    Motor stress elicits dystonia-like movements in a pharmacological mouse model for Rapid-Onset Dystonia-Parkinsonism (DYT12)

    L. Rauschenberger, J. Volkmann, C.W. Ip (Wuerzburg, Germany)

    Objective: To study if a mild stressful trigger by motor activity leads to development of dystonia-like movements in a pharmacological mouse model for DYT12. Background:…

    Brainstem connection of Writer’s cramp: Electrophysiological correlates

    S. Choudhury, P. Chatterjee, R. Singh, S. Shubham, S. Trivedi, M. Baker, S. Baker, H. Kumar (Kolkata, India)

    Objective: In this study, we explored the involvement of brainstem in Writer’s cramp (WC) patients through pre-pulse inhibition of blink reflex and Start-React paradigm.  Background:…

    Dystonia-like phenotype in a DYT1 rat model after peripheral trauma

    S. Knorr, K. Grundmann-Hauser, J. Volkmann, C.W. Ip (Wuerzburg, Germany)

    Head turning onset and velocity in response to a peripheral visual stimulus in cervical dystonia patients, their unaffected relatives with and without abnormal temporal discrimination and healthy controls.

    I. Beiser, B. Quinlivan, E. McGovern, L. Williams, S. Narasimham, O. Killian, R. Beck, S. O'Riordan, J. Butler, R. Reilly, M. Hutchinson (Dublin 4, Ireland)

    Objective: We postulate that cephalomotor responses (onset of head turning and speed of head turning) to the appearance of a novel peripheral visual stimulus will…
