Abstract
By analyzing the clinical data, tremor analysis results, and final diagnoses of patients
with tremor, this study aims to clarify the significance of tremor analysis and provide assistance for clinicians.
Methods: Patients who underwent tremor analysis in the electromyography laboratory of the Neurology
Department at Beijing Friendship Hospital from January 2022 to January 2024 were screened according to
inclusion and exclusion criteria. Clinical data and tremor analysis results of enrolled patients were summarized.
Comparisons were made between the clinical data and tremor analysis results of two groups--essential tremor
(ET) and Parkinson's disease (PD)--while clinical and tremor analysis findings for other tremor patients were
also summarized. Results: A total of 192 patients were enrolled in this study, including 103 cases of essential
tremor (53.6% ), 74 cases of Parkinson's disease (38.5% ), 4 cases of dystonia (2.1% ), 3 cases of peripheral
neuropathy-associated tremor (1.6% ), 3 cases of orthostatic tremor (1.6% ), 4 cases of enhanced physiological
tremor (2.1%), and 1 case of multiple system atrophy (0.5%). Comparisons between ET and PD groups revealed
statistically significant differences in age, disease duration, family history, onset site, tremor pattern, contraction
form, and presence of harmonic components (P<0.05). Significant differences in tremor frequency were observed
between the two groups under resting, postural, intentional, and 1 kg load conditions (P<0.05), while no
significant differences in tremor amplitude were found (P>0.05). Conclusion: This real-world study on tremor
analysis demonstrates the complexity and diversity of tremor-related disorders. Tremor analysis is a valuable
diagnostic tool, particularly in differentiating between ET and PD.
