Animal Models of Tremor: Relevance to Human Tremor Disorders [PDF]
Tremor and Other Hyperkinetic Movements, 2018 ackground: Tremor is the most common movement disorder; however, the pathophysiology of tremor remains elusive. While several neuropathological alterations in tremor disorders have been observed in post-mortem studies of human brains, a full ...

Characteristics of Task-specific Tremor in String Instrument Players [PDF]
Tremor and Other Hyperkinetic Movements, 2014 Background: In recent studies primary bowing tremor has been described; however, tremor frequency has never been quantitatively assessed. In addition to describing phenomenological aspects of tremor we thus aimed at assessing tremor frequency.

Harmaline Tremor: Underlying Mechanisms in a Potential Animal Model of Essential Tremor [PDF]
Tremor and Other Hyperkinetic Movements, 2012 Background: Harmaline and harmine are tremorigenic β-carbolines that, on administration to experimental animals, induce an acute postural and kinetic tremor of axial and truncal musculature.

Clinical Differentiation of Essential Tremor and Parkinson's Disease
Clinical Medicine Insights: Case Reports, 2013 We present clinical features and tremor characterization in a patient with Parkinson's disease (PD) as well as in two cases of essential tremor (ET) with some parkinsonian features but no evidence of dopaminergic terminal loss on 123 I-FP-CIT Single ...

Effect of mental fatigue on induced tremor in human knee extensors [PDF]
, 2014 In this study, the effects of mental fatigue on mechanically induced tremor at both a low (3-6Hz) and high (8-12Hz) frequency were investigated. The two distinct tremor frequencies were evoked using two springs of different stiffness, during 20s ...
