Changes of regional cerebral blood flow after deep brain stimulation in cervical dystonia
EJNMMI Research, 2022 Introduction Cervical dystonia is considered as a network disorder affecting various brain regions in recent days. Presumably, deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the internal segment of globus pallidus (GPi) may exert therapeutic effects for cervical ...

Descriptive Epidemiology of Cervical Dystonia
Tremor and Other Hyperkinetic Movements, 2013 Background Cervical dystonia (CD), the most common form of adult onset focal dystonia, has a heterogeneous clinical presentation with variable clinical features, leading to difficulties and delays in diagnosis. Owing to the lack of reviews specifically focusing on the frequency of primary CD in the general population, we performed a systematic ...

Cervical Dystonia Mimics: A Case Series and Review of the Literature
Tremor and Other Hyperkinetic Movements, 2019 Background: Cervical dystonia is mostly idiopathic in nature. However, a small subset of cases are mimics, leading to diagnostic pitfalls. There is paucity of literature on pseudodystonias affecting the cervical region.

Explicit Agency in Patients with Cervical Dystonia: Altered Recognition of Temporal Discrepancies between Motor Actions and Their Feedback. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 BACKGROUND:Abnormalities in the cognitive processing of movement have been demonstrated in patients with dystonia. The sense of agency, which is the experience of initiating and controlling one's own actions, has never before been studied in these ...
