A functional magnetic imaging study of the response in the superior colliculus to looming stimuli in cervical dystonia patients and their relatives
Objective: To demonstrate the functional magnetic resonance imaging response to looming stimuli in the superior colliculus of cervical dystonia patients and their relatives with and…Temporal dynamics of pallidal low-frequency oscillations in dystonia
Objective: To assess the occurrence and volatility of 4-12 Hz oscillations in local field potentials (LFPs) recorded in the internal globus pallidus (GPi) of dystonia…Cerebellar learning and its modifiability by alcohol in myoclonus-dystonia
Objective: To investigate cerebellar learning and its modifiability by alcohol in SGCE mutation-positive M-D using eye blink conditioning (EBC). Background: M-D is characterized by generalized…Therapeutic potential of compounds preferring specific GABAA receptor subunits for the treatment of dystonia?
Objective: To further define the pathophysiology of the reduction of striatal interneurons in an animal model of dystonia and to develop novel therapeutic strategies targeting…Pre-pulse inhibition of blink reflex in cervical dystonia
Objective: We aimed to analyze prepulse inhibition (PPI) of blink reflex (BR) in a group of patients with cervical dystonia (CD) to determine sensory modulation…Triad-conditioning transcranial magnetic stimulation in focal hand dystonia
Objective: To evaluate if the intrinsic oscillations within the primary motor cortex (M1) at rest are entrained at the same frequencies of trains of transcranial…Investigation of the influence of the parieto-premotor network on the motor cortex in writer’s cramp using transcranial magnetic stimulation
Objective: We aimed to study the influence of the parieto-premotor network on the motor cortex in patients with writer's cramp. Background: The parietal and premotor…Structural organization of the brain connectome in patients with psychogenic dystonia
Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the structural organization of the brain connectome in patients with psychogenic dystonia (pDYT). Background: pDYT is…Disruption of cerebellar connectivity in cervical dystonia
Objective: To evaluate the position of cerebellum in the pathophysiology of cervical dystonia by assessing the differences of cerebellar connectivity when comparing normal subjects and…Investigating the plastic effects of rapid paired associative stimulation in dystonia
Objective: To investigate the effects of rapid paired associative stimulation (PAS) in organic and psychogenic dystonia to see if this technique can differentiate them. Background:…
