Abstract: Purpose The effects of neuromodulation are virtually unexplored in adductor laryngeal dystonia (AdLD), a disorder characterized by involuntary contraction of intrinsic laryngeal muscles. Recent findings indicated that intracortical inhibition is reduced in people with AdLD.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1212/wnl.0000000000200850
Abstract: Background and Objectives Laryngeal dystonia (LD) is isolated task-specific focal dystonia selectively impairing speech production. The first choice of LD treatment is botulinum neurotoxin (BoNT) injections into the affected laryngeal muscles. However, whether BoNT has… read more here.
