Abstract excerpt

INTRODUCTION: The Faroe Islands is a geographically isolated population in the North Atlantic with a high prevalence of Parkinson disease (PD). The disease etiology is still unknown, although dietary pollutants are considered a risk factor. The genetic risk underlying disease susceptibility has yet to be elucidated. METHODS: Sequence analysis was performed in genes previously linked with PD in 91 patients and 96...
