The paper assesses the frequency of dystonia-linked pathogenic variants in Parkinson's disease patients and finds they are present in 0.57% of cases, with GCH1 being the most common gene affected.

This paper analyzes genetic variation in Parkinson's disease across multiple ancestries, revealing ancestry-specific patterns and highlighting the importance of diverse populations in genetic research.

The paper reports genetic findings from a UK-wide study of early-onset and familial Parkinson's disease, identifying pathogenic variants in known PD genes and highlighting the need for further monogenic causes.

The paper outlines the protocol for integrating genetic and clinical data from a global cohort of over 150,000 participants to study the genetic causes of sporadic Parkinson's disease.
