Relationship Between Essential Tremor and Cerebellar Dysfunction According to Age
BACKGROUND The cerebellum and its neural circuitry have been assumed to play a major role in the pathophysiology of essential tremor (ET). In this study, we sought to find associations between ET and cerebellar dysfunction. METHODS We performed tandem gait test in 41 ET patients and 44 age-matched controls. Investigators assessed tandem gait by counting the number of missteps during ten-step ...
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 کاملEssential tremor and cerebellar dysfunction clinical and kinematic analysis of intention tremor.
The cerebellum is assumed to play a major role in the pathophysiology of essential tremor (ET). As intention tremor is considered one of the classical features of cerebellar disease, we have assessed a large group of patients with ET for the semiology of the tremor and have performed objective quantitative analysis of a grasping movement in patients with ET, cerebellar disease and a normal cont...
متن کاملOrthostatic tremor: a cerebellar pathology?
SEE MUTHURAMAN ET AL DOI101093/AWW164 FOR A SCIENTIFIC COMMENTARY ON THIS ARTICLE: Primary orthostatic tremor is characterized by high frequency tremor affecting the legs and trunk during the standing position. Cerebellar defects were suggested in orthostatic tremor without direct evidence. We aimed to characterize the anatomo-functional defects of the cerebellar motor pathways in orthostatic t...

http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.clinph.2016.12.014 1388-2457/Published by Elsevier Ireland Ltd on behalf of International Fe Opsoclonus and flutter are ocular oscillations consisting of continuous, involuntary, conjugate saccades without intersaccadic intervals. If these saccadic oscillations are purely horizontal, they are called ocular flutter; if they have horizontal, vertical and torsional comp...
