The forearm rolling test and its variant, the finger rolling test, is one such. These tests are simple and only take 5\u201310 s to perform. Their sensitivity has varied in different studies but in general both are more likely to be abnormal in a patient with a focal brain lesion than abnormal power, tone and reflexes. The finger rolling test is more sensitive than forearm rolling. Furthermore, an abnormal response on testing forearm and finger rolling has a high specificity for the presence of a focal brain lesion.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1136\/jnnp.2009.200121","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2010,2,4]],"date-time":"2010-02-04T01:59:54Z","timestamp":1265248794000},"page":"39-42","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["The forearm and finger rolling tests"],"prefix":"10.1136","volume":"10","author":[{"given":"Neil E","family":"Anderson","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"239","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2010,2,3]]},"reference":[{"key":"2024052910400554000_10.1.39.1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1596","DOI":"10.1212\/WNL.43.8.1596","article-title":"Asymmetry of forearm rolling as a sign of unilateral cerebral dysfunction","volume":"43","author":"Sawyer","year":"1993","journal-title":"Neurology"},{"key":"2024052910400554000_10.1.39.2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"2299","DOI":"10.1212\/WNL.45.12.2299","article-title":"Forearm-rolling test","volume":"45","author":"Yamamoto","year":"1995","journal-title":"Neurology"},{"key":"2024052910400554000_10.1.39.3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"337","DOI":"10.1017\/S0317167100002201","article-title":"Tests of motor function in patients suspected of having mild unilateral cerebral lesions","volume":"29","author":"Teitelbaum","year":"2002","journal-title":"Can J Neurol Sci"},{"key":"2024052910400554000_10.1.39.4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/jnnp.2004.043679"}],"container-title":["Practical Neurology"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/syndication.highwire.org\/content\/doi\/10.1136\/jnnp.2009.200121","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2024,5,29]],"date-time":"2024-05-29T17:40:14Z","timestamp":1717004414000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/pn.bmj.com\/lookup\/doi\/10.1136\/jnnp.2009.200121"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2010,2]]},"references-count":4,"journal-issue":{"issue":"1","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2010,2,3]]},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2010,2]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1136\/jnnp.2009.200121"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1136\/jnnp.2009.200121","relation":{},"ISSN":["1474-7758","1474-7766"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1474-7758","type":"print"},{"value":"1474-7766","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2010,2]]}}}
