Surgical Therapy for Tremor in Multiple Sclerosis
Neurol 57:1876-1882, Matsumoto,J.,et al, 2001
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
1) QMA is a reliable, objective and valid measure of MS tremor that should be used in a clinical trial. 2) The box and blocks test can detect the improvement in prehensile function that follows surgery, but standard disability scales are po orly responsive to this change. 3) Preoperative QMA values may predict which patients are most amenable to functional improvement after surgery.
