Analysis of factors associated with brittle response in patients with Parkinson's disease.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:To develop, test, and iterate a comprehensive neuromuscular targeted gene panel in a national referral center. METHODS:We designed two iterations of a comprehensive targeted gene panel for neuromuscular disorders. Version 1 included 336 genes, which was increased to 464 genes in Version 2. Both panels used T...
