Tremor Syndromes: An Updated Review
Tremor is the most commonly encountered movement disorder in clinical practice. A wide range of pathologies may manifest with tremor either as a presenting or predominant symptom.

The Rehapiano-Detecting, Measuring, and Analyzing Action Tremor Using Strain Gauges. [PDF]
We have developed a device, the Rehapiano, for the fast and quantitative assessment of action tremor. It uses strain gauges to measure force exerted by individual fingers.

Background: Some patients present an unusual association of both action tremor (AT) and rest tremor (RT) making the differential diagnosis between essential tremor (ET) and Parkinson's disease (PD) difficult.

Treatment of tremors, such as in essential tremor (ET) and Parkinson’s disease (PD) is mostly ineffective. Exact tremor pathomechanisms are unknown and relevant animal models are missing.

A Case of Action-Induced Clonus that Mimicked Action Tremors and was Associated with Cervical Schwannoma [PDF]
Clonus is the rhythmic muscle contraction which usually occurs in patients with lesions involving descending motor pathways. Sometimes, rhythmic oscillation of action induced clonus could be confused to action tremor.

Action tremor in Parkinson's disease. [PDF]
Electromyographic activity of the biceps muscle was examined in 38 parkinsonian patients and 33 normal subjects during (i) rapidly alternating pronation-supination movements (RAM) of the forearm, and (ii) single pronation or supination movements in response to visual (light) or to kinesthetic signals (displacements of the hand). Biceps electromyography

Action tremor of the legs in essential tremor : prevalence, clinical correlates, and comparison with age-matched controls [PDF]
The hallmark feature of essential tremor (ET) is action tremor of the arms. Leg tremor may also occur yet it has not been the central focus of previous studies. Its prevalence has only rarely been reported, its clinical correlates have yet to be explored.

Effects of alprazolam on cortical activity and tremors in patients with essential tremor. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Essential tremor (ET) is characterised by postural and action tremors with a frequency of 4-12 Hz. Previous studies suggest that the tremor activity originates in the cerebello-thalamocortical pathways.

Intention Tremor and Deficits of Sensory Feedback Control in Multiple Sclerosis: a Pilot Study [PDF]
Background Intention tremor and dysmetria are leading causes of upper extremity disability in Multiple Sclerosis (MS). The development of effective therapies to reduce tremor and dysmetria is hampered by insufficient understanding of how the distributed,

How to use pen and paper tasks to aid tremor diagnosis in the clinic [PDF]
When a patient presents with tremor, it can be useful to perform a few simple pen and paper tests. In this article, we explain how to maximise the value of handwriting and of drawing Archimedes spirals and straight lines as clinical assessments.
