NCT ID NCT07262658

Summary

This study looked at why Hispanic people with Parkinson's disease may experience more thinking and memory problems than non-Hispanic white patients. Researchers examined 40 people with Parkinson's to understand if heart-related health issues like diabetes, high blood pressure, and obesity play a role. The study collected health information and thinking tests but did not test any treatments.
