Clinical and electrophysiological aspects of tics in children.

CONCLUSIONS: The data show extraordinary sensitivity of neuromuscular system of children to various physiological and pathological stimuli, occurring in the body in the ontogenesis or diseases, and multifactorial origin of the pain syndrome in tics.The results suggest that one of the main mechanisms of development of pathological process is dysfunction of descending inhibitory control. However, further clarification of the type of polysynaptic reflex excitability in a certain patient is needed, that will allow to develop individualized approach to the choice of therapeutic interventions.
