Reduction of neuroinflammation by selective inhibition of the N-type calcium channel is beneficial in various animal models of neurodegeneration, here in the SOD1G93A transgenic mouse model of ALS
Objective: Neuroinflammation is a pathological hallmark of several neurodegenerative diseases. We speculated that reduction of calcium ion influx specifically in neurons should reduce inflammatory cellular…Eye Movement Abnormalities Correspond to Pontine Atrophy in Wilson Disease
Objective: This study aims to characterize eye movement (EM) abnormalities in Wilson´s disease (WD) and to assess their relation to clinical severity of WD and…Movement Disorders as Postinfectious Neurologic Syndromes
Objective: We shows the three patients which some neurologists diagnosed psychological disorders at first. Their movement disorders are due to postinfectious neurologic syndromes (Epstein-Barr virus…Persistent downbeat nystagmus due to Arnold-Chiari type I malformation
Objective: Describe a patient with persistent downbeat nystagmus(DBN) related to Arnold-Chiari type I malformation Background: As a rare acquired nystagmus with various causes, DBN is…Deep brain stimulation matters in pediatric neurology – single-center experience
Objective: This study is to review our single-center experience with deep brain stimulation (DBS) in pediatric patients with dystonia. Background: Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is…Changes in chest wall intermuscular coherence and speech breathing kinematics during speech and non-speech tasks following LSVT LOUD® in children with dysarthria secondary to cerebral palsy
Objective: The present study examined the short- and long-term treatment effects of Lee Silverman Voice Treatment (LSVT LOUD) on respiratory control via lung volume events…Genetic defects causing complex movement disorders and basal ganglia degeneration in childhood
Objective: To characterize genotype–phenotype correlations in basal ganglia degeneration (BGD) in childhood. Background: BGD in childhood causes movement disorders, neurodevelopmental dysfunction and long-lasting severe disability.…Basal Ganglionic Lesions in Egyptian Children: Radiological Findings in Correlation with Etiology and Clinical Manifestations
Objective: to determine the etiology of basal ganglionic disorders in a sample of Egyptian children. Background: In childhood, the metabolic activity of the basal ganglia…Atypical glutaric aciduria type 1 with hemidystonia and asymmetric radiological findings misdiagnosed as an ischemic stroke
Objective: To report on a case of glutaric aciduria type 1 misdiagnosed as an ischemic stroke because of atypical radiological signs and motor phenotype. Background:…Movement Disorders in Children with Autoimmune Diseases
Objective: To report and describe movement disorders, clinical and investigative features of children with a clinical diagnosis of autoimmune diseases. Background: Movement disorders (Md) are…
