Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a common neurodegenerative disorder characterized by both motor and non-motor symptoms, with mitochondrial dysfunction being a key pathological feature. Alterations in mitochondrial DNA copy number (mtDNA-CN) have been implicated in PD, but the relationship remains controversial. This study aimed to investigate the association between mtDNA-CN and PD through a meta-analysis...
