Purkinje Cell Loss in Essential Tremor: Collective Data From 215 Brains Over a 21‐Year Period
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Essential tremor is a highly prevalent movement disorder. Pathological changes observed in essential tremor cerebella center around Purkinje cells and neighboring neuronal populations. Postmortem studies have variably, but not always, shown reduced Purkinje cell counts in essential tremor compared to controls.

Accelerated Progression of Gait Impairment in Parkinson's Disease and REM Sleep Without Atonia
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective People with Parkinson's disease (PD) and rapid eye movement (REM) sleep without atonia (RSWA) often have more severe gait disturbances compared to PD without RSWA. The association between the presence and expression of RSWA and the rate of progression of gait impairment in PD is unknown.

Quantitative Assessment of Upper Limb Ataxia Using a Virtual Reality‐Based Evaluation System
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Cerebellar ataxia impairs coordination and balance, reducing quality of life. Conventional clinical scales, including the Scale for the Assessment and Rating of Ataxia (SARA) and the International Cooperative Ataxia Rating Scale (ICARS), are widely used to assess ataxia but are limited by subjectivity and inter‐rater variability ...
