## Abstract Hyposmia is a common nonmotor feature of Parkinson's disease (PD) and has been variably detected in monogenic Parkinsonisms. To assess olfactory dysfunction in __PINK1__‐related Parkinsonism, we evaluated olfactory detection threshold, odor discrimination, and odor identification in fiv
The phenotypic spectrum of PINK1-associated Parkinsonism was studied in a family with homozygous (n = 4) or heterozygous (n = 3) PINK1 mutations. All homozygous mutation carriers were definitely affected; the heterozygous carriers were asymptomatic but displayed unequivocal signs of probable or poss
Hereditary spastic paraplegias (HSP) constitute a heterogeneous group of neurodegenerative disorders characterized at least by slowly progressive spasticity of the lower limbs. Mutations in REEP1 were recently associated with a pure dominant HSP, SPG31. We sequenced all exons of REEP1 and searched f
