Abstract

The aim of this investigation was to compare olfactory functions of patients suffering from Parkinson's disease (PD) and Alzheimer's disease (AD). Olfactory threshold, odor identification ability and odor memory performance were assessed in 21 non-demented PD patients and in 22 AD patients. Both patient groups were impaired in relation to an age-matched control group for the measure of odor identification. AD patients showed a higher olfactory threshold and poorer odor memory performance.

摘要

这项研究的目的是比较帕金森病（PD）患者和阿尔茨海默病（AD）患者的嗅觉功能。对21名非痴呆型PD患者和22名AD患者进行了嗅觉阈值、气味识别能力和气味记忆表现的评估。在气味识别测量方面，与年龄匹配的对照组相比，两个患者组均受损。AD患者表现出更高的嗅觉阈值和更差的气味记忆表现。
