Knowledge about Essential Tremor: A Study of Essential Tremor Families

Frontiers in Neurology, 2018
BackgroundEssential tremor (ET) is among the most common neurological diseases and it often runs in families. How knowledgeable ET patients and their families are about their disease has been the subject of surprisingly little scholarship.MethodsTo fill ...

Highly Repeatable Fibrous Crack-Based Strain Sensor for Multichannel Continuous Tremor Monitoring in Parkinson's Disease and Essential Tremor. [PDF]

Adv Sci (Weinh)
This study proposes a patch‐type tremor monitoring system based on high‐repeatable fibrous crack‐based strain sensor, capable of simultaneously measuring tremor in multiple locations such as thumb, index, and wrist. Through clinical trials involving Parkinson's disease and essential tremor patients, the proposed system demonstrates its potential as a ...

Effect of mental fatigue on induced tremor in human knee extensors [PDF]

, 2014
In this study, the effects of mental fatigue on mechanically induced tremor at both a low (3-6Hz) and high (8-12Hz) frequency were investigated. The two distinct tremor frequencies were evoked using two springs of different stiffness, during 20s ...

Postural and intention tremors: Detailed clinical study of essential tremor vs. Parkinson’s disease

Frontiers in Neurology, 2013
Background: An estimated 30-50% of essential tremor diagnoses are incorrect, and the true diagnosis in those patients is often Parkinson’s disease or other tremor disorders.

Pharmacological characterization of nicotine-induced tremor: Responses to anti-tremor and anti-epileptic agents

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2018
We previously showed that nicotine evoked kinetic tremor by activating the inferior olive, which is implicated in the pathogenesis of essential tremor, via α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptors.

Inverse dynamics modelling of upper limb tremor, with cross-correlation analysis. [PDF]

, 2014
A method to characterise upper-limb tremor using inverse dynamics modelling in combination with cross-correlation analyses is presented. A 15 degree-of-freedom inverse dynamics model is used to estimate the joint torques required to produce the measured ...

Treatment with Botulinum Neurotoxin Improves Activities of Daily Living and Quality of Life in Patients with Upper Limb Tremor

Tremor and Other Hyperkinetic Movements, 2019
Background: Botulinum neurotoxin’s degree of effectiveness on upper limb tremor is subject to debate; although this treatment reduces the tremor’s amplitude, a clear functional benefit has not been demonstrated.
