Description
Saleha Mahomed-Kola, Jennifer Watermeyer, and Aline Ferreira-Correia review health literacy in people with Parkinson's disease in 2026. Managing this disease demands steady grasp of complex facts. Sixteen studies from across the world met the entry rules. Four themes organize the findings: knowledge, resources, caregiver literacy, and access.
Most studies came from wealthy nations, leaving poorer regions thinly covered. Literacy levels varied by region and information source. Caregiver literacy shaped care quality and strain. False hopes, like belief in a cure, persisted in many places. Income and schooling gaps blocked good management. The authors urge teaching programs that fix false beliefs. Digital tools for self care get their backing too.
