Finite Element Analysis of Upper Airway in Ansa Cervicalis Stimulation for Obstructive Sleep Apnea

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
We developed a subject‐specific FE model to investigate how ACS stabilizes the upper airway in OSA. Simulations demonstrate that caudal traction applied through the hyolaryngeal complex produces coordinated multilevel airway stabilization, with pronounced effects at the retropalatal and retro‐epiglottic regions under physiologic loading.

Gait Alterations Due to DCC Gene Variants in Individuals with Congenital Mirror Movements

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Congenital Mirror Movement Syndrome (CMMS) involves involuntary movements on one side of the body while voluntary movements are performed on the other side. They disrupt left–right coordination and can be caused by a pathogenic variant in the DCC gene.

Mind the Gap: Predictors of Osteoporosis Treatment Following Fragility Fracture in Parkinsonism

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Fracture risk is increased in Parkinson's yet this risk is often not addressed. Objectives Our objective was to study the extent to which osteoporosis was treated, and predictors of treatment in a large representative cohort with parkinsonism.

From Disability to Diagnosis: Baseline Findings from the Calgary Functional Movement Disorder Registry

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Functional movement disorder (FMD), a subtype of functional neurological disorder, is a complex neuropsychiatric syndrome characterized by inconsistent and incongruent motor symptoms. Despite its relatively high prevalence, FMD remains associated with delayed diagnosis, significant disability, and limited evidence to guide ...
