简要总结
Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder after Alzheimer's disease. It is a progressive and disabling disease with significative impact on quality of life. Since it has no cure, available treatment is targeted to improve the symptoms due to a lack of dopamine in the central nervous system. The aim of the study was to see how transcranial photobiomodulation (tPBM) helped patients with Parkinson's disease.
