## Abstract We report on a patient with psychogenic craniocervical dystonia who had complete amelioration of her dystonia using typical __gestes antagonistes__. This exceptional case underlines the lack of specificity of these maneuvers for organic dystonia when confronted with more obvious clinica

## Abstract Voluntary movements, such as the self‐paced finger extension task used in the present experiments, are preceded by a slowly rising negative electroencephalographic potential [the movement‐related cortical potential (MRCP)]. The early NS1 component of the potential was no different in pa

In this article we studied spinal and cortical inhibitory mechanisms in patients with Huntington's disease. To evaluate spinal cord inhibitory circuitries, we assessed reciprocal inhibition between antagonist forearm muscles and the recovery cycle of the H reflex in the flexor carpi radialis. Patien
