Tremor after solid organ transplantation: Results from the TransplantLines Biobank and Cohort Study.

Background And Purpose: Tremor is a frequent complaint of solid organ transplant recipients. We report on the largest population investigated with clinical neurophysiological methods. Our aim is to objectively establish the tremor prevalence and syndrome in the largest population of solid organ transplant recipients.

Next move in movement disorders: neuroimaging protocols for hyperkinetic movement disorders.

Introduction: The Next Move in Movement Disorders (NEMO) study is an initiative aimed at advancing our understanding and the classification of hyperkinetic movement disorders, including tremor, myoclonus, dystonia, and myoclonus-dystonia. The study has two main objectives: (a) to develop a computer-aided tool for precise and consistent classification of these movement disorder phenotypes, and (b) to deepen our understanding of brain pathophysiology through advanced neuroimaging techniques. This protocol review details the neuroimaging data acquisition and preprocessing procedures employed by the NEMO team to achieve these goals.

Double lesion MRgFUS thalamotomy for essential tremor: 4.5-year outcomes and framework for assessing loss of efficacy and tremor progression.

Background: The essential tremor (ET) course to 54 months post-unilateral VIM/PSA magnetic resonance-guided focused ultrasound (MRgFUS) in the treated arm (TA) and non-treated arm (NTA) of 12 patients is reported.

Methods: Tremor severity was rated using Bain Findley spirography (BFS) scores in the TA and NTA. We divided follow-up into 'Early' (0-6 months) and 'Late' (6-54 months) phases, to minimise the effect of peri-lesion oedema resolution on the latter.

Testing for Alcohol Responsiveness in Familial Essential Tremor.

Background: Essential tremor (ET) is the most common movement disorder in adults and is considered to be highly heritable. A reduction of the tremor amplitude after alcohol consumption is reported in approximately half of the patients. In this study, we describe the alcohol response in our familial ET cohort by employing an alcohol responsivity test designed by Knudsen et al.

Lack of effect of deep brain stimulation on resting-state functional connectivity in essential tremor provides valuable insights.

This scientific commentary refers to 'Deep brain stimulation does not modulate resting-state functional connectivity in essential tremor', by Awad et al. (https://doi.org/10.
