The effect of fatigue on abnormal vibration induced illusion of movement in idiopathic focal dystonia.
BACKGROUND Perception of vibration induced illusionary movement (VIIM) is subnormal in dystonic patients, suggesting abnormal sensory-motor processing in patients with idiopathic focal dystonia. OBJECTIVE To examine the effects of fatigue on VIIM in patients with idiopathic torticollis. METHODS An illusionary sensation of arm extension was evoked by an 80 Hz transcutaneous vibratory stimulu...
متن کاملAbnormal Muscle Afferent Function in a Model of Taxol
19 20 In spite of muscle pain being a well-described symptom in patients with 21 diverse forms of peripheral neuropathy, the role of neuropathic mechanisms in 22 muscle pain have received remarkably little attention. We have recently 23 demonstrated in a well-established model of chemotherapy-induced painful 24 neuropathy (CIPN), that the anti-tumor drug paclitaxel (Taxol®) produces 25 mechanic...
متن کاملAbnormal muscle afferent function in a model of Taxol chemotherapy-induced painful neuropathy.
Despite muscle pain being a well-described symptom in patients with diverse forms of peripheral neuropathy, the role of neuropathic mechanisms in muscle pain have received remarkably little attention. We have recently demonstrated in a well-established model of chemotherapy-induced painful neuropathy (CIPN) that the anti-tumor drug paclitaxel (Taxol) produces mechanical hyperalgesia in skeletal...
متن کاملEssential tremor and cerebellar dysfunction: abnormal ballistic movements.
BACKGROUND Clinical characteristics reminiscent of cerebellar tremor occur in patients with advanced essential tremor. Ballistic movements are known to be abnormal in cerebellar disease. The hypothesis was proposed that ballistic movements are abnormal in essential tremor, reflecting cerebellar dysfunction. OBJECTIVE To elucidate the role of the cerebellum in the pathophysiology of essential ...
متن کاملSymptomatic and essential palatal tremor. 3. Abnormal motor learning.
BACKGROUND Palatal tremor is divided into symptomatic palatal tremor (SPT) and essential palatal tremor (EPT) on the basis of clinical features. The inferior olive seems to be abnormal in SPT, but not EPT. Because the inferior olive is likely to be involved in several types of motor learning, it is hypothesised that motor learning would be abnormal in patients with SPT, but not those with EPT. ...
