Isolated Voice Tremor: A Clinical Variant of Essential Tremor or a Distinct Clinical Phenotype?
Background: The consensus statement by the Task Force on Tremor of the International Parkinson and Movement Disorder Society excludes individuals with “isolated voice tremor” as a clinical variant of essential tremor (ET).

Tremor of the upper extremity is a significant cause of disability in some patients with multiple sclerosis (MS). The MS tremor is complex because it contains an ataxic intentional tremor component due to the involvement of the cerebellum and cerebellar ...

Tremor in motor neuron disease may be central rather than peripheral in origin [PDF]
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Motor neuron disease (MND) refers to a spectrum of degenerative diseases affecting motor neurons. Recent clinical and post-mortem observations have revealed considerable variability in the phenotype.

Emerging therapies and recent advances for Tourette syndrome
Tourette syndrome is the most prevalent hyperkinetic movement disorder in children and can be highly disabling. While the pathomechanism of Tourette syndrome remains largely obscure, recent studies have greatly improved our knowledge about this disease ...

Increased gravitational force reveals the mechanical, resonant nature of physiological tremor [PDF]
Human physiological hand tremor has a resonant component. Proof of this is that its frequency can be modified by adding mass. However, adding mass also increases the load which must be supported.

The Pathophysiology of Essential Tremor and Parkinson’s Tremor [PDF]
We review recent evidence about the pathophysiology of essential tremor and tremor in Parkinson's disease. We believe that a network perspective is necessary to understand this common neurological symptom, and that knowledge of cerebral network dysfunction in tremor disorders will help to develop new therapies.

Unusual Forehead Tremor in Four Patients with Essential Tremor
Forehead tremor has only been reported in two patients with essential tremor, one with rhythmic tremor and the other with dystonic tremor. We report 4 new patients with essential tremor who present a 4–6 Hz frontal tremor registered by electromyography ...

Rest tremor revisited: Parkinson’s disease and other disorders
Tremor is the most common movement disorder characterized by a rhythmical, involuntary oscillatory movement of a body part. Since distinct diseases can cause similar tremor manifestations and vice-versa, it is challenging to make an accurate diagnosis ...

Tremor in the elderly: Essential and aging‐related tremor [PDF]
AbstractBackgroundIsolated tremor in the elderly is commonly diagnosed as essential tremor (ET). The prevalence of tremor increases steeply with increasing age, whereas hereditary tremor is becoming less common. Moreover, late‐manifesting tremor seems to be associated with dementia and earlier mortality.
