Study says inflammation seen in earliest stages of Parkinson’s disease, and it is different between men and women

The findings, from researchers at the Alabama Udall Center at the University of Alabama at Birmingham, were published April 13 in npj Parkinson’s Disease, part of the Nature Partner Journal series in partnership with the Parkinson’s Foundation.
