Scientists hunt for Parkinson's warning signs years before symptoms strike

NCT ID NCT04724941

Summary

This study aims to find early warning signs of Parkinson's disease in people who don't yet have symptoms. Researchers will screen 2,000 adults aged 50-99 who are at higher risk and follow them for five years to see who develops the disease. The goal is to understand how Parkinson's starts and progresses, with special attention to non-movement symptoms and the ethics of telling people about their future disease risk.
