Variability of motor imagery in children with cerebral palsy examined using the Hand Laterality Test
Variability of motor imagery performance in children with cerebral palsy. This original article is commented by Souto on pages 1494–1495 of this issue. Abstract Aim To examine motor imagery performance in children with cerebral palsy (CP) compared to typically developing children and develop a composite motor imagery score to differentiate between the ...

Clinicopathological Correlates in a PRNP P102L Mutation Carrier with Rapidly Progressing Parkinsonism-dystonia [PDF]
Parkinsonism-dystonia is rare in carriers of PRNP P102L mutation. Severity and distribution of prion protein (PrP) deposition may influence the clinical presentation. We present such clinic-pathological correlation in a 56-year-old male with a PRNP P102L

DXS106 and DXS559 flank the X-linked dystonia-parkinsonism syndrome locus (DYT3).
The locus (DYT3) underlying the X-linked dystonia-parkinsonism syndrome (XDP) was delineated within proximal Xq12-Xq13.1 by analysis of linkage, allelic association, and haplotypes. Short tandem repeat polymorphisms at loci DXS227, DXS559, DXS453, DXS106,

Association of Pallidal Neurostimulation and Outcome Predictors With X-linked Dystonia Parkinsonism. [PDF]
ImportanceAnecdotal evidence suggests that deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the internal globus pallidus (GPi) is effective in ameliorating dystonia in X-linked dystonia parkinsonism (XDP), a disease that is usually refractive to medical therapy.ObjectiveTo determine the efficacy of GPi-DBS in a cohort of patients with XDP in a prospective study and ...
