Journal ArticleDOI
Anti-basal ganglia antibodies in patients with atypical dystonia and tics: a prospective study.
Mark J. Edwards,E Trikouli,Davide Martino,M Bozi,Russell C. Dale,AJ Church,A Schrag,AJ Lees,Niall Quinn,Gavin Giovannoni,Kailash P. Bhatia +10 more
TL;DR: Anti-basal ganglia antibodies were positive in 65% of a group of 65 patients with atypical movement disorders, but were very rare in healthy adults and adults with idiopathic dystonia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tremor retrainment as therapeutic strategy in psychogenic (functional) tremor
Alberto J. Espay,Mark J. Edwards,G.D. Oggioni,Nicolas Phielipp,B. Cox,Héctor González-Usigli,C. Pecina,Dustin A. Heldman,J. Mishra,Anthony E. Lang +9 more
TL;DR: Tremor retrainment may be an effective short-term treatment strategy in psychogenic tremor and blinded evaluations are not feasible, but future studies should examine the long-term benefits of tremor retrainedment as adjunctive to psychotherapy or specialized physical therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Familial psychogenic movement disorders.
Maria Stamelou,Giovanni Cossu,Mark J. Edwards,Daniela Murgia,Isabel Pareés,Maurizio Melis,Kailash P. Bhatia +6 more
TL;DR: Psychogenic (or functional) movement disorders (PMDs) are considered sporadic and their occurrence in familial clusters is not reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Alteration of central motor excitability in a patient with hemimasticatory spasm after treatment with botulinum toxin injections.
Pablo Mir,Francesca Gilio,Mark J. Edwards,Maurizio Inghilleri,Kailash P. Bhatia,John C. Rothwell,Niall Quinn +6 more
TL;DR: Electrophysiological data suggest that HMS may be due to ectopic activity in the motor portion of the trigeminal nerve that is capable of inducing changes in the excitability of central reflex pathways and can be altered by successful treatment with botulinum toxin.
Journal ArticleDOI
Normal Motor Adaptation in Cervical Dystonia: A Fundamental Cerebellar Computation is Intact
Anna Sadnicka,Bansi Patani,Tabish A. Saifee,Panagiotis Kassavetis,Isabel Pareés,Prasad Korlipara,Kailash P. Bhatia,John C. Rothwell,Joseph M. Galea,Joseph M. Galea,Mark J. Edwards +10 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined motor adaptation, a test of cerebellar function, in 20 subjects with primary cervical dystonia and an equal number of aged matched controls, and found that the ability to adapt was not clearly related to clinical features of dystonic head tremor.
