Investigating voice as a biomarker for leucine-rich repeat kinase 2-associated Parkinson’s disease

Abstract:

We investigate the potential association between leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) mutations and voice. Sustained phonations (‘aaah’ sounds) were recorded from 7 individuals with LRRK2-associated Parkinson’s disease (PD), 17 participants with idiopathic PD (iPD), 20 non-manifesting LRRK2-mutation carriers, 25 related non-carriers, and 26 controls. In distinguishing LRRK2-associated PD and iPD, the mean sensitivity was 95.4% (SD 17.8%) and mean specificity was 89.6% (SD 26.5%). Voice featur...
