Distinct neural circuits for control of movement vs. holding still
R Shadmehr - Journal of neurophysiology, 2017 - journals.physiology.org
In generating a point-to-point movement, the brain does more than produce the transient
commands needed to move the body part; it also produces the sustained commands that are …

Dystonia and tremor: a cross-sectional study of the dystonia coalition cohort
Objective To assess the clinical manifestations and predictors of different types of tremors in
individuals with different types of isolated dystonia. Methods Clinical manifestations of …

Proprioceptive modulation of pallidal physiology in cervical dystonia
Background There is a growing body of evidence suggesting that botulinum toxin can alter
proprioceptive feedback and modulate the muscle‐spindle output for the treatment of …

Postural control of arm and fingers through integration of movement commands
Every movement ends in a period of stillness. Current models assume that commands that
hold the limb at a target location do not depend on the commands that moved the limb to that …

Cervical dystonia: a neural integrator disorder
Ocular motor neural integrators ensure that eyes are held steady in straight-ahead and
eccentric positions of gaze. Abnormal function of the ocular motor neural integrator leads to …

Clinical features, pathophysiology, treatment, and controversies of tremor in dystonia
Dystonia and tremor frequently co-occur. In some cases, they have shared biological
mechanisms, while in others dystonia and tremor are two comorbid conditions. The term …

Oscillatory head movements in cervical dystonia: Dystonia, tremor, or both?
Cervical dystonia is characterized by abnormal posturing of the head, often combined with
tremor‐like oscillatory head movements. The nature and source of these oscillatory head …

Pallidal activity in cervical dystonia with and without head tremor
A Sedov, S Usova, U Semenova, A Gamaleya… - The Cerebellum, 2020 - Springer
The relationship between two common movement disorders, dystonia and tremor, is
controversial. Both deficits have correlates in the network that includes connections between …

Cerebellar intermittent theta-burst stimulation and motor control training in individuals with cervical dystonia
Background: There is emerging evidence that cervical dystonia is a neural network disorder
with the cerebellum as a key node. The cerebellum may provide a target for …
