The researchers were based on interviews with 403 Parkinson's patients and 405 healthy people in British Columbia. At the same time, researchers also found that cases of red measles like children are less likely to suffer from this syndrome.

According to Anne Harris, the study's author said, "There have not been any treatments or programs to prevent Parkinson's disease, partly because we still do not understand the disease caused by some people but not happening in other people ".

At the same time, Harris researcher added that epidemiological research will work well in developing effective prevention strategies.

Parkinson's disease is a disorder that causes the central nervous system to be manifested in states such as sluggishness, tremor, numbness and imbalance at the terminal stage.

Although, there are a number of cases of genetic origin but the cause of this disease cannot be explained. According to some researchers, the cause of the disease may be due to repeated head injuries, exposure to viruses or chemical compounds.
