“…(The sensoric and motoric segment of the extrapyram idal system is func tionally m ature up to the pallidum inclusively as early as in neonatal life, i. e., in the period when non-myelinated pyram idal fibres are not yet capable of their full function). The extrapyram idium was thought by Foerster (1921), Leyser (1924) and Scliiider (1927) to be the site of damage in stuttering. This problem has been studied exhaustively by Seeman, who suggested th at the extrapyram ical system m ight be disturbed by the effect of the cerebral cortex and vegetative system, the main role being attributed to dien-and mesencephalon.…”

“…This term stems from observations of Foerster who noticed that certain ''Kunstgriffe'' or tricks consisting of simple sensory input could improve athetosis in patients [42]. The terms trick maneuvers [40], corrective gesture [43], reverse sensory geste [44], geste antagonistique, which is an anglicism [13,38] and, in French, geste conjuratoire (i.e., 'conjuring gesture') are also used, but less commonly.…”

History of the ‘geste antagoniste’ sign in cervical dystonia

The geste antagoniste is a voluntary maneuver that temporarily reduces the severity of dystonic posture or movements. It is a classical feature of focal and particularly cervical dystonia. However, the precise historical aspects of geste antagoniste still remain obscure. The goals of this review were (1) to clarify the origin of the geste antagoniste sign; (2) to identify the factors that led to its diffusion in the international literature; (3) to follow the evolution of that term across the twentieth century. We used medical and neurological French, German and English literature of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, and the PubMed database by entering the terms geste antagoniste, antagonistic gesture and sensory trick. The geste antagoniste sign is a legacy of the Paris Neurological School of the end of the nineteenth century. The term was introduced by Meige and Feindel in their 1902 book on tics, written in the vein of their master, Brissaud, who first described this sign in 1893. The almost immediate translations of this book by Giese into German and Kinnier Wilson into English contributed to the rapid spreading of the term geste antagoniste, which is still in use worldwide today. The term antagonistic gesture is the translation proposed by Kinnier Wilson, which also led to the use of the term geste antagonistique. The geste antagoniste sign has long been considered a solid argument for the psychogenic origins of dystonia until the 1980s when Marsden made strong arguments for its organic nature.

“…Foerster's approach illustrates the state of affairs during that era. Human-based research and animalbased research occurred simultaneously with the same procedures frequently being performed on both [45]. To separate exactly which discoveries were dependent on animals and which were human-based would be essentially impossible given the fact that the literature was not published with this goal in mind and the participants are dead.…”

The Development of Deep Brain Stimulation for Movement Disorders

The development of deep brain stimulation has revolutionized care for patients with movement disorders like Parkinson's disease. Many areas of science contributed to this technology but one area, the use of animal models, has been cited as vital. We review these claims as well as the history of the discoveries that eventually led to deep brain stimulation in an attempt to ascertain: 1) the contributions of animal models; 2) the contributions from humanbased research and observation; and the role of advances in the engineering, physics, and computer science. We distinguish between advances and discoveries that were, or at least appear to be, dependent on animal models and those where animals were involved but that could have occurred, and/or were occurring simultaneously, with humanbased research. We conclude that animal-based research played a role in defining gross anatomy in the 19 th and early 20 th centuries, but that essentially all subsequent advances were human-based or secondary to advances in the physical and applied sciences. This has historical, funding, and ethical implications as the development of deep brain stimulation is cited as an example of the importance of animal-based research and a reason for continued social and financial support of animal models in general as opposed to clinical research, other human-based research modalities, and the various disciplines of the physical and applied sciences.
