To investigate the subjective phenomenon and the neural underpinnings of tics compared with voluntary movements in patients with tic disorders....
We recorded electroencephalographic and electromyographic data while subjects completed a Libet clock paradigm. Patients and healthy volunteers reported the times of W (willing to move) and M (movemen...
In the patients, W and M times preceding voluntary movements and tics did not significantly differ from voluntary movements of healthy volunteers. The Bereitschaftspotentials in the patients were simi...
For patients, the sense of volition for tics is similar to that of their voluntary movements which is similar to normal. Patients showed dissociations between the Bereitschaftspotential and beta desyn...
This physiology shows a difference for most tics compared with normal movements....
Tics peak in late childhood and decline during adolescence. Yet, for some with Tourette's disorder, tics persist into adulthood. We evaluated childhood predictors of adult tic severity and tic impairm...
The etiology of tic disorders (TDs) is not precisely known, although several lines of evidence suggest involvement of the immune system in pathogenesis. Here, we aimed to determine the expression leve...
To study the associations of parenting styles and anxiety in Thai children and adolescents with tic disorders, comparing with healthy children and adolescents....
A cross-sectional study of children and adolescents aged between six and 18 years with tic disorders were enrolled. The control group comprised gender- and age-matched healthy children with no history...
A total of 41 children with tic disorders and 41 children in the control group were enrolled. According to the STAIC, the anxiety state and trait scores were significantly higher in the tic disorders ...
Anxiety is common in Thai children with tic disorders. Screening for anxiety in children and adolescents with tic disorders is essential, leading to early detection and providing proper management....
Until the outbreak reported during the COVID-19 pandemic, functional tics were considered to be a relatively rare clinical phenotype, as opposed to other functional movement disorders such as function...
Data from 110 patients were collected at the same neuropsychiatry centre: 66 consecutive patients who developed functional tics without other functional motor symptoms or neurodevelopmental tics and 4...
Both groups were characterized by female sex preponderance (70%-80%) and (sub)acute onset of functional symptoms (~80%). However, patients with functional tics had a significantly earlier age at onset...
Patients who developed functional tics during the pandemic represent a phenotypic variant of the wider group of patients with functional movement disorders, associated with younger age at onset and in...
Our objective was to evaluate the feasibility and acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of a modified comprehensive behavioral intervention for tics (MCBIT) therapy for youth with chronic tic disord...
Most people with persistent tics report an unpleasant sensation (premonitory urge) before the tic. In recent years, interest in these sensory phenomena has increased due to their important role in beh...
We examined the psychometric properties and factor structure of the Spanish-language version of the PUTS in a sample of 72 children and adolescents with Tourette syndrome or persistent tic disorders. ...
The PUTS presented good internal consistency and moderate correlations between items on the scale (except for item 1). Divergent validity was good, test-retest reliability was adequate, and a bifactor...
The Spanish-language version of the PUTS is a valid, reliable tool for assessing premonitory urges in both children and adolescents, especially after the age of 10....
With a lifetime prevalence of 2.3%, obsessive compulsive disorder is a chronic, disabling condition that is associated with significant social and occupational impairment. Up to 30% of individuals wit...
Studies on antiseizure-induced obsessive-compulsive disorder and tic disorders are reviewed. The literature search strategy identified 89 articles. Twenty-nine articles were included in the final resu...
This study highlighted the temporal relationship of antiseizure medication use and onset of obsessive-compulsive symptoms and tics. Monitoring for medication-induced obsessive compulsions or tics shou...
Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and persistent tic disorder (PTD) are two neurodevelopmental disorders that frequently co-occur. Contributions of each disorder to cognitive and behavio...
Participants were 148 children (55 with ADHD only, 33 with ADHD and PTD, 27 with PTD only, and 33 healthy control subjects) at ages 8 to 12 years. Following diagnostic interviews and behavioral assess...
ADHD diagnosis was the primary driver of cognitive and behavioral deficits, while deficits associated with PTD were primarily with thought problems and internalizing problems when compared with contro...
Similar to general behavioral deficits, aberrant resting-state neural connectivity in pediatric ADHD and PTD combines additively in co-occurring cases. The findings of this study support ADHD as a foc...
Tourette syndrome and chronic tic disorders are characterized by the presence of tics. Different behavioral therapies have shown to be efficacious for treating tics in children and adolescents, but Ex...
