What is Parkinson's disease

First, Parkinson's disease, also known as "tremor paralysis", is a degenerative disease of the central nervous system. It is mainly due to the decrease of dopamine synthesis and inhibition of acetylcholine function after pathological changes in the cells in the substantia nigra of the midbrain region, so the stimulating effect of acetylcholine is relatively enhanced. The imbalance between the two results in "tremor paralysis".

Second, the cause of degeneration and necrosis of substantia nigra cells in Parkinson's disease is still unclear, which may be related to genetic and environmental factors. Some scholars believe that inadequate intake of protein, fruits, dairy products, alcoholism, trauma, overwork and some mental factors may be the risk factors of disease.

Second: Parkinson's disease, also known as idiopathic Parkinson's disease, is a common degenerative disease of the nervous system in middle-aged and elderly people, and is also the most common extrapyramidal disease in middle-aged and elderly people. The prevalence rate of people over 65 years old is 1000 / 100000. With the increase of age, men are slightly more than women. The main clinical features of the disease are static tremor, bradycardia and hypokinesia.
