The UPDRS is a comprehensive instrument used to assess the signs and symptoms of Parkinson's disease and includes patient and clinician-based assessments of motor, cognitive, and behavioral symptoms. The UPDRS-Dysarthria question pertaining to speech/dysarthria was used to monitor study participants for parkinsonism. Participants rated their responses on a scale ranging from 0 to 4, where 0 = normal; 1 = mildly affected, no difficulty being understood; 2 = moderately affected, sometimes asked to repeat statements; 3 = severely affected, frequently asked to repeat statements; 4 = unintelligible most of the time. Higher scores indicated greater impairment.

BARS is a rating scale for evaluation of drug-induced akathisia. It includes a summary score (objective assessment of akathisia and subjective measures [self-awareness and distress]) and a global clinical assessment. Objective akathisia rated on a scale of 0-3 (0=normal, occasional fidgety movements of limbs; 1=characteristic restless movements for less than half the time observed; 2= characteristic restless movements for at least half the time observed; 3=constant characteristic restless movements). Subjective measures included awareness of restlessness (rated on a scale of 0 [absence of inner restlessness] to 3 [awareness of intense compulsion to move]) and distress related to restlessness (rated on a scale of 0 [no distress] to 3 [severe distress]). Objective akathisia and subjective measures summed to yield summary score ranging from 0 (no akathisia and restlessness) to 9 (severe akathisia and restlessness), where higher scores indicated more akathisia and restlessness.

Strong compulsion to pace up and down most of the time. Constant restlessness associated with intense distress and insomnia. Higher scores indicated more akathisia.

HADS is a self-administered instrument reliable for detecting states of depression and anxiety It includes 2 subscales: Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale - anxiety (HADS-A) assesses state of generalized anxiety (anxious mood, restlessness, anxious thoughts, panic attacks); Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale - depression (HADS-D) assesses state of lost interest and diminished pleasure response (lowering of hedonic tone). Each subscale comprised of 7 items with range 0 (no presence of anxiety or depression) to 3 (severe feeling of anxiety or depression). Total score ranged from 0 to 21 for each subscale; where higher score indicated greater severity of anxiety and depression symptoms.

ESS is a self-administered questionnaire comprised of 8 questions that provides a measure of a participant's general level of daytime sleepiness. Participants were asked to rate their usual chances of dozing off or falling asleep in different situations or activities that most people engage in as part of their daily lives (sitting and reading; watching TV; sitting inactive in a public place; as a passenger in a car for an hour without a break; lying down to rest in the afternoon when circumstances permit; sitting and talking to someone; sitting quietly after a lunch without alcohol; in a car, while stopped for a few minutes in traffic), on a 4-point Likert scale ranging from 0 to 3, where 0=no chance; 1=slight chance; 2=moderate chance; 3=high chance. Total ESS score is the sum of 8 item-scores and can range between 0 and 24 with a higher the score indicating a higher level of daytime sleepiness.

C-SSRS is a clinician rated assessment of suicidal behavior and ideation categorized as: Suicidal behavior=a "yes" response to any of 5 suicidal behavior questions (preparatory acts or behavior, aborted attempt, interrupted attempt, non-fatal suicide attempt, and completed suicide); Suicidal ideation=a "yes" response to any one of 5 suicidal ideation questions which includes wish to be dead, non-specific active suicidal thoughts, active suicidal ideation with any methods (not plan) without intent to act, active suicidal ideation with some intent to act without specific plan, active suicidal ideation with specific plan and intent.

MoCA is a validated rapid screening instrument for assessing mild cognitive dysfunction. It assesses different cognitive domains: attention and concentration, executive functions, memory, language, visuoconstructional skills, conceptual thinking, calculations, and orientation by using 30 questions test. Time to administer the MoCA© is approximately 10 minutes. The total possible score ranges from 0 (worst) to 30 (best) points; where higher scores indicate better cognitive function. A score of 26 or above is considered normal and a score below 26 is considered as recognitive dysfunction.

The UHDRS is a research tool developed by the Huntington Disease (HD) Study Group to provide a uniform assessment of the clinical features and course of HD. The components of the full UHDRS assess motor function, cognition, behaviour, functional abilities, independence scale and total functional capacities. The total behavior score is made up of subscores evaluating depressed mood, apathy, low self-esteem/guilt, compulsive behavior, anxiety, irritable behavior, perseverative/obsessive thinking, disruptive/aggressive behavior, suicidal thoughts, delusions, and hallucinations. For each subscore the frequency and severity was assessed separately. Frequency was rated on a scale of 0 (never or almost never) to 4 (very frequently, most of the time). Severity was rated on a scale of 0 (no evidence) to 4 (severe). Total behavior score ranges from 0 (no impairment) to 88 (severe impairment). Higher scores indicated greater behavioral impairments.

UHDRS is a research tool developed by HD Study Group to provide a uniform assessment of the clinical features and course of HD. Components of the full UHDRS assess motor function, cognition, behaviour, functional abilities, independence scale and total functional capacities (TFC). TFC is a 5-item clinician rating scale typically completed after a brief interview with a participant and/or collateral source. TFC globally assesses occupation, finances, domestic chores, activities of daily living, and level of care, with scores on each item ranging from 0 to either 2 or 3 (e.g., Occupation: 0 = unable, 1 = marginal work only, 2 = reduced capacity for usual job, 3 = normal). The five items are summed to yield a TFC total score, which ranges from 0 (normal function) to 13 (severe dysfunction). Higher scores indicated better functioning.

Components of UHDRS assess motor function,cognition,behaviour,functional abilities,independence scale, total functional capacities. Cognitive assessment component:verbal fluency(VF) score (memory,attention)(requiring participant to generate as many words as possible beginning with a specific letter[F,A,S]in 60 seconds [sec]. Score[no range]:total number of correct words for 3 letters), symbol digit modalities test(SDMT) score(psychomotor speed,attention)(participant is required to pair digits to assigned symbols using a reference key. Score[0 {worst}-120 {best}]:total number of correct written responses in 90 sec), \& Stroop interference(SI) score (selective attention,executive function)(includes 3 conditions:naming colour blocks[blue, red or green]; reading colour words printed in black ink; naming ink colour of incongruous colour words. For each condition score(no range)is number of correct responses produced in 45 sec). In these tests, higher scores reflect better cognitive ability.

UHDRS is a research tool developed by HD Study Group to provide a uniform assessment of the clinical features and course of HD. Components of the full UHDRS assess motor function, cognition, behaviour, functional abilities, independence scale and total functional capacities. Motor function assessment includes total motor score (TMS) and TMC score.
