Core Tip This meta-analysis of five studies discussed the clinical efficacy of dopaminergic agents combined with selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors in the treatment of Parkinson’s disease with depressive disorder. The results showed that the effective rate of depression improvement and the quality of life score of the combined treatment were higher, but there was no significant difference in motor function. These findings highlight the importance of combined therapy for Parkinson’s disease and depressive disorders.
