Abstract
Nitric oxide is a biologic messenger molecule involved in a diverse range of physiologic processes. An exon 22 inducible nitric oxide synthase genotype has recently been reported to be protective against Parkinson disease in a European cohort. The authors confirm the protective effect of this genotype (OR = 0.5, 95% CI 0.27 to 0.93) in an independent Finnish case-control series.
