Introduction

China has the most people with Parkinson disease (PD) in the world and is estimated to have over half of the worldwide PD population. The objective of this study was to analyze the corresponding burden of PD in China for the past decades.

Method

Data on disease burden related to PD in China were retrieved from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) 2019 study.
