Biopsychosocial interplay of personal injury insurance, legal frameworks, and functional neurological disorder: an emerging perspective on recovery and disability determinants

PubMed - functional neurological disorder· Published 17 Oct 2026 Relevancy: 98%

Functional Neurological Disorder (FND) is a disabling neuropsychiatric condition marked by motor/sensory symptoms not explained by neurological illness. Perceptions of medically unexplained disability, such as FND, are shaped by their social contexts. For example, the introduction of workmen's compensation legislation (late 19c) prompted labels such as 'compensation neurosis'. Since the mid 2000s, a biopsychosocial understanding of FND has developed, offering a more nuanced lens through which to...

Predicting the photovoltaic and optoelectronic potentials of eco-friendly kesterites Ag 2 PdMX 4 (M = Sn, Ge; X = S, Se) through first-principles calculations

PubMed - functional neurological disorder· Published 17 Oct 2026 Relevancy: 0%

Silver-based kesterite chalcogenides have emerged as attractive substitutes for conventional Cu-based solar absorbers because of their reduced cation disorder, improved electronic properties, and photovoltaic potential. The kesterite compounds Ag(2)Pd(Sn,Ge)X(4) (X = S, Se) were investigated via density functional theory (DFT) calculations and were found to be stable. The structural properties were computed using the GGA-PBEsol functional, while the electronic properties were predicted using the...

Lithium Makes the Difference Evolution of Lithium Vacancy Disorder during Temperature-Induced Phase Transitions of the Li-Ion Conductor Li(4)SnS(4)

PubMed - functional neurological disorder· Published 17 Oct 2026 Relevancy: 0%

Sulfide-based lithium-ion solid electrolytes are promising candidates for solid-state batteries due to their high ionic conductivities, although they typically exhibit high moisture sensitivity. Li(4)SnS(4) has recently attracted scientific interest because it exhibits higher moisture resistance than most other sulfide electrolytes. Two orthorhombic Li(4)SnS(4) polymorphs (α and β) are known, yet their temperature-dependent phase behavior remains unexplored. Differential scanning calorimetry and...

"I swear it's not Tourette's!" - it is time to rethink coprolalia in Tourette syndrome

PubMed - functional neurological disorder· Published 17 Oct 2026 Relevancy: 63%

Coprolalia is a relatively rare type of complex vocal tic in people with Tourette syndrome (TS). In the general population, however, it is believed that coprolalia is the most typical and common symptom resulting in the stereotype of TS as the "swearing disease". Swearing, however, also occurs as a "normal" expression of negative emotions and thus occurs more often in people with impulse control problems. It is believed that there is a continuum reaching from voluntary to involuntary swearing....

A systematic review to characterize functional tic-like behaviors

PubMed - functional neurological disorder· Published 17 Oct 2026 Relevancy: 91%

CONCLUSIONS: While sharing some similarities, FTLBs have a distinct clinical presentation from TS. There is some evidence to inform treatment approaches, but findings are complicated by the retrospective nature of most extant reports. Future research is essential to characterize longitudinal trajectories, underlying mechanisms, and evaluation of targeted interventions in randomized clinical trials.

VPS13A Disease (Chorea-Acanthocytosis) in Puerto Rico; New Genetic and Clinical Observations

PubMed - functional seizures· Published 17 Oct 2026 Relevancy: 72%

CONCLUSION: The presence of these probable founder mutations could explain the apparently increased prevalence in Puerto Rico; half of the described variants are newly described mutations and half have been previously reported. Enhanced clinical awareness of the spectrum of presenting symptoms and diagnostic clues, and improved access to genetic testing are essential for timely diagnosis in this population.

Abdominal Tics in Children and Adolescents: A Phenomenology-First Diagnostic Framework and Differential Diagnosis

PubMed - functional neurological disorder· Published 17 Oct 2026 Relevancy: 88%

CONCLUSIONS: A phenomenology-first, red-flag-guided approach can improve diagnostic clarity and help clinicians avoid both reflexive investigation and premature attribution of organic disease to tics. This review provides a practical clinical triage framework for determining when an abdominal movement behaves like a tic, when targeted neurological or gastrointestinal investigation is indicated and when management can follow established tic-disorder principles.

Habitual Diet, Gut Microbiome Dysbiosis, and alpha-Synucleinopathy Conversion in Isolated Rapid Eye Movement (REM) Sleep Behavior Disorder

PubMed - functional neurological disorder· Published 17 Oct 2026 Relevancy: 28%

CONCLUSIONS: Habitual diet in iRBD is associated with gut microbiome dysbiosis and predicts neurodegenerative progression. These findings highlight diet-microbiome interactions as modifiable targets for intervention in prodromal α-synucleinopathy. © 2026 The Author(s).
