Primary Writing Tremor

Tremor and Other Hyperkinetic Movements, 2018
Background: Primary writing tremor (PWT) is a rare condition; tremor occurs primarily while writing rather than during other tasks. Phenomenology Shown: We illustrate the phenomenology of PWT and point out associated subtle dystonic posturing on ...

Pediatric writer's cramp in myoclonus-dystonia: Maternal imprinting hides positive family history

, 2009
Myoclonus-dystonia (M-D) is an autosomal dominantly inherited movement disorder with myoclonic jerks and dystonic contractions most frequently due to a mutation in the epsilon-sarcoglycan (SGCE, DYT11) gene.

Laser‐Induced Graphene from Waste Almond Shells

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Almond shells, an abundant agricultural by‐product, are repurposed to create a fully bioderived almond shell/chitosan composite (ASC) degradable in soil. ASC is converted into laser‐induced graphene (LIG) by laser scribing and proposed as a substrate for transient electronics.

Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation induced modulations of resting state motor connectivity in writer's cramp. [PDF]

, 2015
peer reviewed("[en] BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Writer's cramp (WC) is a focal task-specific dystonia of the hand which is increasingly being accepted as a network disorder. Non-invasive cortical stimulation using repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation

Role of Intrinsic Electron Trapping in Negative Charging of Amorphous Alumina

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Intrinsic electron trapping in amorphous Al2O3 is examined using hybrid‐DFT models spanning a wide density range. Both spontaneous and thermally activated trapping are identified, with pronounced spontaneous localization in dense, partly crystallized structures.

Two Task-Specific Dystonias in One Hand

Tremor and Other Hyperkinetic Movements, 2013
Background: Dystonia is characterized by involuntary muscle contractions that lead to abnormal postures and/or repetitive movements. Task‐specific dystonia only manifests during a specific activity. Case report: We report a case of a female with writer's

Interface Effects in Ultrathin Silicon on Insulator Films

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work establishes a systematic framework to discriminate how bulk and interface phenomena affect charge transport in ultrathin P‐doped silicon‐on‐insulator (SOI) films. For Si films below 15 nm, electrical characterization demonstrates that interface states drive charge transport, shifting the metal‐insulator transition (MIT) critical dopant ...

Synergistic Cu‐Fe Interactions Enhance Phase Transformation Kinetics Toward High‐Performance CuFeS2‐Based All‐Solid‐State Batteries

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
CuFeS2 is found to induce the formation of intermediate phases, highlighting a strong Cu–Fe synergistic effect during conversion reactions in lithium all‐solid‐state batteries (Li‐SSBs). The integrated reaction pathway effectively suppresses phase separation and accelerates reaction kinetics, leading to enhanced electrochemical reversibility and ...

Botulinum toxin does not reverse the cortical dysfunction associated with writer's cramp. A PET study.

, 1997
Previous H2(15)O PET activation studies on patients with idiopathic torsion dystonia (ITD) have shown overactive striatum and frontal accessory areas and underactivity of the primary motor cortex and caudal supplementary motor area (SMA) during ...
