Movement retraining for the dysfunctional brain
Journal of Neurology, Neurosurgery & Psychiatry, 2017In their JNNP publication, Nielsen et al 1 present data from a randomised controlled trial of 57 patients with functional (psychogenic) motor disorders, such as limb weakness, gait disorder, tremor and dystonia. They are a leading cause of neurological disability at all ages.

Clinical Electroencephalography, 1988
This report shows that eye movement artifact, either in the form of up-down or side to side movements, can be clearly demonstrated on brain maps by carefully adjusting the gain in order to delineate the distribution of activity on the anterior regions. Clearly circumscribed activity then appears above (up-down) or to the side (side-side) of each eye.

Deep brain stimulationfor movement disorders
Neurological Research, 2004Movement disorders remain the primary indication for the use of intracranial neurostimulation techniques. This review will discuss the history of this technology as well as the mechanisms of action, current clinical indications, and future prospects for the treatment of movement disorders.

Brain potentials associated with movement in traumatic brain injury.
Physical Therapy, 1991Brain potentials may be used to assess the functional abnormalities that underlie impairments of movement. The purpose of this article is to illustrate the usefulness of examining these potentials. In addition to an overview of the topic, the article includes a report of a study demonstrating that there were differences between the brain potentials of ...

Control of Movement by the Brain
1978In attempting an analysis of movement and its control by the brain, it is immediately evident that there are many hierarchical levels. This was appreciated by Sherrington (1906) in his great book The Integrative Action of the Nervous System, where in Chapter 9, “The Physiological Position and Dominance of the Brain,” he recognized the simplest reflexes

Deep Brain Stimulation in Movement Disorders
Seminars in Neurology, 2007Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is used for advanced and medically intractable patients with Parkinson's disease (PD), essential tremor (ET), and dystonia who meet strict criteria after a detailed motor, cognitive, and psychiatric evaluation. The potential targets are the ventral intermediate nucleus (VIM) of the thalamus for tremor, the globus pallidus ...

Deep Brain Stimulation for Movement Disorders
Neurosurgery Clinics of North America, 1998Chronic deep brain stimulation (DBS) is a promising technique for the treatment of movement disorders. Thalamic stimulation is now an established surgical procedure for parkinsonian and essential tremor. Pallidal and subthalamic stimulation are under active investigation as treatments for Parkinson's disease.

Undulating toe movements in brain death*
European Journal of Neurology, 2004For many years, death implied immobility. Nevertheless, there are anecdotal reports of spontaneous or reflex movements (SRMs) in patients with Brain death (BD). The presence of some movements can preclude the diagnosis of BD, and consequently, the possibility of organ donation for transplantation.
