This paper presents a two stage algorithm for real-time estimation of instantaneous tremor parameters from gyroscope recordings. Gyroscopes possess the advantage of providing directly joint rotational speed, overcoming the limitations of traditional tremor recording based on accelerometers. The proposed algorithm first extracts tremor patterns from raw angular data, and afterwards estimates its instantaneous amplitude and frequency. Real-time separation of voluntary and tremorous motion relies on their different frequency contents, whereas tremor modelling is based on an adaptive LMS algorithm and a Kalman filter. Tremor parameters will be employed to drive a neuroprosthesis for tremor suppression based on biomechanical loading.

: In Slovenia, patients with suspected tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) were historically referred to infectious diseases (ID), but during the COVID-19 pandemic, there were increased referrals to neurology. This study compared the clinical management of TBE patients between ID specialists and neurologists and assessed patients' outcomes. : We retrospectively reviewed the clinical, laboratory, and imaging data of 318 adult patients with TBE managed by ID (n = 256; 80.

Article Synopsis
- Parkinson's disease (PD) is a movement disorder linked to the degeneration of dopamine-producing neurons, and treatments like Levodopa (L-dopa) and Subthalamic Deep Brain Stimulation (STN-DBS) have distinct effects on brain activity that need further study.
- In a study involving 21 PD patients on L-dopa and 11 patients with STN-DBS, researchers used Magnetoencephalogram (MEG) data to analyze how these treatments impacted brain state dynamics through a statistical method called the Time-delay embedded Hidden Markov Model (TDE-HMM).
- Results showed that L-dopa enhanced motor state and beta wave activity in the brain, correlating

Conventional deep brain stimulation (DBS) for movement disorders is a well-established clinical treatment. Over the last few decades, over 200,000 people have been treated by DBS worldwide for several neurological conditions, including Parkinson's disease and Essential Tremor. DBS involves implanting electrodes into disorder-specific targets in the brain and applying an electric current.

Background And Objectives: Patients undergoing thalamic ventral intermediate nucleus stimulation to treat essential tremor (ET) develop tolerance over time, requiring higher stimulation amplitudes that lead to more frequent battery changes and suboptimal tremor control. The study objective is to determine whether amplitude tolerance differs between patients with omnidirectional vs directional leads.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of ET patients with omnidirectional and directional leads implanted between 2005 and 2022.
