Publications
Genetic modification of the association of paraquat and Parkinson's diseaseSamuel M Goldman
The Parkinson s Institute, Sunnyvale, California 94085, USA
Mov Disord 27:1652-8. 2012..GSTT1*0 is common and could potentially identify a large subpopulation at high risk of PD from oxidative stressors such as paraquat...
Solvent exposures and Parkinson disease risk in twinsSamuel M Goldman
The Parkinson s Institute, 675 Almanor Avenue, Sunnyvale, CA 94085, USA
Ann Neurol 71:776-84. 2012..We tested the hypothesis that exposure to specific solvents is associated with PD risk using a discordant twin pair design...
Occupation and parkinsonism in three movement disorders clinicsS M Goldman
The University of California, San Francisco, CA, USA
Neurology 65:1430-5. 2005..The aim of the present study was to investigate occupational associations with PD or parkinsonism drawing from three different movement disorders clinics...
Head injury and Parkinson's disease risk in twinsSamuel M Goldman
The Parkinson s Institute, Sunnyvale, CA 94089, USA
Ann Neurol 60:65-72. 2006..Twin studies circumvent some of these problems, because twins are genetically and environmentally much more similar than typical cases and control subjects...
Head injury, α-synuclein Rep1, and Parkinson's diseaseSamuel M Goldman
The Parkinson s Institute, Sunnyvale, CA 94085, USA
Ann Neurol 71:40-8. 2012..To test the hypothesis that variability in SNCA Rep1, a polymorphic dinucleotide microsatellite in the promoter region of the gene encoding α-synuclein, modifies the association between head injury and Parkinson's disease (PD) risk...
Rotenone, paraquat, and Parkinson's diseaseCaroline M Tanner
The Parkinson s Institute, Sunnyvale, California 94085, USA
Environ Health Perspect 119:866-72. 2011..Certain pesticides may affect these mechanisms, but no pesticide has been definitively associated with PD in humans...
Exploring the electrocardiogram as a potential tool to screen for premotor Parkinson's diseaseRuksana Azhu Valappil
Clinical Research Department, The Parkinson s Institute and Clinical Center, Sunnyvale, California, USA
Mov Disord 25:2296-303. 2010..Cardiac autonomic dysfunction is also impaired in PD, suggesting that impaired HRV may be an early sign of PD. HRV measured by routine electrocardiograms could be used to screen for Lewy body disorders such as PD...
