A new mutation in the parkin gene in a patient with atypical autosomal recessive juvenile parkinsonism.

abstract：:Loss of balance and increased fall risk is a common problem associated with aging. Changes in vestibular function occur with aging but the contribution of reduced vestibular otolith function to fall risk remains unknown. We examined a population of 151 healthy individuals (aged 21-93) for both balance (sway measures) ...
