Abstract:
AbstractPremonitory urges are uncomfortable physical sensations preceding tics that occur in most individuals with a chronic tic disorder. The Premonitory Urge for Tics Scale (PUTS) is the most frequently used self-report measure to assess the severity of premonitory urges. We aimed to evaluate the psychometric properties of the PUTS in the largest sample size to date (n = 656), in children aged 3–16 years, from the baseline measurement of the longitudinal European Multicenter Tics in Children Study (EMTICS). Our psychometric evaluation was done in three age-groups: children aged 3–7 years (n = 103), children between 8 and 10 years (n = 253), and children aged 11–16 years (n = 300). The PUTS exhibited good internal reliability in children and adolescents, also under the age of 10, which is younger than previously thought. We observed significant but small correlations between the severity of urges and severity of tics and obsessive–compulsive symptoms, and between severity of urges and ratings of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder and internalizing and externalizing behaviors, however, only in children of 8–10 years. Consistent with previous results, the 10th item of the PUTS correlated less with the rest of the scale compared to the other items and, therefore, should not be used as part of the questionnaire. We found a two-factor structure of the PUTS in children of 11 years and older, distinguishing between sensory phenomena related to tics, and mental phenomena as often found in obsessive–compulsive disorder. The age-related differences observed in this study may indicate the need for the development of an age-specific questionnaire to assess premonitory urges.

Abstract:
Abstract Causative meaning including, but not limited to, causation, prevention, and enabling is realized in language use through force construal. Force is explored in this article through consideration of narratives on Tourette Syndrome, a disorder that is largely characterized by its constitutive actions (vocal and motor tics). To account for force construal, the article proposes a merger of a vector model for the description of force in language and cognition and a lexical semantic model of ontologies and construals. Force is accounted for in terms of a number of configurations (cause, enable, prevent, withstand, and despite) that are realized through construal operations. This merger of explanatory models allows nuanced and flexible description of forceful meaning in actual language use.

Abstract:
Tics in Tourette syndrome (TS) are often preceded by “premonitory urges”: annoying feelings or bodily sensations. We hypothesized that, by reducing annoyance of premonitory urges, tic behaviour may be reinforced. In a2×2experimental design in healthy participants, we studied the effects of premonitory urges (operationalized as air puffs on the eye) and tic behaviour (deliberate eye blinking after a puff or a sound) on changes in subjective evaluation of air puffs and EMG responses on the m. orbicularis oculi. The experimental group with air puffs + blinking experienced a decrease in subjective annoyance of the air puff, but habituation of the EMG response was blocked and length of EMG response increased. In the control groups (air puffs without instruction to blink, no air puffs), these effects were absent. When extrapolating to the situation in TS patients, these findings suggest that performance of tics is reinforced by reducing the subjective annoyance of premonitory urges, while simultaneously preventing habituation or even inducing sensitisation of the physiological motor response.

Abstract:
Most patients with Tourette syndrome report characteristic sensory experiences (premonitory urges) associated with the expression of tic symptoms. Despite the central role of these experiences to the clinical phenomenology of Tourette syndrome, little is known about their underlying brain processes. In the present article we present the results of a systematic literature review of the published studies addressing the pathophysiological mechanisms of premonitory urges. We identified some preliminary evidence for specific alterations in sensorimotor processing at both cortical and subcortical levels. A better insight into the brain correlates of premonitory urges could lead to the identification of new targets to treat the sensory initiators of tics in patients with Tourette syndrome.

