Abstract
Patients with PD and depression showed increased flexion at pelvis level, which caused the trunk to tilt anteriorly. In addition, the severity of depression was correlated with the degree of anterior tilting of the head and trunk. These findings suggest that stooped posture, especially from the pelvis level, could be a marker of depression in patients with PD.
