## Abstract A form of fixed dystonia (FD) without evidence of basal ganglia lesions or neurodegeneration has been recently characterized (Schrag et al., Brain 2004;127:2360‐2372), which may overlap the clinical spectrum of either complex regional pain syndrome or psychogenic dystonia. Transcranial
## Abstract The excitability of the late component of the blink reflex was measured in 19 patients with periodic leg movements in sleep (PLMS) and in 18 control patients with other sleep complaints. PLMS patients were not different from controls regarding age, body mass index, and apneas and hypopn
## Abstract It is widely accepted that peripheral trauma such as soft tissue injuries can trigger dystonia, although little is known about the underlying mechanism. Because peripheral injury only rarely appears to elicit dystonia, a predisposing vulnerability in cortical motor areas might play a ro
