Abstract
BACKGROUND: Essential Tremor (ET) is one of the most common movement disorders but many controversies still exist in regards to its definition and pathophysiology. In view of the recent published criteria by the Tremor Task Force of the International Parkinson's and Movement Disorders Society (IPMDS), we intended to analyze if this has changed our view of ET and if new developments have arisen since. METHODS: A Medline search for English-written articles was done on June 15, 2019 using the keyword "Essential Tremor". Publications from November 2017 (publication date of the new tremor classification) were taken into account. Reviews, letters and original studies relevant to the subject were selected and reviewed according to the following themes: clinical characteristics, epidemiology, genetics, pathology, biomarkers and treatment. RESULTS: Out of 132 publications the most relevant articles were selected and reviewed (total of 65 articles). The great majority of these studies focused on surgical treatments (new targets, new technologies) while relatively few articles addressed epidemiology, pathology and pathophysiology. CONCLUSIONS: The use of the new classification is not commonly used still, excepting more recent studies on therapeutics. This is in keeping with diverse opinions and criticisms reported by the IPMDS task force members themselves. One important change has been validating ET as a heterogeneous condition and defining the ET-plus category. We propose a further sub-group classification derived from the new definition of ET-plus.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; both teacher heads agree on what is shown here.
