Cerebellar GABA in essential tremor and dystonic tremor: A MR spectroscopy study
Objective: To explore the role of GABA in the pathophysiology of ET and DT by using MR spectroscopy. Background: The mechanisms of tremor in ET…Dystonia in a medieval scribe: Analysis of Bernard Blancard’s handwriting over four decades
Objective: We evaluate the dated documents of a French scribe, which span the late 13th and early 14th centuries, in order to reach a diagnosis…Timing control of gait in essential tremor patients vs. age-matched controls
Objective: (1) To examine if gait timing control is impaired in ET patients compared with age-matched controls. (2) To examine whether timing impairments are related…Independent validation of the quality of life in essential tremor questionnaire (QUEST)
Objective: We performed an independent testing of the Quality of Life in Essential Tremor Questionnaire (QUEST) adding further information on its clinimetric properties. Background: Essential…Regulation in speech motor control in ET patients treated with DBS: Kinematics of the lingual and the labial systems
Objective: We aim to quantify the effects of VIM-DBS on speech regulation mechanisms in patients with Essential Tremor (ET). Background: VIM-DBS is an effective treatment…Association of Parkinson’s disease with essential tremor
Objective: In this study we present the clinical characteristics of 10 patients (6 males, 4 females) with both essential tremor (ET) and Parkinson's disease (PD).…Clinical characteristics of Parkinson’s disease and essential tremor patients undergoing deep brain stimulation surgery: Five-year data from Columbia University Medical Center (2009 – 2014)
Objective: To compare the clinical characteristics of essential tremor (ET) and Parkinson's disease (PD) patients who underwent deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery to those of…Individualized botulinum toxin type A therapy of bilateral upper limb essential tremor by multi-sensor kinematic technology
Objective: To demonstrate efficacious and safe reduction in bilateral upper limb tremor severity by serial botulinum toxin type A injection parameters kinematically determined using a…MRI guided high-intensity focused ultrasond for the treatment of essential tremor and Parkinson’s disease: Clinical outcome and radiological findings of unilateral thalamotomy
Objective: To report our clinical experience in the treatment of essential (ET) and Parkinson's disease (PD) tremor with MRI guided High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (MRgHIFU). Background:…Role of contact polarity on therapeutic impedances at two deep brain stimulation (DBS) targets
Objective: To demonstrate the role of contact polarity on therapeutic impedances at two DBS targets. Background: Neuromodulation with DBS is an established therapy for medically…
