tremor/fatigue

There is a growing amount of evidence to suggest that besides motor features, patients with essential tremor (ET) may exhibit significant nonmotor features, such as mild cognitive deficits, fatigue, neuropsychiatric symptoms, and sleep disturbances. The goal of this study was to examine nonmotor

OBJECTIVE To compare the tremorlytic properties of pramipexole, a non-ergoline dopamine agonist to those of placebo as add on medication in patients with Parkinson's disease. METHODS Eighty four patients with early or advanced Parkinson's disease and marked, drug resistant tremor under a stable and

After preliminary observations on 5 psychotic and 7 nonpsychotic parkinsonian patients had shown unexpected impressive beneficial effects of the atypical neuroleptic clozapine on tremor, an open clinical study including 12 patients was started. Under a dosage-range approximately 25-50 mg/day

Lyme borreliosis is a multisystem disorder caused by Borrelia burgdorferi (Bb). Neurological symptoms such as lymphocytic meningoradiculoneuritis (Bannwart's syndrome), cranial neuritis (II,III,IV,V,VI), encephalitis, transverse myelitis are found in about 10% of cases during the second phase of the

Autosomal dominant cortical tremor, myoclonus, and epilepsy (ADCME)/familial adult onset myoclonic epilepsy (FAME) is a nonprogressive disorder characterized by (1) distal tremors that are usually precipitated by posture and action; (2) stimulus-sensitive myoclonus that is predominantly seen in the

The effect of alprazolam on essential tremor was examined by a double-blind, placebo-controlled parallel study of 24 patients. Results indicated that patients treated with alprazolam had significant improvement in tremor. Transient mild fatigue or sedation in 50% of patients was the primary side

Background: The aim of this open registry study was to evaluate the effects of Robuvit® in subjects with hangover after acute alcohol consumption also measuring changes in levels of oxidative stress. A group using standard management (SM)

Neural circuits that comprise the indirect pathway in the basal ganglia have been implicated in tremor genesis, and possibly play a role in the voluntary activation of muscles. However, an absence of in vivo human studies that target striatal D2 dopamine receptors of the indirect pathway have

Evaluations were made of the diurnal variations of tremor power at rest, after fatigue and after mass loading, and plasma norepinephrine in patients with familial essential tremor and normal subjects. Diurnal tremor power rhythms for both essential and physiological tremor pursued identical temporal

Essential tremor (ET) is one of the most common movement disorders. The treatment is primarily based on pharmacological agents. Although primidone and propranolol are well established treatments in clinical practice, they can be ineffective in 25% to 55% of patients, and can produce serious adverse

This paper describes a theoretical consideration on muscle stretch reflex in physiological tremor (abbreviated as tremor). In making a model, the function of rostro-caudal homonymous motoneurone pool as well as the interaction between spinal cord mechanism and supraspinal system is investigated. The

BACKGROUND Fatigue is one of the most frequent nonmotor manifestations in Parkinson's disease (PD), having a major effect on quality of life but is not reported in Indian patients. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the frequency of fatigue in a cohort of PD population and its correlation with

BACKGROUND All individuals have a physiologic tremor that may become more pronounced in periods of stress, stimulant use, or caffeine. There are few publications measuring the effects of these factors on surgeons or trainees and no comprehensive reviews. We sought to review the representative
