Over recent decades, a growing body of evidence has emerged in support of the role of altered sensorimotor integration in the pathophysiology of various neurological conditions and movement disorders, particularly bradykinesia, tremor, and dystonia. However, the various causes and mechanisms underlying altered sensorimotor integration in movement disorders are still not entirely understood. The lack of complete insight into the pathophysiological role of altered sensorimotor integration in movement disorders is certainly due to the heterogeneity of movement disorders as well as to the variable occurrence of neurodegenerative phenomena, even in idiopathic movement disorders, which contribute to pathophysiology in a complex and often not easily interpretable way. Clarifying the possible relationship between neurodegenerative phenomena and sensorimotor deficits in movement disorders and other neurological conditions may guide the development of a more detailed disease prognosis and lead, perhaps, to the implementation of novel and individualized therapeutic interventions.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/brainsci10110808","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,11,1]],"date-time":"2020-11-01T20:05:25Z","timestamp":1604261125000},"page":"808","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Neurodegeneration and Sensorimotor Function"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"10","author":[{"given":"Matteo","family":"Bologna","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Human Neurosciences, Sapienza University of Rome, 00,185 Rome, Italy"},{"name":"IRCCS Neuromed Pozzilli (IS), 86077 Pozzilli, Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Giulia","family":"Paparella","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"IRCCS Neuromed Pozzilli (IS), 86077 Pozzilli, Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,11,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1122","DOI":"10.1016\/j.cell.2016.02.038","article-title":"Movement: How the Brain Communicates with the World","volume":"164","author":"Schwartz","year":"2016","journal-title":"Cell"},{"key":"ref_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1680","DOI":"10.1016\/j.clinph.2010.02.166","article-title":"Stretch sensitive reflexes as an adaptive mechanism for maintaining limb stability","volume":"121","author":"Shemmell","year":"2010","journal-title":"Clin.
