A Chinese study found four compounds in ear wax that could reliably signal Parkinson’s—and AI made the diagnosis.

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

A novel screening method for Parkinson’s disease (PD) analyzes the volatile compounds in ear wax to detect early signs of the ...

Most of us don’t give a second thought to earwax. It’s just one of those weird body things we clean and forget about. But ...

The resulting AIO-based screening model categorized with 94% accuracy ear wax samples from people with and without PD. The AIO system, the researchers say, could be used as a first-line screening tool ...
