Tractographic patterns of effective pallidal DBS in DYT-6 Dystonia: A case study
Objective: To characterize DBS tractographic patterns in a patient with novel DYT-6 mutation with rapid response to stimulation. Background: GPi DBS is an effective treatment…Iron accumulation in a Wilson disease patient: Longitudinal 7T MRI and transcranial sonography study
Objective: To investigate longitudinal changes in clinical symptoms, 7T MRI and transcranial sonography (TCS) during chelating treatment in a Wilson disease (WD) patient. Background: Pathophysiological…Shape and volume abnormalities relate to motor abilities in idiopathic rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder
Objective: Do motor abnormalities in iRBD patients relate to volume and shape abnormalities in subcortical structures involved in cortico-subcortical circuitry? Background: Idiopathic rapid eye movement…Isolated micrographia following stroke
Objective: We report a new case of isolated micrographia due to stroke involving the lenticular nucleus. Background: Micrographia is a common sign in Parkinson´s disease…The pull test in healthy subjects: Quantitative, posturographic and electromyographic analysis
Objective: To study the destabilizing force needed to reach the limit of stability (LoS), the displacements of the center of pressure (CoP) and the postural…Exploring the brainstem functions in cervical dystonia
Objective: To explore the exteroceptive brainstem reflexes in patients with cervical dystonia. Background: Dysfunction of the inhibitory components along the motor system has been reported…Emotional modulation of the startle reflex in essential tremor: Evidence of altered cerebellar input into limbic circuitry?
Objective: To examine whether Essential Tremor (ET) is associated with subtle changes in emotion processing, in parallel with those observed in the cognitive domain, using…Single unit activity of globus pallidus during voluntary movements in patients with cervical dystonia
Objective: To reveal the electrophysiological mechanism of voluntary movements with and without neck muscle exertion in patients with cervical dystonia. Background: Globus pallidus, as part…Globus pallidus interna oscillatory activity differentiates tics from voluntary movements and the Parkinsonian resting state
Objective: To describe local field potential (LFP) characteristics during tic acivity, voluntary activity, and the Parkinsonian resting state. Background: Deep brain stimulation is an emerging…Movement execution but not preparation modulates somatosensory temporal discrimination thresholds in healthy subjects
Objective: The aim of the study was to investigate in healthy subjects whether somatosensory temporal discrimination threshold (STDT) is influenced by movement execution and preparation.…
