Targeting olfactory receptors improves detection thresholds and training for patients with olfactory loss, suggesting new diagnostic approaches.
Olfactory testing and training constitute important foundations of diagnostic and therapeutic management of patients presenting with olfactory loss. The precise repertoire of human olfactory receptors engaged by standard odorants in olfactory detection thresholds, identification tests, and training is surprisingly under-investigated, limiting our understanding of these methods.
