Key Points

  • The aim is to evaluate the effectiveness of a new olfactometry system in detecting olfactory deficits associated with Parkinson's disease.
  • Assessment of olfactory function using NOS and OSIT-J tests.
  • Comparison of agreement levels between the two testing systems.
  • Evaluation of the semi-automated workflow efficiency for large-scale screening.
  • NOS indices demonstrated moderate agreement with OSIT-J scores.
  • NOS did not outperform OSIT-J in distinguishing risk levels.
  • The semi-automated workflow of NOS offers practical advantages for olfactory screening.

Abstract

NOS indices showed moderate agreement with OSIT-J. Although NOS did not surpass OSIT-J in discrimination between high- and low-risk individuals, its rapid, semi-automated workflow makes it a practical option for large-scale olfactory screening in prodromal PD.
