Fragile X Associated Tremor and Ataxia Syndrome (FXTAS) presents with widespread reactive gliosis and white-matter specific astrocyte degeneration
Objective: We will characterize neuropathological alterations of astrocytes in different regions of the FXTAS brain. Background: FXTAS is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that occurs in…Metabolic profile in the brain with Fragile X-associated Tremor/Ataxia Syndrome (FXTAS)
Objective: We analyzed changes in the concentration of primary metabolites in post-mortem brain samples from FXTAS cases. We also investigated how these changes relate to…Use Of Digitizing Tablet For the Tremor Evaluation
Objective: This review was done to know the uses of digitalizing tablets for the tremor evaluation. Background: Tremor is the most common movement disorder seen…Validation of postural tremor model using regression and optimization
Objective: The purpose of this work is to validate a mathematical model of postural tremor to predict tremor at the hand from measurements of tremorogenic…Large-Scale Network Changes in the Pathophysiology of Essential Tremor
Objective: To assess functional brain network architecture in participants with medically-refractory essential tremor (ET) and to correlate the strength of these networks with clinical tremor…White matter microstructural abnormalities in tremor dominant and non-tremor dominant Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To explore differences in white matter microstructural integrity in tremor dominant and non-tremor dominant Parkinson’s disease (PD) using tract based spatial statistics (TBSS). Background:…Can a “Shopping bag Tremor” be a Pre-diagnostic sign of Parkinson’s Disease?
Objective: To describe an unusual wrist tremor according the existing classification and discuss its aetiological diagnosis. Background: Although Parkinson’s disease (PD) is usually associated with…The pathophysiology of dystonic tremors and comparison with essential tremor
Objective: To explore the pathophysiology of dystonic tremors (DT) and comparison with essential tremor (ET). Background: The characteristics and mechanisms of tremor in dystonia are…Motor Networks in Tremor-Dominant Parkinson’s Disease. A resting-state functional MRI and diffusion tensor imaging analysis.
Objective: To investigate the integrity of cerebellothalamocortical circuit (CTCC) and basal ganglia-cortical loop (BGCL) connectivity in tremor-dominant PD (TD-PD) and compare with a group of akinetic-rigid…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:…
