abstract = {Traditionally, Parkinson’s Disease (PD) has been depicted in research
as primarily characterized by its motor symptoms.1 The progression of
the disease frequently leads to a range of debilitating manifestations,
encompassing diminished mobility, cognitive decline resulting in
dementia, and autonomic dysfunction. Moreover, individuals affected
by PD exhibit heightened mortality rates when compared with demographically matched cohorts,2 a trend that has been notably exacerbated
in recent years. This is something concerning given the anticipated doubling of PD prevalence by 2050, attributable to global population aging,
with projections estimating a population of 2.1 billion individuals
affected.3 Thus, PD is not only a degenerative, chronic and progressive
disease, but also a deadly one.},
