Meanings of spasmodic torticollis in English

Primary cervical dystonia patients produced less action verbs compared to healthy controls.

Action language, however, has not been investigated in primary cervical dystonia, a hyperkinetic movement disorder.

Further, cervical dystonia can occur as a feature of segmental or generalized dystonias and cerebral palsy.

Interpretation: Pallidal neurostimulation for 3 months is more effective than sham stimulation at reducing symptoms of cervical dystonia.

However, pharmacoeconomic studies evaluating treatment and disease costs have not taken into consideration the long-term complications of cervical dystonia.
