Parkinson's disease is a progressive disorder of the nervous system that affects your movement. Though it developes gradually but sometimes starting with a barely noticeable tremor in just one hand.
Parkinson's disease is a progressive disorder of the nervous system that affects your movement. This disease is a movement disorder that progresses slowly. People will first notice a sense of weakness or difficulty walking and stiff muscles. However, others may notice a tremor of the head or hands. Its a progressive disorder and the symptoms gradually worsen. Although Parkinson's disease can't be cured, regular medications may markedly improve your symptoms. Exceptional cases, your doctor may suggest surgery to regulate certain regions of your brain and improve your symptoms.
Parkinson's disease is often defined as a parkinsonian syndrome that is idiopathic i.e. it has no known cause. According to our research, many risks and protective factors have been investigated, however, the clearest evidence is for an increased risk of PD in people exposed to certain pesticides and a reduced risk in tobacco smokers. As a result of our research it has noticed that the pathology of the disease is characterized by the accumulation of a protein called alpha-synuclein into inclusions called Lewy bodies in neurons, and from insufficient formation and activity of dopamine produced in certain neurons within parts of the midbrain.
Our researchers as www.newspsychology.com noticed that Lewy bodies are the pathological hallmark of the idiopathic disorder and distribution of the Lewy bodies throughout the Parkinsonian brain varies from one individual to another. However, the anatomical distribution of the Lewy bodies is often directly related to the expression and degree of the clinical symptoms of each individual. In typical cases diagnosis is mainly based on symptoms with tests such as neuroimaging being used for confirmation.
