Confirmation of the association between LRRK2 R1628P variant and susceptibility to Parkinson's disease in the Thai population

We confirm the association between p.R1628P and risk of developing PD in the appropriated sample-sized cohort. Certain LRRK2 variants appear to be generally distributed among East Asians, however, in widely different frequencies. In order to study role of such variants in PD, it should be carefully estimated the appropriate sample size.
