Functional connectivity within the cerebellum and brainstem in essential tremor patients– a tailored resting state fMRI approach
Objective: To better understand the pathophysiology of essential tremor (ET) by analysing brainstem and cerebellar neuronal circuitry activity with tailored fMRI resting state methods. Background:…Genetic analysis of DNA methylation and hydroxymethylation genes in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To investigate the relationship between DNA methylation/hydroxymethylation genes and Parkinson’s disease (PD), we conducted genetic analysis in a relatively large Chinese population. Background: PD…Change of tremor dominant body side after deep brain stimulation in patients with Parkinson’s disease
Objective: In this study, we aimed to determine changes in distribution of tremor dominant body side after DBS and searched for possible explanations if tremor…Plasma transferrin level correlates with the tremor-dominant phenotype of Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To examine plasma iron metabolism related indicators in patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD) and investigate the mechanism underlying the tremor-dominant phenotype of PD. Background:…Distinguishing isolated asymmetric limb tremor from essential tremor: An electrophysiological study
Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the somatosensory discrimination threshold (STDT), the short intracortical inhibition (SICI) and the cortical plasticity via paired…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.…Association between peripheral inflammation and DATSCAN data of the striatal nuclei in different motor subtypes of Parkinson Disease
Objective: This work was designed to investigate peripheral inflammation in terms of Neutrophil-Lymphocyte ratio (NLR) concerning loss of dopaminergic uptake in caudate and putamen on…Microstructural Changes in Normal Appearing White Matter in Parkinson’s Disease (PD) Correlate with Motor, Tremor, and Neuropsychiatric Scores
Objective: To determine if microstructural changes in the normal appearing white matter of PD are associated with clinical manifestations of disease. Background: White matter (WM)…Prism adaptation and cerebellar inhibition were impaired in essential tremor
Objective: We aimed to reveal cerebellar dysfunction in patients with essential tremor using neurophysiological methods. Background: Cerebellar dysfunction is suggested to contribute to tremor generation.…Cerebello-cortical loops differ between Essential-, Parkinsonian- and voluntary tremor
Objective: Topographical comparison of subcortico-cortical oscillating loops between different tremors. Background: Cerebellum and cortical motor regions are involved in Essential, Parkinsonian and voluntary tremor, three oscillatory motor…
