## Abstract A typical pathophysiological abnormality in dystonia is cocontraction of antagonist muscles, with impaired reciprocal inhibitory mechanisms in the spinal cord. Recent experimental data have shown that inhibitory interactions between antagonist muscles have also a parallel control at the
To the Editor: Attention has recently been drawn to difficulties in distinguishing dopa-responsive dystonia from disorders with pyramidal deficits. Increased muscle tone, hyperreflexia, and dystonic extension of the big toe on plantar stimulation commonly occur in dopa-responsive dystonia and may c
## Abstract Focal hand dystonia may arise as a result of aberrant plasticity from excessive repetitive use. Improvement might be possible with appropriate motor training. Focusing on trying to decrease abnormal overflow of movement to fingers not involved in a task, we developed a motor training pr
## Abstract To clarify the rationale for using rTMS of dorsal premotor cortex (PMd) to treat dystonia, we examined how the motor system reacts to an inhibitory form of rTMS applied to the PMd in healthy subjects and in a group of patients with focal hand dystonia and DYT1 gene carriers. Continuous
