Perception-action binding in patients with functional movement disorders
Objective: To analyze cognitive processes engaged in linking and restructuring sensory perception and motor action associations in functional movement disorders (FMD). Background: FMD patients demonstrate…Disconnected brain in functional movement disorders with anxious & depressive symptoms
Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the functional brain network abnormalities underlying depression and/or anxiety symptoms (DEP/ANX) in functional movement disorders (FMD).…Biomarkers in Functional Movement Disorders: A Systematic Review
Objective: This is a systematic review performed to investigate current and potential biomarkers in functional movement disorders (FMD). Background: FMD are proposed to reflect a…Cranial functional movement disorders: Clinical features, associated conditions and precipitating factors
Objective: We aimed to examine our large series of functional movement disorder (FMD) patients where the cranial muscles were involved in order to determine their…The role of attention in functional movement disorders
Objective: Identify where the attentional focus naturally lies in functional movement disorders and evaluate which abnormal attentional foci contribute to symptom generation. The ultimate aim…Altered intrinsic power spectral density of the precuneus in patients with hyperkinetic functional movement disorders
Objective: In order to better understand the underlying mechanisms of functional movement disorders (FMD), we set out to explore changes in functional connectivity and intrinsic…The role of stress-related genes and childhood trauma in the clinical phenotype of Functional Movement Disorders
Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) at the level of stress-related genes, childhood trauma, and…Defining biomarkers to discriminate between organic and functional dystonia
Objective: Establish methodologies, fast and easy to translate to clinics, that help discriminate between organic and functional dystonia. Background: Functional dystonias are challenging diagnoses that…Can cerebellar dysfunction help differentiate idiopathic from functional cervical dystonia?
Objective: This study investigated cerebellar function in patients with primary cervical dystonia (CD) and patients with presumed functional dystonia, with the intention to both clarify…Explicit movement control in functional movement disorders is characterized by reduced lateralized beta desynchronisation
Objective: To test whether beta power remains abnormally raised during motor preparation in functional movement disorders (FMD) patients. Background: Excessive attention towards movement control is…
