Genetic Profile and Symptom Pattern Explain Variability of Deep Brain Stimulation Effect in Dystonia

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Bilateral globus pallidus pars interna deep brain stimulation (GPi‐DBS) is a recognized and effective treatment option for drug‐resistant dystonia patients. However, the clinical GPi‐DBS outcomes vary significantly. Herein, we explored the pre‐implant factors affecting GPi‐DBS effectiveness.

Genetic Diversity and Expanded Phenotypes in Dystonia: Insights From Large‐Scale Exome Sequencing

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Dystonia is one of the most prevalent movement disorders, characterized by significant clinical and etiological heterogeneity. Despite considerable heritability (~25%), the etiology in most patients remains elusive. Moreover, understanding correlations between clinical manifestations and genetic variants has become increasingly ...

Isolated head tremor

open access: yesНеврология, нейропсихиатрия, психосоматика
Isolated head tremor (IHT) is a pathological condition characterized by tremor of the head without dystonic posturing or tremor in other parts of the body. In the past, head tremor was commonly referred to as essential tremor because it is very common in

Neural computational modeling reveals a major role of corticospinal gating of central oscillations in the generation of essential tremor

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2017
Essential tremor, also referred to as familial tremor, is an autosomal dominant genetic disease and the most common movement disorder. It typically involves a postural and motor tremor of the hands, head or other part of the body.

Informed consent decision-making in deep brain stimulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) has proved useful for several movement disorders (Parkinson’s disease, essential tremor, dystonia), in which first and/or second line pharmacological treatments were inefficacious.

Paroxysmal Dyskinesias Secondary to HHV‐6A Encephalitis: The First Case Report and Literature Review

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Paroxysmal dyskinesias encompasses a spectrum of conditions marked by intermittent involuntary movements, with paroxysmal kinesigenic dyskinesias being the most common phenotype. Central nervous system infection is a rare cause of paroxysmal dyskinesias.

Improvement of Primary Writing Tremor in Parkinson's Disease with Carbidopa/Levodopa

open access: yesTremor and Other Hyperkinetic Movements, 2015
Background: Primary writing tremor is a task-specific phenomenon that has been described as variants of essential tremor or dystonia. Phenomenology Shown: We describe the case of a 63-year-old female who initially had primary writing tremor, later ...
