    Outcomes

    Primary Outcome Measures

    The efficacy of the treatment on the sleep disorders in Parkinson's disease evaluated by PSQI scale score change
    The Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI) is a widely used sleep evaluation scale in the Chinese population. The sensitivity and specificity of the PSQI (cut-off at 7) are 98.3% and 90.2%, respectively. PSQI has been used to evaluate the sleep disorders in patients with Parkinson's disease focusing on their sleep habits primarily.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    The efficacy of the treatment on the sleep disorders in Parkinson's disease evaluated by PDSS, sleep diary and activity trackers
    The Parkinson disease sleep scale (PDSS) is used to analyze the underlying causes of sleep disorders based on the results of each factor. In 2010, the International Movement Disorder Society (MDS) recommended that both PDSS and PSQI can be used for the screening and assessment of sleep disorders in the Parkinson's disease. Sleep diary is an internationally recognized method to assist the examination of sleep disorders, and keeping recording a sleep diary every day is an effective therapy for some patients with insomnia. Activity trackers can monitor and track fitness-related metrics such as distance walked or run, calorie consumption, heartbeat and quality of sleep, which can be used as a reference of patients' sleep quality and circadian rhythm.
    The efficacy on the excessive daytime sleepiness of patients with Parkinson's disease
    Scale: Epworth sleepiness scale(ESS) score change The Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) is a self-administered questionnaire with 8 questions. Respondents are asked to rate, on a 4-point scale (0-3), their usual chances of dozing off or falling asleep while engaged in eight different activities. Most people engage in those activities at least occasionally, although not necessarily every day. The ESS score (the sum of 8 item scores, 0-3) can range from 0 to 24. The higher the ESS score, the higher that person's average sleep propensity in daily life (ASP), or their 'daytime sleepiness'. The questionnaire takes no more than 2 or 3 minutes to answer.
    The efficacy on the fatigue of patients with Parkinson's disease
    Scale:The Fatigue Severity Scale (FSS) score change The Fatigue Severity Scale (FSS) is a scale used in the evaluation of fatigue that affects patients. A list of statements/questions is provided. These statements are related to the different aspects of fatigue and how it affects the body. While rating the questions, one should make use of the scale with numbers from 1 to 7. If a person strongly agrees with a particular statement, the rating of 7 should be given. Strong disagreement is expressed by rating the question as 1. The sum total of ratings given to all questions is used to determine the degree or severity of fatigue that a person is suffering from. The total score of 36 or above calculated using the scale indicates that a person is suffering from fatigue-related health problem. A score that is lower than 36 shows that the health is normal.
    The efficacy on the circadian rhythm of patients with Parkinson's disease
    Scale: The Morningness-Eveningness Questionnaire (MEQ) score change Circadian rhythm disorder is a kind of important sleep disorder. Body temperature and hormone level changes are effective methods to determine the daily cycle, but these methods are cumbersome. The scale evaluation is much easier to implement. The Morningness-Eveningness Questionnaire (MEQ) is the most widely known questionnaire to assess circadian preference. Cut-off points were evaluated: a range of 14-52 for Evening types, 53-64 for neither types, and 65-86 for Morning types.
    The efficacy on the rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (RBD) of patients with Parkinson's disease
    Scale: The Rapid Eye Movement Sleep Behavior Disorder Questionnaire-Hong Kong (RBDQ-HK) score change It has been reported that the incidence of RBD in nucleoproteins disease is 90% for multiple system atrophy (MSA) and 38-56% for Parkinson's disease (PD). Therefore, the proportion and severity of RBD in the Parkinson's disease were needed to screened through the RBD screening questionnaire. The rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder questionnaire (RBDQ)-Hong Kong was the first tool developed for quantifying the severity of RBD. The RBDQ-HK is a self-administered questionnaire with 13 questions. The RBDQ-HK score can range from 0 to 100. The sum total of ratings given to all questions is used to determine the degree or severity of RBD that a person is suffering from. The higher the RBDQ-HK score is, the worse the symptoms are.The best cut-off score was 17/18.
