Antibiotic exposure and risk of Parkinson's disease in finland: A nationwide case‐control study

doi.org/10.1002/mds.27924

?tldr;

Conclusions

Exposure to certain types of oral antibiotics seems to be associated with an elevated risk of PD with a delay that is consistent with the proposed duration of a prodromal period. The pattern of associations supports the hypothesis that effects on gut microbiota could link antibiotics to PD, but further studies are needed to confirm this.
