## Abstract Parkinson's disease (PD) has long been regarded as having a hereditary component. However, three recent twin studies have been interpreted as excluding any significant genetic component in the etiology of PD. In this article, we reexamine these twin studies and argue that such a conclus

A screening questionnaire with high sensitivity for detection of Parkinson's disease would make it easier to identify undiagnosed, yet affected, family members for genetic research. We assessed the validity of a screening questionnaire developed by Duarte et al. [1995: Mov Disord 10:643-649] with re
