Risks
Patient & Prescribing Data
Patients clinically diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease and their healthy spouses
No drug washout performed; samples collected before first daily medication
Clinical Best Practices
Utilize matched-pair design to control for environmental and lifestyle factors
Employ untargeted LC–MS metabolomics for comprehensive metabolite profiling
Ensure ethical approval and informed consent for participant involvement
