Do parameters in URL cause duplicate content penalties?

I have a product page that I link to from articles on my site. I test different text and page elements in the article, and to track the clicks by appending a query string parameter to the product page URL.

The product page Page Rank dropped to zero. I don't fret over PR too much, but PR0 is concerning. It just dawned on me that the parameters might be the cause.

Is there a definitive guide on this?
