Orofacial Drinking Tremor: A Case Series and Literature Review

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Task‐specific orofacial tremor is a rare condition in which rhythmic oscillations of orofacial muscles occur during specific actions. Drinking tremor represents a recurrent pattern in isolated reports, although its phenomenology and underlying mechanisms remain incompletely defined.

Real‐World Patterns of Botulinum Toxin Treatment in Hyperkinetic Movement Disorders: A 9‐Year Nationwide Analysis in France

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Hyperkinetic movement disorders, including dystonia, tremor, and myoclonus, are disabling conditions often managed with botulinum toxin type A (BoNT‐A). Real‐world evidence on treatment patterns remains limited. Objective This nationwide, population‐based study aimed to evaluate trends in BoNT‐A use in France between 2015 and 2023 ...

Botulinum toxins - Cause of botulism and systemic diseases?

, 2005
Toxins of Clostridium botulinum (types A-G) are known as 'neurotoxins', causing the clinically well-known picture of flaccid muscular paralysis. The molecular biological background is the blocking of acetylcholine secretion in neuromuscular junctions by ...

From Disability to Diagnosis: Baseline Findings from the Calgary Functional Movement Disorder Registry

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Functional movement disorder (FMD), a subtype of functional neurological disorder, is a complex neuropsychiatric syndrome characterized by inconsistent and incongruent motor symptoms. Despite its relatively high prevalence, FMD remains associated with delayed diagnosis, significant disability, and limited evidence to guide ...

Efficacy of IncobotulinumtoxinA (BoNT‐A) Injections in Upper Limb Task‐Specific and Position‐Dependent Tremors

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Task‐specific tremors (TST) and position‐dependent tremors (PDT) are rare isolated focal tremors that impair fine motor control with few effective treatment options. Although botulinum neurotoxin (BoNT) is effective in other tremor syndromes, its evidence in these tremor subtypes remains limited.

A Gap Analysis of Deep Brain Stimulation for Childhood‐Onset Movement Disorders

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is an established and increasingly utilized therapy for childhood‐onset movement disorders. However, pediatric DBS poses unique challenges that are not adequately addressed by adult‐derived paradigms. Objective To identify key gaps in the current use of DBS in childhood‐onset movement disorders and to ...

Driving Cerebellar Theta Oscillations Interferes With Voluntary Neck Movements in Cervical Dystonia

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Cervical dystonia (CD) is a movement disorder with a complex pathophysiology, including cerebellar abnormalities. Transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS), a noninvasive neuromodulation technique capable of entraining brain oscillations, can transiently modulate neuronal activity and enhance resonant rhythms.
