Exploring environmental factors contributing to Parkinson’s disease in AfrAbian populations

Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a global disease. However, there is a lack of research specifically focused on the AfrAbian population. Climate change, driven mainly by global warming, is linked to detrimental health impacts, including an increased frequency and intensity of heat waves. Neurological dis...

Exploring environmental factors contributing to Parkinson’s disease in AfrAbian populations
description Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a global disease. However, there is a lack of research specifically focused on the AfrAbian population. Climate change, driven mainly by global warming, is linked to detrimental health impacts, including an increased frequency and intensity of heat waves. Neurological diseases, including neurodegenerative syndromes like Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, and motor neuron illnesses, have been increasingly seen and recorded in the scientific literature. Although there is much research demonstrating the growth of neurodegenerative disorders, the relationship between environmental variables such as global warming, air pollution, heavy metals, and pesticides and the higher occurrence of these illnesses is still unknown. The current article primarily aims to examine the relationship between climatic changes, air pollution, pesticides, and heavy metals and the occurrence of PD. Initially, we evaluate the influence of exposure to these variables on the cause or origin of Parkinson’s disease.
