Concise neurology: a focused review/ Alberto J. Espay, Još Biller
No full textIncludes bibliographical references and index"With easy-to-read, high-yield coverage of essential information in neurology, Concise Neurology: A Focused Review is a practical, everyday reference for busy practitioners, fellows, residents, and students who need a rapid overview of a complex subject. The second edition has been almost entirely rewritten to stay current with recent developments in the field but retains its quick-reference format: an intuitively designed one- or two-page presentation of each topic to facilitate rapid review. Virtually every topic of interest is covered, including the core concepts in diagnosis and treatment for each syndrome or disease. Material is presented in order of clinical relevance, maintaining a thematic unity across related pages for the most effective, efficient review. An engaging writing style offers many pearls and personal explanations from the authors that clarify difficult concepts. Every page offers a quick yet thoughtful summary of key points, making it particularly useful for busy residents, fellows, and practitioners"--Basics of Metabolism and Pediatric Neurology -- Stroke, Epilepsy, Sleep disorders, Coma, and Migraine -- Infectious Diseases -- Neurotoxicology -- Movement Disorders. -- Behavioral Neurology -- Neuro-Ophthalmology and Neuro-Otology -- Demyelinating Diseases, Neuro-Oncology, and Disorders of Neural Tube Closure and Other Congenital Malformations -- Neuromuscular Disorders -- Psychiatry1 online resourc

Dysfunctional Networks in Functional Dystonia
No full textFunctional dystonia, the second most common functional movement disorder, is characterized by acute or subacute onset of fixed limb, truncal, or facial posturing, incongruent with the action-induced, position-sensitive, and task-specific manifestations of dystonia. We review neurophysiological and neuroimaging data as the basis for a dysfunctional networks in functional dystonia. Reduced intracortical and spinal inhibition contributes to abnormal muscle activation, which may be perpetuated by abnormal sensorimotor processing, impaired selection of movements, and hypoactive sense of agency in the setting of normal movement preparation but abnormal connectivity between the limbic and motor networks. Phenotypic variability may be related to as-yet undefined interactions between abnormal top-down motor regulation and overactivation of areas implicated in self-awareness, self-monitoring, and active motor inhibition such as the cingulate and insular cortices. While there remain many gaps in knowledge, further combined neurophysiological and neuroimaging assessments stand to inform the neurobiological subtypes of functional dystonia and the potential therapeutic applications
