PurposeSelf-stigma is common in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) and may lead to social isolation and delayed search for medical help. We conducted a 3-year prospective longitudinal study to investigate the development and evolution of self-stigma in patients with early stage PD and to explore the associated and predictive factors of self-stigma in PD.MethodA total of 224 patients with early stage PD (disease duration ResultsThe prevalence of self-stigma decreased from 58.0% at baseline to 49.2% after 3 years. The Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HDRS) score was the only associated factor [B: 0.160 (1.106-0.214), P P = 0.015] of the onset of self-stigma.ConclusionSelf-stigma is very common in PD, but its prevalence tends to decrease as the disease progresses. Depression was the only associated and predictive factor of self-stigma in PD and could be an effective target of alleviating self-stigma.
