Oculomotor assessment is an essential element of the neurological clinical examination and
is particularly important when evaluating patients with movements disorders. Most of the …

Eye movements are a source of valuable information to both clinicians and scientists as
abnormalities of them frequently act as clues to the localization of a disease process …

Thoroughly revised and updated for its Sixth Edition, this classic work is the most

We sequenced the prion protein gene and studied the biochemical characteristics and the
intracerebral distribution of protease‐resistant prion protein with Western blot and …

The sporadic form of Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease (sCJD) has been classified on the basis of
the molecular mass of the protease-resistant scrapie prion protein (PrPSc), which can be …

We studied eye movements and brainstem pathology in 2 patients with slow vertical

We review current concepts of nystagmus and saccadic oscillations, applying a
pathophysiological approach. We begin by discussing how nystagmus may arise when the …
