The human sense of smell is often analyzed as being composed of three main components comprising olfactory threshold, odor discrimination and the ability to identify odors. A relevant distinction of the three components and their differential changes...

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a common neurodegenerative disorder characterized by disabling motor and non-motor symptoms. Idiopathic hyposmia (IH), a reduced olfactory sensitivity, is a preclinical marker for the pathology and affects >95% of PD patie...
A right-left dichotomy of olfactory processes has been recognized on several levels of the perception or processing of olfactory input. On a clinical level, the lateralization of components of human olfaction is contrasted by the predominantly birhin...
BACKGROUND: Chemosensory loss is a symptom of Parkinson's disease starting already at preclinical stages. Their appearance without an identifiable etiology therefore indicates a possible early symptom of Parkinson's disease. Supervised machine-learni...
BACKGROUND: Olfactory dysfunction (OD) is an early symptom of Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, olfactory testing is not commonly performed to test OD in the setting of AD.
Viral rhinitis contributes significantly to olfactory dysfunction, but it is unclear how many patients have other chemosensory symptoms in addition to olfactory loss. This was addressed in the present reanalysis of data previously published in Pelleg...
OBJECTIVE: We sought to identify an abbreviated test of impaired olfaction amenable for use in busy clinical environments in prodromal (isolated REM sleep behavior disorder [iRBD]) and manifest Parkinson disease (PD).

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Olfaction is an early marker of neurodegenerative disease. Standard olfactory function is essential due to the importance of olfaction in human life. The psychophysical evaluation assesses the olfactory function commonly. It i...
To construct a prediction model of olfactory dysfunction after transnasal sellar pituitary tumor resection based on machine learning algorithms. A cross-sectional study was conducted. From January to December 2022, 158 patients underwent transnasal s...
BACKGROUND: Smell disorders are commonly reported with COVID-19 infection. The smell-related issues associated with COVID-19 may be prolonged, even after the respiratory symptoms are resolved. These smell dysfunctions can range from anosmia (complete...
