Functional profiling of STXBP1 missense variants using a novel dual‐readout fluorometric assay

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective STXBP1‐related disorders (STXBP1‐RD) are among the most common genetic neurodevelopmental disorders, marked by early onset epilepsy, global developmental delay, and motor impairments. Many missense variants remain uncharacterized, limiting accurate variant interpretation and hindering development of precision therapies.

Analysis of MEP parameters in patients with post stroke spasticity in relation with rTMS therapy

open access: yesActa Neurologica Belgica
Spasticity is a common complication of stroke limiting patient’s daily activities. Transcranial magnetic stimulation is a painless and non-invasive method that can potentially reduce post-stroke spasticity (PSS).

The Onset and Frequency of Spasticity After First Ever Stroke

open access: yes, 2018
Spasticity is one of the most important causes of disability after stroke. In spite of high incidence of spasticity, little is known about the relationship between the occurrence and the development of spasticity.

Advanced quantitative estimation methods for spasticity: a literature review

open access: yesJournal of International Medical Research, 2020
Post-stroke spasticity seriously affects patients’ quality of life. Spasticity is considered to involve both neural and non-neural factors. Current clinical scales, such as the Modified Ashworth Scale and the Modified Tardieu Scale, lack reliability and ...

Expert consensus on neuro‐musculoskeletal functional reconstruction for post‐stroke spastic hemiplegia

open access: yesIbrain, EarlyView.
This expert consensus proposes a patient‐centered pathway for functional reconstruction after post‐stroke spastic hemiplegia: “patient goal–pathophysiologic component–treatment target–functional reassessment.” Treatment selection and sequencing across motor retraining, brain–computer interfaces, peripheral nerve surgery, and tendon/soft‐tissue ...

Data‐Driven Insights into Hyperkinetic Disorders in Neurodevelopmental Syndromes and Epileptic Encephalopathies

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Childhood‐onset hyperkinetic movement disorders occur in a range of genetic conditions. Recently, there has been an increase in recognition of hyperkinetic movement disorders, mainly dystonia, chorea and dyskinesia, with monogenic conditions associated with neurodevelopmental delay (NDD) and also with developmental and epileptic ...

The early use of botulinum toxin in post-stroke spasticity: study protocol for a randomised controlled trial [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
BACKGROUND: Patients surviving stroke but who have significant impairment of function in the affected arm are at more risk of developing pain, stiffness and contractures. The abnormal muscle activity, associated with post-stroke spasticity, is thought to

Which brain lesions produce spasticity? An observational study on 45 stroke patients.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
Spasticity is an important barrier that can hinder the restoration of function in stroke patients. Although several studies have attempted to elucidate the relationship between brain lesions and spasticity, the effects of specific brain lesions on the ...

The predictive nature of diagnostic nerve blocks for lower extremity spasticity management with botulinum toxin and neurotomy: A systematic review

open access: yesPM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction/Objective Diagnostic nerve blocks (DNBs) involve the injection of anesthetic around peripheral nerves to temporarily reduce motor tone. Although they are used clinically to inform spasticity treatment with neurotomy and chemodenervation, there is little research exploring the predictive nature of DNBs.
