Normal Temporal Discrimination in Musician's Dystonia Is Linked to Aberrant Sensorimotor Processing

Abstract

TDT assessment as an endophenotypic marker may only be relevant to nonmusician forms of dystonia because of the lack of apparent alterations in musician's dystonia. Compensatory adaptation of neural circuitry responsible for TDT processing likely adjusted the TDT performance to the behaviorally normal levels in patients with musician's dystonia, but not nonmusician's dystonia. © 2020 International Parkinson and Movement Disorder Society.
