CHEMODNERVATION FOR CERVICAL DYSTONIA: A CLINICAL REVIEW

Khyber Medical University Journal, 2020
Cervical dystonia (CD) is a focal dystonia characterized by involuntary contractions of neck muscles that result in patterned movements and abnormal postures of the head and neck that have a directional quality.

Deep Learning Techniques for Cervical Cancer Diagnosis based on Pathology and Colposcopy Images [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
Cervical cancer is a prevalent disease affecting millions of women worldwide every year. It requires significant attention, as early detection during the precancerous stage provides an opportunity for a cure. The screening and diagnosis of cervical cancer rely on cytology and colposcopy methods. Deep learning, a promising technology in computer vision,

Cervical dystonia: a disorder of the midbrain network for covert attentional orienting.

Frontiers in Neurology, 2014
While the pathogenesis of cervical dystonia remains unknown, recent animal and clinical experimental studies have indicated its probable mechanisms. Abnormal temporal discrimination is a mediational endophenotype of cervical dystonia and informs new ...

Cervical dystonia - improving the effectiveness of botulinum toxin therapy.

Neurologia i Neurochirurgia Polska, 2020
INTRODUCTION Cervical dystonia is the most frequent form of focal dystonia. It is characterised by involuntary muscular contractions resulting in abnormal head/neck and shoulder movements and postures, which can be associated with tremor and pain.

Automatic bony structure segmentation and curvature estimation on ultrasound cervical spine images -- a feasibility study [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
The loss of cervical lordosis is a common degenerative disorder known to be associated with abnormal spinal alignment. In recent years, ultrasound (US) imaging has been widely applied in the assessment of spine deformity and has shown promising results.

Visual compensation in cervical dystonia

Journal of Clinical and Experimental Neuropsychology, 2019
Introduction: Visual-spatial processing can be affected in people with cervical dystonia (CD). These impairments have almost exclusively been observed in laboratory studies, but the impact of visuo-spatial impairments on daily activities is unclear. Here, we investigated how people living with CD visually explore the environment.

The Prevalence of Dystonic Tremor and Tremor Associated with Dystonia in Patients with Cervical Dystonia

Scientific Reports, 2020
The link between dystonia and tremor has been known for decades, but the question of whether they are two separate illnesses or just different manifestations of one disease with the same pathophysiological background remains unanswered.

INTERFAMILIAL POLYMORPHISM OF TYPE 1 DYSTONIA

Alʹmanah Kliničeskoj Mediciny, 2016
Background: The most frequent mutation of the gene TOR1A (DYT1) (9q34), that causes type 1 dystonia (DOPA-unresponsive torsion dystonia) is the deletion c.907-909delGAG in the 5th exon of the gene (303delGlu).

KMT2B-related disorders: expansion of the phenotypic spectrum and long-term efficacy of deep brain stimulation [PDF]

Brain. 2020 Dec 5;143(11):3242-3261
Heterozygous mutations in KMT2B are associated with an early-onset, progressive, and often complex dystonia (DYT28). Key characteristics of typical disease include focal motor features at disease presentation, evolving through a caudocranial pattern into generalized dystonia, with prominent oromandibular, laryngeal, and cervical involvement.

Subthalamic Nucleus Oscillatory Characteristics in Meige, Cervical Dystonia and Generalized Dystonia

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Deep brain stimulation offers a unique opportunity to record neural activity of the basal ganglia. While much work in dystonia has focused on the globus pallidus internus, expanding research to investigate subthalamic nucleus (STN) activity in various dystonia types is critical to provide a comprehensive understanding of dystonia ...
