Hyposmia in Parkinson’s disease; exploring selective odour loss
Smell loss is a frequent and early manifestation of Parkinson’s disease (PD), serving as a sensitive - albeit nonspecific - clinical biomarker1. The notion that PD causes odour-selective hyposmia has been debated for three decades.

Visual Analog Scale and Olfactory Objective Tests in Hyposmia Patients: Is There a Link? [PDF]
Introduction Olfactory dysfunction (OD) is often a devaluated sensorial affection. The objective evaluation of this dysfunction does not evaluate its compromise in patients' daily life.

Intranasal sodium citrate solution improves olfaction in post-viral hyposmia [PDF]
Background: Calcium plays an integral role in olfactory signal transduction, including feedback inhibition. Sodium citrate acts as a calcium sequestrant and when applied intranasally, reduces free calcium available for feedback inhibition, which should ...

A case series of patients, including a consultant rhinologist, who all experienced a loss of smell associated with confirmed or suspected COVID-19 [PDF]
Background: Non-invasive detection of carriers of COVID-19 virus remains elusive. A decrease in sense of smell appears to be a potential marker of the disease.

Unawareness of hyposmia in patients with idiopathic Parkinson’s disease
BACKGROUND: Loss of olfaction is a hallmark of neurodegenerative disorders such as idiopathic Parkinson’s disease (PD) and it may precede the clinical syndrome of PD by many years. Olfactory bulb is probably the earliest site of pathology in PD.
