“…To date, there is no direct evidence that the auditory deficits presented by PD patients are associated with dopaminergic neuron loss. However, there is evidence demonstrating that these auditory deficits are not merely age‐related hearing loss, but are rather components of dysfunctional cognitive and sensory processing (Folmer, Vachhani, Theodoroff, Ellinger, & Riggins, ; Lai, Liao, Lin, Lin, & Sung, ; Yylmaz et al, ). As such, PD‐related auditory deficits also involve attentional, motivational and motoric components likely associated to parallel cortico‐thalamic‐striatal‐cerebellar loops modulated by dopamine (Clark, Adams, Dykstra, Moodie, & Jog, ; Gräber, Hertrich, Daum, Spieker, & Ackermann, ; Schröder, Nikolova, & Dengler, ; Shalash et al, ; Vitale et al, ).…”
