Abstract
Our study demonstrates that placebo was very effective in reducing resting tremor in about half of patients with tPD. The decrease in tremor amplitude in placebo responders was similar to that induced by apomorphine. The cerebral mechanisms underlying the placebo effect on resting tremor need further investigations.
