The Phenotypical Presentation of SCA8 in Taiwan
Objective: We described the clinical features and phenotypic presentation of 40 patients who was diagnosed with spinocerebellar ataxia type 8 (SCA8) in a single tertiary…Inertial Sensor-Based Tremor and Bradykinesia Quantification and Potential for Early Disease Identification in Fragile X-associated Tremor/Ataxia Syndrome (FXTAS)
Objective: To quantify the severity of tremor subtypes and bradykinesia in FXTAS and potentially identify preclinical symptoms in premutation carriers (PMC) without a diagnosis of…Does lesion localisation predict tremor characteristics in patients with focal cerebellar lesion?
Objective: To determine if lesion localisation correlates with tremor characteristics in patients with focal cerebellar lesion. Background: It is a clinical experience that acute lesions…GluRδ2 protein reduction in cerebellar Purkinje cells contributes to the pathogenesis of essential tremor
Objective: To identify a molecular substrate reflecting kinetic tremor, the core feature of essential tremor (ET) Background: ET is one of the most common movement…Compression Therapy: A Treatment of Rubral Tremor
Objective: To present a case of a post-stroke rubral tremor which benefited from compression therapy to the affected arm, improving medication-refractory tremor. Background: Rubral and ataxic…Longitudinal follow-up of dual-lead thalamic deep brain stimulation for patients with treatment refractory multiple sclerosis tremor
Objective: To report long-term outcome measurements of tremor control in patients with medically refractory multiple sclerosis tremor and dual lead thalamic deep brain stimulation. Background:…Fragile X-associated tremor/ataxia syndrome, Parkinson’s disease, and essential tremor subjects demonstrate distinct tremor characteristics using quantitative tremorography
Objective: To compare Fragile X-associated tremor/ataxia syndrome (FXTAS), Parkinson disease (PD), essential tremor (ET) and controls using quantitative measures of tremor. Background: FXTAS, a progressive…Tremor in motor neuron disease may be central rather than peripheral in origin
Objective: To investigate the pathophysiology of action tremor in motor neuron disease (MND). Background: MND refers to a spectrum of degenerative diseases affecting motor neurons.…Tremor in motorneuron disease: central or peripheral origin?
Objective: To investigate whether postural/action tremor in motorneuron disease (MND) has a central origin. Background: MND refers to the whole spectrum of progressive degenerative diseases…Movement Disorders in Demyelinating Diseases: a retrospective review from a tertiary academic center.
Objective: To review the prevalence of movement disorders (MD) in patients with demyelinating diseases (DD) treated at a tertiary academic center and to characterize their therapeutic response…
