We used transcranial magnetic stimulation in 10 patients with essential tremor and 8 matched healthy subjects. A round stimulating coil was placed over the vertex and electromyographic activity was recorded from the first dorsal interosseous muscle. Paired transcranial stimuli were delivered at inte

Reciprocal inhibition of the H-reflex in the forearm flexor muscles was studied in 11 patients with essential tremor and in 10 normal controls. Whereas patients and controls had a similar first, disynaptic phase of reciprocal inhibition, patients had a significantly reduced second phase. Patients wi
We studied the effect of botulinum toxin A injection on the abnormal presynaptic phase of reciprocal inhibition between forearm antagonist muscles in patients with essential tremor. Ten patients with essential tremor were investigated before and 1 month after botulinum injection. Reciprocal inhibiti
We evaluated the effect of a strength-training program on the ability of persons with essential tremor to exert steady forces with the index finger. Thirteen subjects with a diagnosis of essential tremor were assigned to three different groups: one group trained with heavy loads, one with light load
