Data are presented as median (interquartile range) unless otherwise indicated. GBA1 PD = monoallelic GBA1 mutation carriers with Parkinson’s disease, GD1 PD = biallelic GBA1 mutation carriers with Parkinson’s disease, H&Y = Hoehn and Yahr, IPD = idiopathic Parkinson’s disease participants without GBA1 mutations, Non-PD carriers: GBA1 mutation carriers without Parkinson’s disease, vs. = versus.
