GABA plays a vital role in controlling the involuntary tics associated with Tourette Syndrome.
A new neuroimaging study identifies differences in brain areas in children with Tourette syndrome compared to peers without the disorder.
Researchers use a new computer based brain stimulation to demonstrate tics associated with Tourette syndrome as a result of interaction between multiple brain regions.
Children of younger parents are at increased risk of ADHD and Tourette syndrome, while children of older parents are at more risk of being diagnosed with OCD and autism.
Deep brain stimulation helps reduce movement tics and verbal outbursts in people suffering from Tourette, researchers report.
Researchers discover children with Tourette syndrome are faster at assembling sounds into words than typically developing children.
Researchers find no evidence to support the theory that strep throat may lead to the development of tics in children with a parent or sibling with a chronic tic disorder.
A new study suggests using competing responses could help combat oncoming tics for children with Tourette syndrome.
Researchers report GABA could help reduce tics in people with Tourette syndrome.
Researchers discover structural changes in two genes that increase the risk for Tourette syndrome.
A new study identifies a neural network that appears to be responsible for the development of tics and tic disorders. Researchers say deep brain stimulation applied to this network helps alleviate symptoms of tics.
The loss of a specific type of neuron in the dorsal striatum has been found to cause Tourette like tics in mice, a new study reports.
