We studied the effects of transcranial motor cortex stimulation on the electromyographic characteristics of tremor in 9 patients with familial essential tremor and in 12 patients with postural tremor associated with Parkinson's disease. Transcranial magnetic stimulation reset both types of tremor eq
## Abstract The decision to treat patients with essential tremor (ET) is based primarily on the functional impact of the tremor. Correlates of functional disability, apart from the severity of the tremor itself, have not been studied. The objective of this work was to study correlates of functional
## Abstract Both postural and kinetic tremors may occur in essential tremor (ET), however the relative contribution of each is not clear. ET has been variably defined with respect to kinetic and postural tremors. To examine the relative severity of postural and kinetic tremors in ET, 50 ET cases fr
## Abstract Tremor in the dominant arm is often the focus of clinical attention in essential tremor (ET) yet many daily activities require both arms. The functional relevance of nondominant arm tremor has rarely been studied. In 181 right‐handed patients with ET, action tremor in each arm was rated
