While it may sound gross, ear wax could provide an inexpensive way to detection the disease early, before motor impairment ...

Researchers in ACS’ Analytical Chemistry report the initial development of a system that inexpensively screens for Parkinson’s disease from the odors in a person’s ear wax.

New research suggests ear wax odor could serve as an early warning sign for Parkinson's disease, with an AI system showing 94% accuracy in detection through organic compounds.

Could your ear wax tell you if you have Parkinson’s disease? Some 90,000 people are diagnosed with the degenerative neurological condition in the U.S. each year, and annual deaths have surged in ...

Scientists find volatile compounds in ear wax may help detect Parkinson's disease earlier than traditional methods, offering a potential inexpensive screening tool.

Most treatments for Parkinson's disease (PD) only slow disease progression. Early intervention for the neurological disease that worsens over time is therefore critical to optimize care, but that ...
