Information on age of onset can easily be incorporated into regressive logistic models by assuming that age of onset follows a logistic distribution. This is analogous to previously proposed models based on the normal distribution. The two distributions, and hence the two types of models, are very s

We analyzed the data on age at onset and CAG size of 319 patients clinically diagnosed with Huntington disease (HD) and 86 presymptomatic subjects recorded by four Italian Centers over the last 14 years. To overcome the problem of different CAG numbers found in each subject, also in the same family,
## Abstract Parkin gene mutations have been detected in families with earlyβonset autosomal recessive parkinsonism. We report a novel heterozygous 40 base pair deletion in exon 3 of the parkin gene that increases the susceptibility of carriers to develop parkinsonism/dystonia and manifests remarkab
Several studies have reported an association between schizophrenia and homozygosity for the MscI restriction site in exon 1 of the D3 dopamine receptor gene, but other studies have failed to find this association. Recent reports have suggested that the association is most salient in male patients wi
