The relationship between essential tremor (ET) and migraine was investigated in a prospective study. In a group of 74 ET patients 36.5% had migraine compared with 17.7% of 102 control subjects without tremor. In a group of 58 patients with migraine 17.2% had ET compared with 1.2% of 85 controls
BACKGROUND
Tremor and headache are two of the most prevalent neurological conditions. This review addresses possible associations between various types of tremor and headache, and provides a differential diagnosis for patients presenting with both tremor and headache.
METHODS
Data were identified by
Essential tremor (ET) is a common movement disorder with disability in voluntary actions such as eating and writing. First-line treatment involves pharmacological agents, although efficacy is limited by side effects. In these patients, functional neurosurgery can be considered. Aside from physiological tremor, essential tremor (ET) is by far the most common cause of tremor in humans, affecting large numbers of individuals in every human population. The crude prevalence of ET has been conservatively estimated to be between 0.4% and 3.9%, although some estimates of the
Essential tremor (ET) and migraine headache are considered comorbid diseases on the basis of uncontrolled studies. We investigated the frequency of migraine in patients with ET by enrolling 110 patients with ET and 110 age- and sex-matched healthy controls in a case-control study. We found no
We report a family with dominantly inherited migraine headaches, episodic vertigo, and essential tremor. All symptoms improved with the use of acetazolamide. Linkage analysis ruled out linkage to markers on chromosome 19p, known to be linked to the genetic defect in families with the clinically
OBJECTIVE
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) has become a standard procedure for movement disorders such as Parkinson's disease, essential tremor or dystonia. Recently, deep brain stimulation of the posterior hypothalamus has been shown to be effective in the treatment of drug-resistant chronic cluster
OBJECTIVE
The purpose of this case report is to describe the chiropractic management of a 39-year-old woman with essential tremors and migraine headaches.
METHODS
A 39-year-old woman presented with essential tremors and migraine headaches, which occurred 2 to 3 times per week. The essential tremor
We studied the effect of the carbonic anhydrase inhibitor methazolamide in 25 patients with essential tremor (ET) in a double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. Tremor assessment included patient self-reporting of functional disability, clinical rating of motor tasks and tremor severity, and
Essential tremor (ET) is one of the most common movement disorders. The treatment is primarily based on pharmacological agents. Although primidone and propranolol are well established treatments in clinical practice, they can be ineffective in 25% to 55% of patients, and can produce serious adverse
Medical therapy for essential tremor (ET), a common movement disorder, is often inadequate. We performed a double-blind placebo-controlled randomized trial to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of zonisamide (ZNS), an antiepileptic agent, in treating ET. Twenty patients (mean age, 60 +/- 15
Objective To investigate the long-term efficacy and safety of magnetic resonance imaging-guided focused ultrasound (MRgFUS) unilateral ventral intermediate nucleus (Vim) thalamotomy for medication-refractory essential tremor (ET). Methods We performed MRgFUS left-sided Vim thalamotomy for 10
There is controversial evidence about the effect of cerebellar low-frequency stimulation in patients with essential tremor (ET).In this study we assessed safety and effectiveness of 1 Hz (low-frequency) cerebellar repetitive transcranial magnetic OBJECTIVE Thalamotomy of the ventral intermediate nucleus (VIM) is effective in alleviating medication-resistant tremor in patients with essential tremor (ET) and Parkinson's disease (PD). MR-guided focused ultrasound (MRgFUS) is an innovative technology that enables noninvasive thalamotomy via
We compared the frequency of migraine among Sydenham's chorea (SC) patients, rheumatic fever (RF) patients without neurological symptoms and matched controls. Migraine was more frequent in SC patients (12/55, 21.8%) than in controls (9/110, 8.1%) and as common as in the RF group (10/55, 18.2%). Our
