New Delhi, March 06, 2025.
More than 2.5 crore people in the world could be living with Parkinson’s disease by 2050, largely driven by an ageing population, according to a study.
Researchers, including those from the Capital Medical University, China, said the projected numbers are a 112 per cent increase from cases in 2021.
Further, cases of the neurological disorder from South Asia are predicted to be the second highest at 68 lakh, following East Asia (over 1 crore), the findings, published in The British Medical Journal, suggested.
