💡It is time to Get Smart!💡

Rather than offering an “Advanced Therapy”, layered with the stigma of advanced disease, we should be offering our patients “Smart Therapies”.

📌Remember the smart nature of the device-assisted therapies for which are dynamic and can be modulated in an on-demand fashion much like other smart technologies that are prevalent in our daily lives, such as smart phones or smart watches.

On World Parkinson's Day, the Journal of Parkinson's Disease (JPD) releases an important hypothesis paper which explains that environmental toxins could in theory result in pathology that passes along the brain-first or body-first pathways, to trigger mechanisms for Parkinson’s disease.

Written by Ray Dorsey and colleagues, the article has been released ahead of the coming JPD issue (release April 23). The news and article can be found here: https://iospress.com/news/on-world-parkinsons-day-a-new-theory-emerges-on-the-diseases-origins-and-spread.

Though questions remain unanswered, studying the interaction of external factors with the nose and the gut may be the pathway towards finding more preventative measures against Parkinson's disease and dementia with Lewy bodies.

Amsterdam, the Netherlands – The nose or the gut? For the past two decades, the scientific community has debated the wellspring of the toxic proteins at the source of Parkinson’s disease. In 2003, a German pathologist, Heiko Braak, MD, first proposed that the disease begins outside the brain. Mo...
