Convergence Deficits in Myoclonus‐Dystonia Point to Cerebellar Impairment

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Myoclonus‐dystonia (M‐D) is a monogenic movement disorder, with proposed cerebellar dysfunction. Vergence eye movement deficits, characteristics of degenerative cerebellar disease, have not been studied in M‐D. Cerebellar transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) is considered a potential therapeutic approach.

Functional Connectivity to the Cerebellum and Resting‐State Networks Predict Earlier Improvement of Dystonia Following Globus Pallidus Internus‐Deep Brain Stimulation (GPi‐DBS)

open access: yesMovement Disorders, EarlyView.
Early improvement of dystonia after globus pallidus internus‐deep brain stimulation (GPi‐DBS) is associated with stimulation of the globus pallidus externus‐subthalamic nucleus (GPe‐STN) fibers and the lenticular fasciculus. Functional connectivity to the cerebellar cortex and the limbic and default mode networks predict early improvement of symptoms ...
