Six odorants selected from wine-tasting kit Not sensitive to smoking or sex Did differentiate between complainers and noncomplainers of smell dysfunction 0.79 correlation reported with UPSIT R scores, but spurious as a result of score distributions Based on detecting alcohol pads at measured distances from nose Potential confound from trigeminal stimulation Uses ruler and alcohol wipes that are commercially available Screening test based on spraying smell solutions into the oral cavity for retronasal evaluation and orthonasal comparisons with bottled solutions No normative data Normosmics outperformed hyposmics and anosmics Selected 12 odors from 16 on the basis of being correctly identified by 70% of > 1000 patients Statistically differentiated between normosmics, hyposmics, and anosmics but significant overlap between hyposmics and the other two groups Scoreof ≤ 6 highly suggestive of some OD May take > 4minutes A very rapid 4-alternative forced-choice screening test Has been employed in a number of research studies and has been found to differentiate between AD and major affective disorder (depression) Rated intensity of 3 concentrations of vanilla and lemon aromas on a 9-point intensity scale These ratings, unlike B-SIT and ETOC odor detection scores, did not differentiate between normosmic and hyposmic groups, but did differentiate anosmics from normosmics Ratings fell on a different principal component than the other two, as observed by others 1679
