreating sentences, and making inferences subtests, as well as in the total test score (P ≤ 0.005).
Conclusion: The findings of this study indicate that high-level language skills are impaired in patients with PD. These findings may help speech-language pathologists identify the linguistic difficulties these patients experience and develop targeted intervention plans to address the adverse effects of these language impairments.
