Risk of Spreading in Adult-onset Dystonia.
Tremor Other Hyperkinet Mov (N Y)
December 2024
Istanbul University-Cerrahpasa, Cerrahpasa Medical Faculty, Department of Neurology, Istanbul, Turkey.
Background: Adult-onset dystonia can also spread to other parts of the body, although it is not as common as childhood-onset dystonia.
Objective: Our study aimed to examine the clinical factors determining spreading patterns in all adult-onset dystonia types.
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the medical records of patients with a diagnosis of isolated dystonia followed longitudinally at our center.

Does Integration of Graded Motor Imagery Training Augment the Efficacy of a Multimodal Physiotherapy Program for Patients With Frozen Shoulder? A Randomized Controlled Trial.
Clin Orthop Relat Res
September 2024
Department of Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation, Faculty of Health Sciences, Istanbul University-Cerrahpasa, Istanbul, Turkey.
Article Synopsis
- Current treatments for frozen shoulder lack a universal agreement on the most effective approach, and recent studies suggest that addressing central nervous system functions may enhance management outcomes.
- This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of incorporating graded motor imagery into a physical therapy program compared to standard therapy alone, by assessing pain, disability scores, and range of motion after 8 weeks.
- A total of 38 participants with frozen shoulder were randomly divided into two groups (graded motor imagery and multimodal physiotherapy), with no significant differences in demographics or dropouts during the trial.
Brain metabolic response to repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation to lesion network in cervical dystonia.
Brain Stimul
December 2024
Turku Brain and Mind Center, Clinical Neurosciences, University of Turku, Turku, Finland; Neurocenter, Turku University Hospital, Turku, Finland; Turku PET Centre, Turku University Hospital, Turku, Finland; Department of Clinical Neurophysiology, University of Turku, Finland.
Article Synopsis
- A previous study found a specific brain network linked to cervical dystonia (CD), pointing out its potential for treatment, especially with non-invasive techniques like repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS).
- The study aimed to evaluate how stimulating the somatosensory cortex (S1) affects brain metabolism in CD patients versus healthy controls, using methods like [F]FDG-PET to measure changes.
- Results showed that cTBS significantly increased metabolism in the S1 and brainstem of CD patients, suggesting abnormal sensory function in CD and supporting future therapeutic trials using this stimulation method.
Movement disorders of the stomatognathic system: A blind spot between dentistry and medicine.
Dent Med Probl
September 2024
Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, National Hospital Organization, Kyoto Medical Center, Kyoto, Japan.
Movement disorders of the stomatognathic system include oromandibular dystonia (OMD), oral dyskinesia, sleep/awake bruxism, functional (psychogenic) stomatognathic movement disorders (FSMDs), tremors, and hemimasticatory spasm (HMS). Most patients first consult dentists or oral surgeons. The differential diagnoses of these involuntary movements require both neurological and dental knowledge and experience, and some of these movement disorders are likely to be diagnosed as bruxism or temporomandibular disorders (TMDs) by dental professionals.
