Application of multibranch abnormal muscle response monitoring during microvascular decompression for hemifacial spasm

Chinese Journal of Contemporary Neurology and Neurosurgery, 2020
Objective Abnormal muscle response (AMR) is widely used as an indicator of the degree and effect of surgery during microvascular decompression (MVD) for hemifacial spasm (HFS). However, the positive rate of AMR during operation is quite different because

Probabilistic Lesion Mapping to Optimize Thalamotomy Targets for Focal Hand Dystonia

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Focal hand dystonia (FHD) severely impairs task‐specific motor control, yet the optimal surgical target for stereotactic intervention remains uncertain. This study aimed to identify the precise thalamic lesion site associated with symptomatic improvement and to clarify its network connectivity. Methods We retrospectively analyzed 164 patients

Relation between the Persistence of an Abnormal Muscle Response and the Long-Term Clinical Course after Microvascular Decompression for Hemifacial Spasm

Neurologia medico-chirurgica, 2013
Mentalis muscle responses to electrical stimulation of the zygomatic branch of the facial nerve are considered abnormal muscle responses (AMRs) and can be used to monitor the success of decompression in microvascular decompression (MVD) surgery.

High Prevalence of SOD1 Pathogenic Variants in the UK Biobank: Implications for Early Intervention in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective SOD1 is the second most frequently mutated gene in European patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Given the recent authorization of SOD1‐targeted antisense oligonucleotides for SOD1‐ALS, prompt screening for SOD1 mutations in patients with ALS patients is highly recommended.
