✦ Synopsis


Multidimensional evaluations are recommended for the assessment of tremor severity in clinical trials. The precise method of measuring a particular tremor influences the results of the measurement. Furthermore, complex natural tremor amplitude perturbations introduce the potential for sampling errors.

To account for the fluctuating and context-dependent nature of tremor, the method of ambulatory long-term electromyography (EMG) was developed for quantification of this symptom. It is based on successive evaluation of 15-s intervals by using a fast Fourier transformation (FFT). The standard results

## Abstract Essential tremor (ET) still remains a clinical diagnosis. Nonetheless, it is misdiagnosed in 30 to 50% of cases. There are a number of areas of diagnostic uncertainty. One of these is isolated head tremor, on which published data are limited and at variance. We studied the prevalence of

## Abstract The spectrum of involuntary movements seen in essential tremor (ET) is limited. Jaw tremor is one such movement. The prevalence and clinical correlates of jaw tremor have not been studied in detail. The objective of this study was to estimate the prevalence and examine the clinical corr
