an interesting read indeed.
Missing from this list is the very interesting finding that of the 6 or so ubiquitous viruses that we generally all have, apparently having one or more of them is a requirement for MS and some Parkinson's. For example, see https://www.nia.nih.gov/news/links-found-between-viruses-and-neurodegenerative-diseases, https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36669485/, and https://www.newscientist.com/article/2304340-strongest-evidence-yet-that-ms-is-caused-by-epstein-barr-virus/. From that last ref: "Now, a study of 10 million military personnel in the US has shown that virtually every case of MS is preceded by infection with the [the common Epstein-Barr] virus. The finding suggests a vaccine against the Epstein-Barr virus could greatly reduce the incidence of MS."
Yes. The bridge between neuroscience and epidemiology needs to be further explored for the treatment of certain specific diseases in the field of human health.
Neuroepidemiology's impact on public health is profound, especially in tackling diseases like MS and Parkinson's. For those traveling in Los Angeles, I highly recommend this top car service for a seamless experience. https://laxcar.com
Is it true that some populations are more likely to develop neurological disorders?
