Hyposmia in progressive supranuclear palsy

Movement Disorders, 2010
AbstractPrevious studies suggested that olfaction is normal in progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP). We applied the University of Pennsylvania Smell Identification Test (UPSIT) to 36 patients with PSP who scored more than 18 on the Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE), 140 patients with nondemented Parkinson's disease (PD) and 126 controls.

The ENGENE-PSP case-control study determined various PSP risk factors including whether hypertension preceded PSP onset.Incident PSP cases per NINDS-PSP criteria and age-, sex-, race- matched controls were recruited from similar ...

Tremor in progressive supranuclear palsy

Acta Neurologica Scandinavica, 1989
Reports of tremor in progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) have been infrequent; some authors indicate that tremor is never seen in PSP. Five patients with PSP and tremor are presented. Our series of cases and those reviewed in the literature suggest that tremor occurs in 12-16% of PSP cases. The rest tremor observed in 3 of our cases differed from the "
