Do cerebrovascular risk factors impact the clinical expression of idiopathic isolated adult-onset dystonia?
Although acquired dystonia may develop following ischaemic/haemorrhagic stroke, the relationship between cerebrovascular disease and idiopathic dystonia has been poorly investigated. This cross sectional study aimed at evaluating the impact of cerebrovascular risk factors on the clinical expression of idiopathic adult onset dystonia (IAOD), with reference to dystonia localization and dystonia-associated features.

Spectrum of movement disorder emergencies in a tertiary care center in India: A prospective observational study
Conclusion: This study brings out some novel findings on the movement disorders emergencies in Indian scenario. Chorea was the most common movement disorder emergencies presenting to the neurology emergency services. Early recognition and management of movement disorders emergencies help in reducing morbidity.

Deep brain stimulation for movement disorders after stroke: a systematic review of the literature
CONCLUSIONS: This is the first systematic review of DBS for poststroke movement disorders. Overall, most studies to date have been case reports and small series reporting heterogeneous patients and surgical strategies. This review suggests that DBS for movement disorders after a stroke has the potential to be effective and safe for diverse patients, and DBS may be a feasible option to improve function even years after a stroke.PMID:36308482 | DOI:10.3171/2022.8.JNS221334

Shear wave elastography combined with electromyography to assess the effect of botulinum toxin on spastic dystonia following stroke: A pilot study
ConclusionsThis is the first study evaluating the effect of BoNT-A on muscle hypertonia following stroke, assessed by both SWE and sEMG. These findings support SWE as a useful method to disclose intrinsic muscular remodeling, independently of the effect of spastic dystonia, in particular, while muscles were assessed in a neutral position. SWE measurements of muscle stiffness cannot tell apart neural-mediated and intrinsic muscle hypertonia. Interestingly, when sEMG activity is very limited, as in spastic muscles kept in a shortened position, SWE can provide a measurement of stiffness due almost completely to intrinsic musc...

The Effect of Cerebellar rTMS on Modulating Motor Dysfunction in Neurological Disorders: a Systematic Review
Cerebellum. 2022 Aug 26. doi: 10.1007/s12311-022-01465-6. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe effectiveness of cerebellar repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) on motor dysfunction in patients with neurological disorders has received increasing attention because of its potential for neuromodulation. However, studies on the neuromodulatory effects, parameters, and safety of rTMS implementation in the cerebellum to alleviate motor dysfunction are limited. This systematic review aimed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of cerebellar rTMS treatment for motor dysfunction caused by neurological disorders and to...
