Cranial functional (psychogenic) movement disorders [PDF]

, 2015
Functional (psychogenic) neurological symptoms are frequently encountered in neurological practice. Cranial movement disorders—affecting the eyes, face, jaw, tongue, or palate—are an under-recognised feature of patients with functional symptoms. They can

Psychogenic Movement Disorders [PDF]

CONTINUUM: Lifelong Learning in Neurology, 2013
This review describes the main clinical features of psychogenic (functional) movement disorders and reports recent advances in diagnosis, pathophysiology, and treatment.The terminology and definition of patients with psychogenic movement disorders remain subjects of controversy; the term "functional" has been used more frequently in the literature in ...

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

, 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.

Movement Disorders and Neuromodulation [PDF]

Neurology Research International, 2012
Movement disorders are neurological conditions affecting speed, fluency, quality, and ease of movement. Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is used to treat advanced Parkinson’s disease, essential tremor, and dystonia. Possible target sites for DBS include the ventral intermediate nucleus of the thalamus, the globus pallidus internus, and the subthalamic ...

Network topology drives population temporal variability in experimental habitat networks

Population Ecology, EarlyView.
Habitat patches connected by dispersal pathways form habitat networks. We explored how network topology affects population outcomes in laboratory experiments using a model species (Daphnia carinata). Central habitat nodes in complex lattice networks exhibited lower temporal variability in population sizes, suggesting they support more stable ...

Melatonin for rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder in Parkinson's disease : a randomised controlled trial [PDF]

, 2019
Background Melatonin may reduce REM-sleep behavior disorder (RBD) symptoms in Parkinson's disease (PD), though robust clinical trials are lacking. Objective To assess the efficacy of prolonged-release (PR) melatonin for RBD in PD.

Dendritic cells steering antigen and leukocyte traffic in lymph nodes

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Dendritic cells are key players in the activation of T cells and their commitment to effector function. In this In a Nutshell Review, we will discuss how dendritic cells guide the trafficking of antigen and leukocytes in the lymph node, thus influencing T‐cell activation processes. Dendritic cells (DCs) play a central role in initiating and shaping the

Method of Tremor Levodopa Responsiveness Assessment and Its Correlation With Clinical Factors in Parkinson’s Disease: Outcomes of the Acute Levodopa Challenge Test

Parkinson's Disease
Conclusions: The aLR, rather than the %LR, is a more effective assessment method for evaluating the efficacy of levodopa for treating tremors in PD.

Brittle Dyskinesia Following STN but not GPi Deep Brain Stimulation

Tremor and Other Hyperkinetic Movements, 2014
Background: The aim was to describe the prevalence and characteristics of difficult to manage dyskinesia associated with subthalamic nucleus (STN) deep brain stimulation (DBS).
