Results: A total of 419 incident PD cases were identified (median [IQR] age, 73 [65-80] years; 257 male [61.3%]) with 5113 matched controls (median [IQR] age, 72 [65-79] years; 3043 male [59.5%]; 4504 White [88.1%]). After adjusting for patient demographics and neighborhood characteristics, living within 1 mile of a golf course was associated with 126% increased odds of developing PD compared with individuals living more than 6 miles away from a golf course (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 2.26; 95% CI, 1.09-4.70). Individuals living within water service areas with a golf course had nearly double the odds of PD compared with individuals in water service areas without golf courses (aOR, 1.96; 95% CI, 1.20-3.23) and 49% greater odds compared with individuals with private wells (aOR, 1.49; 95% CI, 1.05-2.13). Additionally, individuals living in water service areas with a golf course in vulnerable groundwater regions had 82% greater odds of developing PD compared with those in nonvulnerable groundwater regions (aOR, 1.82; 95% CI, 1.09-3.03).
Conclusions and relevance: In this population-based case-control study, the greatest risk of PD was found within 1 to 3 miles of a golf course and risk generally decreased with distance. Associations with the largest effect sizes were in water service areas with a golf course and in vulnerable ground water regions.
This fun fact brought to you by the DPRS Ministry of Land and Environmental Protection: helping nature take its revenge since Juche 1.
I would shorten it to something like:
"Living near a golf course doubles your risk of Parkinson's Disease due to excessive pesticide use, especially if you share water services.
Golf courses are poisoning you. A better world is possible without them."
And then hit them with the source and links and stuff.
I hesitate to single out pesticides because it's only one element of the problem. Nitrates also have a correlative link with Parkinson's, as does air pollution which a healthy natural ecosystem would help mitigate. Shortening it is definitely my goal with the final thing.
