Rationale 1: Parkinson's disease has several symptoms, including muscle stiffness, pill-rolling activity, and bradykinesia.
Rationale 2: Patients with multiple sclerosis often have fatigue, heat-sensitivity, spasticity, and visual impairment.
Rationale 3: Patients with AD have memory issues.
Rationale 4: Patient with ALS have progressive muscle weakness which eventually involves the respiratory muscles.
Global Rationale: Patients with multiple sclerosis often have fatigue, heat-sensitivity, spasticity, and visual impairment. Parkinson's disease has several symptoms, including muscle stiffness, pill-rolling activity, and bradykinesia. Patients with AD have memory issues. Patient with ALS have progressive muscle weakness which eventually involves the respiratory muscles.
