Vagus Nerve Stimulation in Movement Disorders, from Principles to a Systematic Review of Evidence
Abstract Background The vagus nerve (VN), the principal component of the parasympathetic branch of the autonomic nervous system (ANS), mediates bidirec communication between the central nervous system (CNS) and peripheral organs. Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS), delivered through invasive (iVNS) or non‐invasive (transcutaneous cervical [tcVNS] and ...

Abstract Background Functional dystonia (FD) is one of the most diagnostically challenging functional movement disorders. Phenomenological features often lack specificity, as many are also observed in idiopathic dystonia (ID) and validated biomarkers to distinguish FD from ID are currently unavailable Objective To investigate potential differences in ...

ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims To study the association of risk factors with axonal degeneration, based on below‐threshold sural nerve amplitudes, as a proxy for distal symmetric polyneuropathy (DSP). In particular, to assess the differential contribution of risk factors in diabetes status subgroups.

Sertraline‐Associated Riboflavin‐Responsive Lipid Storage Myopathy: Report of Two Case
Sertraline exposure can lead to an acquired riboflavin‐responsive multiple acyl‐CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (MADD). In patients with this acquired form of MADD, riboflavin supplementation can even lead to full clinical recovery and marked serological recovery before discontinuation of sertraline.

MRI of Neurogenic Human Motor Units Following Poliomyelitis
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Surviving motor units in neurogenic diseases demonstrate collateral reinnervation. Scanning electromyography (EMG) reveals normal motor unit corridor length, but with “silent regions,” suggesting that reinnervation does not result in increased motor unit size but may increase motor unit complexity.
