Physiological Tremor
he contraction of a voluntary muscle is accompanied by tremors of the muscle in the form of minute oscillations. In an electrical recording of the muscle's activity the tremor can be seen as a trace of very fine rhythmic movements superimposed on the record of the contraction itself. The amplitude of the oscillations is about a hundredth or a fiftieth as large as that of the total movement prod...
متن کاملPhysiological tremor in children.
A rhythmic tremor at about 10 c./sec. is a wellknown feature of muscular contraction in healthy adults. In some subjects the amplitude of the tremor is such that it is discernible by the naked eye, while in others sensitive methods of recording are required for its detection. While studying this phenomenon Marshall and Walsh (1956) noticed that the tremor in six normal children was slower than ...
متن کاملGenetical components of physiological tremor.
Pysiological tremor was measured in 14 pairs of monozygotic twins, 14 pairs of dizygotic twins, and 14 pairs of control subjects matched for age and sex. Postural finger tremor was measured in each pair using a sub-miniature accelerometer and subjecting the amplified signals to power spectral analysis. Significant genetical influences were found for the proportion of tremore at frequencies near...
متن کاملMembrane Mechanisms of Tremor
A number of neurological and psychogenic disorders present with tremor. In some, there is a known structural abnormality, while in others the pathophysiology is unknown. For example, the scarcity of a neurotransmitter from presynaptic neuronal degeneration causes tremor in degenerative cerebellar or basal ganglia disorders (Jankovic and Tolosa 2007 ) . Instability of the brainstem neural integr...
متن کاملDiurnal variation of essential and physiological tremor.
Evaluations were made of the diurnal variations of tremor power at rest, after fatigue and after mass loading, and plasma norepinephrine in patients with familial essential tremor and normal subjects. Diurnal tremor power rhythms for both essential and physiological tremor pursued identical temporal profiles. Plasma norepinephrine levels followed a congruent diurnal pattern with later peak valu...
