Concordance for Parkinson's disease in twins: A 20‐year update

20 Feb 2019

Abstract excerpt

During the 1990s, we estimated the genetic contribution to Parkinson's disease risk in a large, population-based twin registry. Because many unaffected twins were still alive, previous concordance estimates were based on incomplete information. Ninety-five percent of twins are now deceased. Here, we update concordance and heritability through 2015 using National Death Index data. In total, we identified 30...
