## Abstract Subthalamic nucleus (STN) stimulation improves motor disability and quality of life in patients with advanced Parkinson's disease (PD). Short‐term mortality is low, but little is known about long‐term mortality. We assessed mortality and causes of death in 171 consecutive PD patients tr

## Abstract α‐Synuclein is one of the main components of Lewy bodies, a pathological marker of Parkinson's disease (PD). Certain missense mutations of the α‐synuclein gene cause familial PD, but the role of the gene in sporadic PD is still controversial. We scrutinized polymorphisms of the α‐synucl

## Abstract Missense mutations of the α‐synuclein gene have been reported to explain a few kindreds with autosomal dominant Parkinson's disease (PD). In order to identify mutations in our PD patients, we have screened the coding region and 5′flanking region of the gene. DNA samples from 50 patients