    The efficacy on the depression of patients with Parkinson's disease
    Scales: The Hamilton Depression Scale-17 (HAMD-17) score change The Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD) is a test measuring the severity of depressive symptoms in individuals, often those who have already been diagnosed as having a depressive disorder.In the 17-item version, nine of the items are scored on a five-point scale, ranging from 0 (not present) to 4 (severe). The remaining eight items are scored on a three-point scale, from 0 to 2, with zero representing absence of symptom, one indicating doubt that the symptom is present, and two representing clear presence of symptoms. Scores can range from 0 to 54. One formulation suggests that scores between 0 and 6 indicate a normal person with regard to depression, scores between 7 and 17 indicate mild depression, scores between 18 and 24 indicate moderate depression, and scores over 24 indicate severe depression.
    The efficacy on the anxiety of patients with Parkinson's disease
    Scales: The Hamilton Anxiety Scale(HAMA) score change The Hamilton Anxiety Scale(HAMA) is a widely used interview scale to measure the severity of a patient's anxiety, based on 14 parameters, including anxious mood, tension, fears, insomnia, somatic complaints and behavior at the interview. The major value of HAM-A is to document the results of pharmaco- or psychotherapy, rather than as a diagnostic or screening tool. It takes 15-20 minutes to complete the interview and scoring. Each item is simply given a 5-point score: 0 (not present) to 4 (severe). The HAMA score can range from 0 to 56. The best cut-off score was 14.
    The efficacy on the movement of patients with Parkinson's disease
    Scale: Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS-III) score change The European Medicines Agency (EMA) guideline mentions the UPDRS II and III scales as accepted scales to measure the efficacy of a drug for Parkinson's Disease. The Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale-III (UPDRS-III) is the most widely used scale currently available for the clinical evaluation of motor dysfunction in Parkinson's disease (PD). Each item is simply given a 5-point score: 0 (Absent) to 4 (Marked in amplitude and present most of the time). The UPDRS-III score can range from 0 to 56. The higher the UPDRS-III score is, the worse the symptoms are.
    The efficacy on the life quality of patients with Parkinson's disease
    Scale: Parkinson's Disease Questionnaire-8 (PDQ-8) score change Substantial evidence is available to suggest that the Parkinson's Disease Questionnaire (PDQ) is reliable, valid, responsive, acceptable and feasible as the tool for the assessment of quality of life in Parkinson's disease patients. For these reasons it has been widely adopted and generally considered the industry 'gold standard'. The PDQ is available in the 39-point PDQ-39 or the short form PDQ-8 (8 items). The PDQ-8 contains eight of the original 39 items of the PDQ-39; one item selected from each of the 8 scales.The PDQ-8 provides a reliable measure of overall health status and is ideal for studies in which a shorter questionnaire is preferred. Each item is simply given a 5-point score: 0 (Absent) to 4 (present most of the time). The PDQ-8 score can range from 0 to 32. The higher the PDQ-8 score is, the worse the symptoms are.

    5. Study Description

    Brief Summary
    Among the patients with Parkinson's disease, about 40%~50% will suffer from depression, 40% will suffer from anxiety, and 40%~60% will suffer from sleep disorder. These non-motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease will cause great physical and psychological pain and affect the quality of life seriously. Commonly used therapeutic drugs, such as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) and clonazepam, can cause a variety of side effects, including serotonin syndrome, sexual dysfunction, daytime fatigue, insomnia, residual effects and increased risk of falls. Therefore, a new and more reasonable therapeutic choice should be sought. Agomelatine is a new type of antidepressant with novel mechanism, and can improve sleep structure and circadian rhythm. The aim of this multi-center randomized controlled trial (RCT) is to clarify the role of agomelatine in improving sleep disorders and depression in patients with Parkinson's disease
