A comparative analysis of proximal obturator nerve block versus general anesthesia in transurethral resection of bladder tumor: Prospective exploratory study [PDF]
Introduction: Transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) harbors the risk of intraoperative obturator jerks in lateral wall tumors due to obturator nerve stimulation, resulting in bladder perforation.

Recognizing pediatric febrile myoclonus: a video-documented case report and review of the current literature [PDF]
Febrile myoclonus (FM) is a benign condition characterized by the sudden onset of generalized, multifocal, or segmental jerks during fever, without signs of central nervous system infections, resolving as the temperature elevation subsides.

Myoclonus is a sudden, involuntary jerking of a muscle or a group of muscles. Myoclonus may present in form of a pattern or, sporadically and infrequently. It is usually associated with neurological disorders such as epilepsy, multiple sclerosis or infections, and tumors of the central nervous system.

The onset of functional movement disorders after COVID-19: A case series
Patients with post-acute sequelae after coronavirus disease (COVID-19) report a variety of non-specific neurological complications (e.g., myoclonus, limb weakness). In particular, they manifest scenarios as medically unexplained symptoms and are known as

MECHANISM OF GEOMAGNETIC JERKS [PDF]
Mechanism of geomagnetic jerks evident from the model of the hot Earth magnetic field is discussed here. Similar in their principle, reversals, excursions and jerks result from auto adjusting of temperature of the phase change (PC) “evaporation ...

Axial jerks: a clinical spectrum ranging from propriospinal to psychogenic myoclonus [PDF]
Propriospinal myoclonus (PSM) is a rare disorder with repetitive flexor, arrhythmic jerks of the trunk, hips and knees. Its generation is presumed to relay in the spinal cord.
