Early Parkinson’s could be detected decades before symptoms with simple blood test

close Video Doctor shares ways to prevent getting Parkinson's disease Rheumatologist Dr. Mahsa Tehrani shares strategies for preventing what a new study projects will be a prevalence of Parkinson's disease on 'America Reports.' NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! A new study from Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden, along with Oslo University Hospital in Norway, may have discovered a way to detect biomarkers of Parkinsons disease in the blood up to decades earlier. In the very early stages of the disease, the body goes through changes related to DNA repair and stress in cells. These changes leave detectable clues in the blood before major brain damage occurs, according to a press release for the study.This could allow for early detection of Parkinson's, when treatments might have a better chance of slowing or preventing serious damage. NEW VITAMIN COMPOUND SHOWS PROMISE FOR REVERSING ALZHEIMER'S DAMAGE TO THE BRAIN The processes of DNA repair and cellular stress response can occur for up to 20 years in Parkinsons patients before motor symptoms fully develop, according to the researchers. The team used machine learning to discover patterns linked to these processes, which were not found in healthy individuals or patients who were already diagnosed with Parkinsons. European researchers discovered a way to detect early Parkinsons disease via a blood test.

Everything That Happens in the Melania Trump Documentary

Multiple news sources report that President Trump's Treasury Secretary, Scott Bessent, faces potential repercussions if Trump is dissatisfied with his pick for Federal Reserve chair, Kevin M. Warsh, whose dovish stance on interest rates contradicts his past criticisms of economic stimulus and raises concerns about his true economic beliefs and alignment with Trump's populist agenda. Warsh's selection, despite Bessent leading the vetting process, could haunt both Bessent and Trump if Warsh's policies deviate from expectations.

Demond Wilson, Lamont on ‘Sanford and Son,’ Dies at 79

Walter Thompson-Hernández's "If I Go Will They Miss Me," a Sundance discovery drawing comparisons to "Killer of Sheep" and "Beasts of the Southern Wild," offers a unique perspective on growing up in Watts, Los Angeles, focusing on the dreams and aspirations of a 12-year-old boy rather than the typical narratives of crime and poverty. This film, as reported by multiple sources, aims to establish a new cinematic language for representing the community, rejecting condescending portrayals and instead giving its subjects "wings."

Israeli strikes kill 23 Palestinians as Gaza ceasefire inches forward

Multiple news sources report that the United States is in danger of losing its measles elimination status due to ongoing outbreaks, particularly a rapidly spreading one in South Carolina that has already surpassed the case count of a previous outbreak in Texas. This situation, exacerbated by factors such as declining confidence in vaccines, puts the U.S.'s ability to contain measles to the test, with the Pan American Health Organization potentially revoking the elimination designation if continuous transmission chains persist beyond January 2025.
