The “second‐hit” hypothesis proposes that both a genetic predisposition and an environmental insult—such as peripheral nerve trauma or spinal cord injury—are required for dystonia development. This review explores how neuroinflammation and maladaptive plasticity, triggered by nerve and spinal cord injury, contribute to dystonia pathogenesis.

Distinct Roles of Cerebellar Afferent and Efferent Fiber Tracts in Craniocervical Dystonia
Abstract Background The cerebellum has been widely implicated in the pathogenesis of craniocervical dystonia (CCD). Subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation (STN‐DBS) has emerged as an effective therapy for CCD. However, the roles of cerebellar afferent and efferent pathways in CCD pathogenesis and STN‐DBS treatment remain poorly understood ...

Focused Ultrasound for the Treatment of Circuit and Molecular Pathology in Parkinson's Disease
Abstract Focused ultrasound is rapidly emerging as a novel technology for the development of symptomatic therapies and supporting disease‐modifying treatments for Parkinson's disease (PD). At the forefront of this development is thermoablation using high‐intensity focused ultrasound, an incisionless treatment that has been extensively tested in ...

The ketogenic diet alters microbiome‐metabolome profiles to improve West syndrome therapy
The ketogenic diet alleviates West syndrome by reshaping gut microbiota (increasing Bacteroides, Parabacteroides, and reducing Escherichia and Bifidobacterium), and modulating metabolites—including anticonvulsant lipids (e.g., capric acid), suppressed harmful lipids (e.g., 2‐methylbutyroylcarnitine), and amino acids and analogs (e.g., 3‐sulfinoalanine)—
