Gustatory function of patients with essential tremor and its correlation with olfactory and cognitive functions
Objective: We aimed to evaluate gustatory, olfactory and cognitive functions in Essential Tremor patients. Background: Essential tremor (ET) is a pathologically heterogeneous neurodegenerative disorder with…Comparing tremor- and non-tremor effects of ethanol in patients with essential tremor
Objective: To explore the relationship between self-reported non-tremor effects of ethanol and objective tremor severity in Essential Tremor (ET). Background: Ethanol has been demonstrated to…How do patients experience deep brain stimulation surgery: A prospective patient satisfaction survey
Objective: To evaluate experience of patients who undergo Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) surgery for treatment of different movement disorders, using patient survey questionnaires. Background: DBS…Tremor frequency by iPhone® applications: Correlation with EMG analysis
Objective: To compare tremor frequency obtained by EMG and accelerometry analysis with three iPhone® applications. Background: Frequency as a property of tremor is a vital…Quantitative assessment of DBS-induced gait disorder in patients with essential tremor
Objective: To investigate changes in gait coordination quantitatively in patients with essential tremor (ET) under chronic bilateral high-frequency stimulation of the nucleus ventralis intermedius (VIM).…Recharge frequency is not driven by therapy power usage in patients implanted with rechargeable deep brain stimulation systems
Objective: To explore the relationship between recharge frequency and therapy power usage in patients with rechargeable deep brain stimulation (DBS) devices. Background: Advancements in DBS…Altered connectivity within the cerebello-thalamo-cortical network in essential tremor: A resting state fMRI study
Objective: To evaluate the tremor network in Essential Tremor(ET) patients in rest conditions with respect to Healthy Controls(HC). Background: Pathophysiology of ET is poorly understood.…Primidone-related connective tissue disorders in essential tremor
Objective: To present a case of Dupuytren's contracture (DC), Ledderhose's syndrome (LS), and Peyronie's disease (PD) in a patient with long term use of primidone…Cognitive change following deep brain stimulation in patients with movement disorders
Objective: To assess the degree and pattern of cognitive changes following Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD), Dystonia and Essential Tremor…Sleep in essential tremor patients: A polysomnographic study
Objective: The aim is to investigate sleep and sleep related disorders in essential tremor patients compared with Parkinson's disease patients and healthy control subjects. Background:…
