Impact of Physiotherapy in the Treatment of Pain in Cervical Dystonia.

Background: Cervical dystonia (CD) is the most common form of focal dystonia in adults. Studies show that physiotherapy (PT) in combination with BoNT has an effect on pain in cervical dystonia. We intended to test this hypothesis in a real-world setting to answer the question of whether pain is a good target symptom for prescribing PT.

Chronic Enterovirus Meningoencephalitis in Prolonged B-Cell Depletion After Rituximab Therapy: Case Report.

Objectives: Persistent impaired immunity is possible even years after B-cell depleting therapies. This may favor the occurrence of infections, including infectious meningitis and encephalitis. In this study, we report a case of chronic enterovirus meningoencephalitis in prolonged B-cell depletion years after rituximab therapy.

Long-term efficacy with deep brain stimulation of the globus pallidus internus in cervical dystonia: a retrospective monocentric study.

Background: Cervical dystonia (CD) is characterized by involuntary contractions of the cervical muscles. Data on long-term effectiveness of deep brain stimulation (DBS) are rare. The aim of this study was to evaluate the longitudinal ten years treatment efficacy of DBS in the globus pallidus internus (GPI).
