Study Findings from Beijing Tiantan Hospital Advance Knowledge in Neurology (Electrophysiological diagnosis of functional tremor).

A recent study conducted at Beijing Tiantan Hospital in China has focused on the diagnosis of functional tremor, which is the most common subtype of functional movement disorder. The researchers found that there is currently no definitive method for diagnosing this condition, leading to potential misdiagnosis and mistreatment. They suggest that electrophysiological manifestations can provide objective and repeatable diagnostic information, supplementing the history and physical examination. The study aims to improve the clinical understanding of functional tremor and its diagnosis. [Extracted from the article]
