Despite increasing evidence suggesting the cerebellum works in concert with the cortex and
basal ganglia, the nature of the reciprocal interactions between these three brain regions …

Movement disorders, which include disorders such as Parkinson's disease, dystonia,
Tourette's syndrome, restless legs syndrome, and akathisia, have traditionally been …

Background The dystonias include a clinically and etiologically very diverse group of
disorders. There are both degenerative and non-degenerative subtypes resulting from …

A role for the cerebellum in causing ataxia, a disorder characterized by uncoordinated
movement, is widely accepted. Recent work has suggested that alterations in activity …

The cerebellum is best known for its role in controlling motor behaviors. However, recent
work supports the view that it also influences non-motor behaviors. The contribution of the …

This manuscript is the second part of a two-part description of the current status of
understanding of the network function of the brain in health and disease. We start with the …

The cerebellum is involved in multiple closed-loops circuitry which connect the cerebellar
modules with the motor cortex, prefrontal, temporal, and parietal cortical areas, and …

Dystonia is generally regarded as a disorder of the basal ganglia and their efferent
connections to the thalamus and brainstem, but an important role of cerebellar-thalamo …

Background The neural basis of task specificity in dystonia is still poorly understood. This
study investigated gray and white matter (WM) brain alterations in patients with task‐specific …

Movement disorders typically arise from dysfunction of the basal ganglia (BG), cerebellum,
or both. The BG—a group of deep, subcortical structures—form complex circuits that shape …
