Journal ArticleDOI
Hemispheric asymmetry of surround inhibition in the human motor system
TL;DR: Hemispheric asymmetry of SI might be able to serve as a neurophysiological proxy for handedness and suggest that the functional operation of SI in the motor system is more efficient in the dominant hand than the non-dominant hand.
Journal ArticleDOI
Physiology of free will
TL;DR: If there is a “free will force” that plays a role in movement selection, it should precede movement, and the perception of willing is not fully processed until after the movement.
Journal ArticleDOI
Increased volume and impaired function: the role of the basal ganglia in writer's cramp.
Kirsten E. Zeuner,Arne Knutzen,Oliver Granert,Julia Götz,Stephan Wolff,Olav Jansen,Dirk Dressler,Harald Hefter,Mark Hallett,Günther Deuschl,Thilo van Eimeren,Karsten Witt +11 more
TL;DR: Investigation of the basal ganglia circuit and the cerebellum during a complex motor sequence learning task carried out with the nonaffected hand in writer's cramp patients found it to be connected with dystonia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Research priorities in limb and task-specific dystonias

TL;DR: Focal limb dystonia can occur in either the upper or lower limbs and may be task-specific causing abnormal motor performance for only a specific task, such as in writer's cramp, runner's dystonias or musician's dystia as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Noninvasive neuromodulation in essential tremor demonstrates relief in a sham-controlled pilot trial.

TL;DR: The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of median and radial nerve stimulation as a noninvasive, nonpharmacological treatment to aid in the symptomatic relief of hand tremor in individuals with ET with a favorable side effect profile compared with other available therapies.
