Background: The Covid-19 pandemic's potential psychological impact has been widely discussed on the basis of expert opinion and previous experience with emergencies of this type. We conducted a survey of cancer patients to explore more objectively the outbreak's impact on their emotional well-being and quality of life.Methods: Between March 18 and April 4, 2020, at an endocrine cancer center in Rome, Italy, 137 patients were asked to complete an online 6-item questionnaire developed by our staff to explore the emotional effects of the Covid-19 outbreak in Italy (Covid-19 Emotional Impact Survey, C-19EIS). For validation purposes, we also asked participants to complete an online version of the validated Italian translation of the EORTC QLQ-C30 questionnaire. Responses were analyzed in relation to responders' age, sex, and clinical status (advanced/metastatic disease undergoing systemic treatment vs. stable metastatic thyroid cancer in active surveillance vs. low-risk thyroid cancers with no evidence of structural disease during standard follow-up).Results: Response rates were high (51% for the C-19EIS, 44.5% for the EORTC QLQ-C30). Overall C-19EIS scores indicated high concern over the outbreak (median 8/12). Scores were higher in women (8 [IQR 5–9] vs. 6 [IQR 5–8] in men; p = 0.048) and in patients

Structured questionnaire set up to collect data on demographics including age at PD onset and disease duration.
A cohort of 109 PD patients was enrolled at the Neurology Unit of Tor Vergata University Hospital (Rome, Italy). Patients were previously diagnosed according with current diagnostic criteria and followed-up for at least 2 years to avoid misdiagnosis with atypical parkinsonism. All patients had to be contactable via e-mail and able to fill out the forms (demented and severely affected patients, as reported in clinical charts, were not included).
A standard introductive message was transmitted by e-mail or phone to explain the study. Then, a survey was sent by e-mail and returned within 1 week. The study covered the Italian lockdown period between April 20, 2020 and May 2, 2020.
The questionnaire also included motor activity habits before COVID-19 emergency: physiotherapy/rehabilitation practice, sports practice (type and weekly frequency); motor activity habits during lockdown: physiotherapy/rehabilitation practice, physical exercise practice (indoor/outdoor, type of activity); use of TBTs (specifically free web video lessons, web video course organized by institutions/associations, video games, and smartphone applications), previous experience, frequency of current use, opinion on the usefulness; use of wearable devices (eg pedometer); perception of own health during COVID-19 emergency (specifically, we asked: “Do you feel that your global health was worsened or remained stable during the lockdown?”). Three self-administered scales were also included in the survey: the International Physical Activity Questionnaires-Short Form (IPAQ–SF),7,8 a self-reported questionnaire to quantify the intensity of physical activity as metabolic equivalent (MET) min/week; the Parkinson’s Well-Being Map (PWBM), a self-reported score of motor and non-motor symptoms divided into 8 items9 to assess clinical severity; and the Beck Depression Index (BDI) to estimate depression. All responses were transformed in categorical or continuous variables as appropriate for statistical analysis.
