Botulinum toxin therapy in hemifacial spasm: Clinical and electrophysiologic studies

TL;DR: The efficacy of botulinum toxin in hemifacial spasm appears to be related to the production of muscle weakness; there is no demonstrable effect on phenomena believed to be ectopic excitation or ephaptic transmission in the facial nerve.
Journal ArticleDOI

Temporal macrodynamics and microdynamics of the postoperative impedance at the tissue–electrode interface in deep brain stimulation patients

TL;DR: The authors found major changes in impedance within the first month postimplantation, with no further variation, an important confirmation in patients of this temporal dynamics of the impedance of implanted DBS hardware, with potential therapeutic implications.
Journal ArticleDOI

Skeletal muscle‐specific immunotoxin for the treatment of focal muscle spasm

TL;DR: Assessment of rat muscle strength after unilateral gastrocnemius injections showed that ITX was more effective and had a longer duration of action than BTX, suggesting ITXs may have potential for the treatment of involuntary muscle spasms.
Journal ArticleDOI

How the Brain Handles Temporally Uncoupled Bimanual Movements

TL;DR: Results demonstrate that the extent of bihemispheric coupling of M1 areas is related to the degree of temporal synchronization of bimanual finger movements and that inferior parietal and premotor regions play a key role for the implementation not only of spatial but also of temporal movement parameters in bimanUAL coordination.
