Yes.

In my opinion the best is:

Neuroepidemiology. 2010;34(3):143-51. doi: 10.1159/000275491. Epub 2010 Jan 15.

Geographic and ethnic variation in Parkinson disease: a population-based study of US Medicare beneficiaries.

Wright Willis A, Evanoff BA, Lian M, Criswell SR, Racette BA.

The neurotalk Parkinson's forum has threads on other areas, including Spain and England.
