Combined EMG and endoscopy guided botulinum toxin injection of the longus capitis muscle in cervical dystonia with anterocaput
Objective: To describe a safe and well tolerated technique of botulinum toxin (BnTA) injection into the longus capitis muscle (LCM) in a patient with anterocaput…Toward an automated, video-based method to measure motor severity in cervical dystonia
Objective: The objective of this study was to compare options for machine learning-based video analysis software for measuring motor severity in cervical dystonia (CD). Background:…Clinical and demographics of cervical dystonia related to the direction of the neck movement
Objective: The objectives of this report is to survey whether the type of torticollis (i.e. rotation, retrocolis and anterocolis) is related to the clinical characteristics…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…Unilateral pallidotomy for cervical dystonia
Objective: We investigated the validity of unilateral pallidotomy for cervical dystonia using severity scale of Toronto Western Spasmodic Torticollis Rating Scale (TWSTRS, range: 0-35). Background:…Sensory tricks in primary blepharospasm and cervical dystonia
Objective: To study the frequency, types, phenomenology and effectiveness of sensory tricks in primary blepharospasm and cervical dystonia patients. Background: Sensory tricks or geste antagoniste…Investigation of head tremor in cervical dystonia: Novel application of virtual reality head mounted display, the oculus rift
Objective: We aim to characterise tremulous head movements in cervical dystonia during eccentric left- and right-going head rotations. Background: Cervical dystonia is the most common…Orientation of attention affects onset of head saccades: A novel representation of the Posner cueing effect
Objective: We demonstrate how newly emerging technology can be utilized to record head movements and extract robust performance metrics. Therefore we will attempt to show,…Pallidal low frequency activity correlates with dystonic symptoms in patients with cervical dystonia
Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the potential association between pallidal 4–12 Hz activity and symptom severity as quantified by the Toronto…Features of the quality of life and related disorders in patients with focal dystonia
Objective: To evaluate the features of the quality of life (QOL) and related disorders in patients with focal dystonia (FD). Background: Studying neuropsychological disorders is…
