Abstract excerpt

Recent studies delineate substantial genetic components in Parkinson's disease (PD). However, very few studies were performed in Sub-Saharan African populations. Here, we explore the contribution of known PD-causing genes in patients of indigenous Zambian ancestry. We studied thirty-nine Zambian patients, thirty-eight with PD and one with parkinsonian-pyramidal syndrome (18% familial; average onset age 54.9 ±...
