We aimed to determine whether electroencephalography (EEG) could objectively measure fatigue and to explore the pathophysiology of fatigue in PD.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>We studied 32 de novo PD patients who underwent EEG.

According to our network analysis, brain network efficiency differed by frequency band. Generally, the brain network in the frontal area for theta and delta bands showed greater efficiency, and in the temporal area, the alpha1 band was less efficient in PD patients without fatigue (p < 0.0001, p = 0.0011, and p = 0.0007, respectively, Bonferroni-corrected).</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>Our study suggests that PD patients with fatigue have less efficient networks in the frontal area than PD patients without fatigue.
