Hand-gripping training is important for improving the fundamental functions of human physical activity. Bernstein's idea of "repetition without repetition" suggests that motor control function should be trained under changing states. The randomness level of load should be visualized for self-administered screening when repeating various training tasks under changing states. This study aims to develop a sensing methodology of random loads applied to both the agonist and antagonist skeletal muscles when performing physical tasks...

Deficits in fine motor skills have been reported in some children with neurodevelopmental disorders such as amblyopia or strabismus. Therefore, monitoring the development of motor skills and any potential improvement due to therapy is an important clinical goal. The aim of this study was to test the feasibility of performing a kinematic assessment within an optometric setting using inexpensive, portable, off-the-shelf equipment. The study also assessed whether kinematic data could enhance the information provided by a routine motor function screening test (the Movement Assessment Battery for Children, MABC)...

Cerebral palsy (CP) is the most common cause of physical disability during childhood, occurring at a rate of 2.1 per 1000 live births. Early diagnosis is key to improving functional outcomes for children with CP. The General Movements (GMs) Assessment has high predictive validity for the detection of CP and is routinely used in high-risk infants but only 50% of infants with CP have overt risk factors when they are born. The implementation of CP screening programs represents an important endeavour, but feasibility is limited by access to trained GMs assessors...

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive neurological disorder that manifests clinically as alterations in movement as well as multiple non-motor symptoms including but not limited to cognitive and autonomic abnormalities. Loss-of-function mutations in the gene encoding the ubiquitin E3 ligase Parkin are causal for familial and juvenile PD. Among several therapeutic approaches being explored to treat or improve the prognosis of patients with PD, the use of small molecules able to reinstate or boost Parkin activity represents a potential pharmacological treatment strategy...

Stable visual perception, while we are moving, depends on complex interactions between multiple brain regions. We report a patient with damage to the right occipital and temporal lobes who presented with a visual disturbance of inward movement of roadside buildings towards the centre of his visual field, that occurred only when he moved forward on his motorbike. We describe this phenomenon as "self-motion induced environmental kinetopsia". Additionally, he was identified to have another illusion, in which objects displayed on the screen, appeared to pop out of the background...

Recoverin is a neuron-specific calcium-binding protein that is mainly located in the retina and pineal gland. Few reports have described patients with anti-recoverin antibody-positive encephalitis, and no cases of psychosis associated with this encephalitis have been reported. We report a patient with anti-recoverin antibody-positive encephalitis with Cotard and Capgras delusions who was successfully treated with electroconvulsive therapy (ECT). The patient was a 25-year-old woman. She exhibited disorientation, executive function deficits, tremors in the upper limbs, generalized athetoid-like involuntary movements, hallucinations, incontinence, and fever, which led to her admission to our hospital...

Functional tremor (FT) is the most common phenotype of functional movement disorders (FMD). Its diagnosis can often be challenging. While positive signs such as tremor variability, distractibility, and entrainment support a diagnosis of FT, these diagnostic clues may not always be present and can be challenging to assess. In this case series, we identify another examination technique which could be of value when assessing FT. In our Movement Disorders clinic, charts were retrospectively reviewed for relevant clinical information...
