Researchers report GABA could help reduce tics in people with Tourette syndrome.
Researchers discover children with Tourette syndrome are faster at assembling sounds into words than typically developing children.
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.
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.
Histamines may help to reduce tics associated with Tourette syndrome, a new mouse study finds.
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.
Researchers use a new computer based brain stimulation to demonstrate tics associated with Tourette syndrome as a result of interaction between multiple brain regions.
Deep brain stimulation helps reduce movement tics and verbal outbursts in people suffering from Tourette, researchers report.
Researchers discover a mechanism in the brain which controls tics in children with Tourette Syndrome.
Almost 20% of children develop facial or vocal tics by the time they are elementary school age. For many children, knowing others are watching them helps to reduce tic behaviors. A histor of anxiety disorder has been associated with tics in young children. Understanding more about tic behaviors in children may help to develop new strategies to help those with Tourette suppress tics.
Researchers have identified four damaged genes which disrupt normal brain development in those with Tourette syndrome.
A new neuroimaging study identifies differences in brain areas in children with Tourette syndrome compared to peers without the disorder.
