For example: if x == 0 replace 0 by 'normal'

A numeric variable cannot contain text. So one element of a vector cannot be the word 'normal', while the remainder remains numeric. To do that you would need to convert a vector to a cell array, but then simple computations on the cell array are much less easy to do.
To do what you explicitly asked is trivial though:
if x == 0
x = 'normal';
end

If UPDRS1997 has 50 values in it, fine, but that code will overwrite x every time so it will have only the value that it has for UPDRS1997(end). Here is a better, more robust, general and flexible way:
pick_year = input('Pick a year: either 1997 or 2013: ')
filename = sprintf('UPDRS%d.mat', pick_year);
if exist(filename, 'file')
s = load(filename)
if pick_year == 1997
vec = s.UPDRS1997;
else
vec = s.UPDRS2013;
end
for k = 1 : length(vec)
if vec(k) == 0
x{k} = 'normal'
elseif vec(k) == 1
x{k} = 'slight'
elseif vec(k) == 2
x{k} = 'mild'
elseif vec(k) == 3
x{k} = 'moderate'
elseif vec(k) == 4
x{k} = 'severe'
end
end
else
message = sprintf('%s does not exist', filename);
uiwait(warndlg(message));
end
In this, the final result (badly named "x") is a cell array of 50 strings. It's not overwriting all the x like you did.
