Background and ObjectiveLaryngeal dystonia (LD) is focal task‐specific dystonia, predominantly affecting speech but not whispering or emotional vocalizations. Prior neuroimaging studies identified brain regions forming a dystonic neural network and contributing to LD pathophysiology. However, the underlying temporal dynamics of these alterations and their contribution to the task‐specificity of LD remain largely unknown. The objective of the study was to identify the temporal–spatial signature of altered cortical oscillations associated with LD pathophysiology.MethodsWe used high‐density 128‐electrode electroencephalography (EEG) recordings during symptomatic speaking and two asymptomatic tasks, whispering and writing, in 24 LD patients and 22 healthy individuals to investigate the spectral dynamics, spatial localization, and interregional effective connectivity of aberrant cortical oscillations within the dystonic neural network, as well as their relationship with LD symptomatology.ResultsSymptomatic speaking in LD patients was characterized by significantly increased gamma synchronization in the middle/superior frontal gyri, primary somatosensory cortex, and superior parietal lobule, establishing the altered prefrontal‐parietal loop. Hyperfunctional connectivity from the left middle frontal gyrus to the right superior parietal lobule was significantly correlated with the age of onset and the duration of LD symptoms. Asymptomatic whisper in LD patients had not no statistically significant changes in any frequency band, whereas asymptomatic writing was characterized by significantly decreased synchronization of beta‐band power localized in the right superior frontal gyrus.ConclusionTask‐specific oscillatory activity of prefrontal‐parietal circuitry is likely one of the underlying mechanisms of aberrant heteromodal integration of information processing and transfer within the neural network leading to dystonic motor output. © 2023 International Parkinson and Movement Disorder Society.
