Air pollution aggravates Parkinson's disease: study

Exposure to air pollution increases risk of aggravating Parkinson's disease and may cause neurological disease progression, a study showed Friday.According to the study by Kim Ho at Seoul National University, patients with the neurodegenerative disease are more likely to visit emergency rooms during days with high levels of air-pollutant particles.Data for the study were drawn from 1 million cohort samples of South Koreans provided by the National Health Insurance Service between 2002 and 2013.The researchers examined the association of short-term exposure to air-pollutant particles, including nitrogen dioxide (NO2), sulfur dioxide (SO2), ozone (O3) and carbon monoxide (CO), with Parkinson's disease."Parkinson's disease aggravation cases were defined as emergency hospital admissions for primarily diagnosed Parkinson's disease," the researchers said in a paper.The team concluded that it has found 77 emergency admission cases with primarily diagnosed Parkinson's disease and 314 emergency admission cases with Parkinson's disease as a primary or an accessory diagnosis."Air pollution has
