TL;DR: In this article, the α-synuclein was identified as the major component of Lewy bodies, the pathological hallmark of Parkinson's disease, and of glial cell cytoplasmic inclusions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Frequency of levodopa-related dyskinesias and motor fluctuations as estimated from the cumulative literature
TL;DR: The aggregate frequency figures in the existing literature were determined and how clinical series from the early levodopa era, which included patients with longer durations of parkinsonism, compare to more recent series were compared.
Journal ArticleDOI
Epidemiology of focal and generalized dystonia in Rochester, Minnesota.
TL;DR: Investigation in the Rochester, Minnesota, population over the period 1950–1982 found that Torticollis was the most common focal dystonia; essential blepharospasm, oromandibular dySTONia, spasmodic dysphonia, and writer's cramp were less common and had roughly equal incidence and prevalence rates.
Journal ArticleDOI

Matthew J. Farrer,Katrina Gwinn-Hardy,Manfred D. Muenter,Fabienne Wavrant DeVrieze,Richard Crook,Jordi Pérez-Tur,Sarah Lincoln,Demetrius M. Maraganore,Charles H. Adler,Stephanie Newman,Kari MacElwee,Page McCarthy,Carol A. Miller,Cheryl Waters,John Hardy +14 more
TL;DR: Data demonstrate a new locus for Lewy body parkinsonism and suggest that in some circumstances postural tremor can be an alternative phenotype of the samepathogenic mutation as Lewy Body Parkinsonism.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In four generations of a family, 13 members were afflicted with an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by young age at onset, early weight loss, and rapidly progressive dopa‐responsive parkinsonism, followed later by dementia and, in some, by hypotension.
