The role of pallidum in the neural integrator model of cervical dystonia
Dystonia is the third most common movement disorder affecting three million people worldwide. Cervical dystonia is the most common form of dystonia. Despite common prevalence the pathophysiology of cervical dystonia is unclear.

Dystonia: opportunities to gain insights into underlying pathophysiological mechanisms [PDF]
Dystonia is one of the most common movement disorders, a core component of the isolated and combined dystonias as well as contributing to the motor phenotype of several neurodegenerative movement disorders, such as Parkinson’s disease and Huntington’s ...

Abstract Background Perinatal hypoxic–ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) is a severe condition resulting from impaired oxygen delivery to the developing brain, often leading to both motor deficits and dystonia‐dyskinetic syndromes (DDS). In selected cases, deep brain stimulation of the globus pallidus internus (GPi‐DBS) may provide a therapeutic option ...

The differential diagnosis of Huntington's disease-like syndromes: 'red flags' for the clinician [PDF]
A growing number of progressive heredodegenerative conditions mimic the presentation of Huntington's disease (HD). Differentiating among these HD-like syndromes is necessary when a patient with a combination of movement disorders, cognitive decline ...

Dystonia: sparse synapses for D2 receptors in striatum of a DYT1 knock-out mouse model [PDF]
Dystonia pathophysiology has been partly linked to downregulation and dysfunction of dopamine D2 receptors in striatum. We aimed to investigate the possible morpho-structural correlates of D2 receptor downregulation in the striatum of a DYT1 Tor1a mouse ...

A Novel Presentation of an Ocular Geste Antagoniste in Cervical Dystonia: A Case Report
Background: A geste antagoniste or sensory trick is a well described phenomenon associated with primary cervical dystonia. Craniocervical tactile stimulation or stereotyped limb movements allow patients to transiently ameliorate dystonic activation ...

Descriptive Epidemiology of Cervical Dystonia
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 ...
