Study of eye movements as a tool in the diagnosis hereditary ataxias
Objective: To study ocular movements (ocular pursuit, nystagmus and saccades) in the most frequent ataxias (SCA2, SCA3 and Friedreich's ataxia), to find out which variables…Oscillaotory activity in the globus pallidus internus in patients with Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To quantify the characteristics of oscillatory neurons in the GPi in patients with PD. Background: Abnormal oscillatory activity has been predicted to play a…Pallidal surgery and physiological mechanism in choreic movements
Objective: To investigate the effect of deep brain stimulation (DBS) or coagulation of the internal globus pallidus (GPi) for choreic movements of various disorders and…Neuromuscular electrical stimulation for the treatment of jaw-closing dystonia
Objective: To measure whether neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) increases jaw-opening distance and improves quality-of-life in jaw-closing dystonia patients. Background: An index case with progressive supranuclear…Correlations between genetics and cortical dysfunction of paroxysmal kinesgenic dyskinesia
Objective: To delineate the cortical function of paroxysmal kinesigenic dyskinesia (PKD) and correlate with the genotypes of patients. Background: PKD is characterized by episodic involuntary movements…Characterization of the motor phenotype and striatal muscle analysis in a mouse model of hereditary spasticity
Objective: Characterize the motor phenotype and contractile force characteristics of skeletal plantar flexor muscles in a mutant mouse model for spasticity. This model displays a…Impact of cathine and carthinone use among Parkinson’s disease Patients
Objective: Evaluate cathine and cathinone’s effect on alertness, energy, sleep pattern, and tremor among Parkinson’s disease patient. Background: Khat, a plant that contains amphetamine like…Asymmetrical striatal dopamine transporter binding correlates with excess contralateral rest tremor
Objective: To investigate the relationship between striatal dopamine transporter binding and rest tremor. Background: In vivo dopamine transporter imaging is a useful tool for distinguishing…Detection of impaired finger dexterity by objective keyboard typing test in Parkinson’s Disease: A feasibility study
Objective: To objectively evaluate finger dexterity in Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients by keyboard typing test. Background: Impaired motor dexterity is a type of bradykinesia which…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…
