Plain-Language Summary
The goal is to find out whether people who work with pesticides are more likely to have preclinical or prodromal signs of Parkinson's, so we can better understand pesticide-related Parkinsonism risk. The team will compare farmers with occupational pesticide exposure to people with no work exposure, screening both groups for early Parkinson's signs and markers to estimate how common these early stages are after pesticide exposure. About 260 adults aged 45 to 55 are being enrolled, with cases being farmers exposed to pesticides, controls having no work exposure, and people excluded if they do not consent or have other significant neurological conditions.
