Abstract: | Odor identification was assessed in 20 Huntington's disease (HD) patients, 20 normal adults with the genetic mutation that causes HD, and 20 mutation-negative adults. The University of Pennsylvania Smell Identification Test (UPSIT) revealed substantial odor identification deficits only in HD patients. |