Abstract:
Objective In patients with Tourette syndrome and other primary tic disorders (PTDs), tics are typically preceded by premonitory urges (PUs). To date, only a few studies have investigated the location and frequency of PUs, and contrary to clinical experience, the results suggest that PUs are not located in the same anatomic region as the tics. This study aimed to further explore PU location and frequency in detail, differentiating the kind and complexity of the corresponding tics, in a large sample of patients with PTD.Methods A total of 291 adult (≥ 18 years) patients with a confirmed diagnosis of chronic PTD were included. The study was conducted online, assement included tics and the general characterization of PUs and a sophisticated body drawing for locating PUs.Results We found that PUs were located in the same body area as, or in direct proximity to, the corresponding tic. Most frequently, PUs were located in the face and at the head (62.1%). Compared with simple tics, complex (motor and vocal) tics were more often preceded by a PU; but there was no difference in PU frequency observed between motor tics and vocal tics. PUs were more often experienced at the front than at the back of the body (73% vs. 27%), while there was no difference between the right and left sides (41.6% vs. 41.3%).Conclusion The strong association between PU and tic location further supports the hypothesis that PUs represent the core of PTD. Accordingly, future therapies should focus on treating PUs to achieve greater tic reduction.

Abstract:
Sensory and sensorimotor gating deficits characterize both Tourette syndrome (TS) and schizophrenia. Premonitory urges (PU) in TS can be assessed with the University of Sao Paulo Sensory Phenomena Scale (USP-SPS) and the Premonitory Urge for Tics Scale (PUTS). In 40 subjects (TS: n = 18; healthy comparison subjects [HCS]: n = 22), we examined the relationship between PU scores and measures of sensory gating using the USP-SPS, PUTS, Sensory Gating Inventory (SGI), and Structured Interview for Assessing Perceptual Anomalies (SIAPA), as well symptom severity scales. SGI, but not SIAPA, scores were elevated in TS subjects (p < 0.0003). In TS subjects, USP-SPS and PUTS scores correlated significantly with each other, but not with the SGI or SIAPA; neither PU nor sensory gating scales correlated significantly with symptom severity. TS subjects endorse difficulties in sensory gating and the SGI may be valuable for studying these clinical phenomena.

Abstract:

Among some researchers, there is an emerging conceptualization of chronic tic disorders (CTDs) as conditions that are partially rooted in avoidance of tic-related private experiences (i.e., painful or difficult thoughts and feelings) and internal sensations (i.e., premonitory urges to tic). The first specific aim of the present research was to investigate the possibility that experiential avoidance is related to tic severity and perceived quality of life in individuals with CTDs. The second aim was to determine whether the efficacy of Habit Reversal Training (HRT), the most prevalent and effective behavioral intervention for CTDs to date, might be enhanced by combining it with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), an intervention that directly targets experiential avoidance. These aims were addressed by conducting two related studies. Study I, an online survey, included 239 adults (M = 37.6 years; SD = 13.8 years) who reported having been previously diagnosed with a CTD. Results showed that levels of premonitory urges, as well as both general and tic-specific experiential avoidance, were significantly positively related to tic severity. General and tic-specific experiential avoidance were also significantly negatively related to perceived quality of life. Psychometric analyses of two novel measures developed for Study I (i.e., the Yale Global Tic Severity Scale-Self-Report Version and the Acceptance and Action Questionnaire-Tic-Specific Version) demonstrated excellent internal consistency and convergent validity. Study II, a multi-site pilot investigation, involved 13 adolescents (M = 15.4 years; SD = 1.3 years) who were treated with either HRT alone or a novel HRT+ACT intervention. Results suggest that the HRT+ACT treatment is feasible, highly acceptable to both patients and parents, and as effective as HRT alone at reducing tic severity from pre-treatment through week 22 follow-up. Participants in both groups reported clinically significant post-treatment decreases in general and tic-specific experiential avoidance and improvements in overall functioning. Researchers concluded that experiential avoidance plays an important role in tic expression and overall functioning for individuals with CTDs. Results support additional development and testing of the promising HRT+ACT intervention, to evaluate its efficacy alone and in comparison to other relevant psychosocial and pharmacological interventions.

Abstract:
Abstract This chapter summarizes theexisting literature on the long-term course of Tourette syndrome (TS). Ticsymptoms typically reach their worst-ever severity between ages 10–12 years.Children with tics tend to become more aware of premonitory urges and displaymore complex tics as they grow older. One-half to two-thirds of children withTS experience a significant decline of tic symptoms that roughly coincides withadolescence. There is no evidence to suggest that pharmacological or behavioraltreatments for tics affect long-term prognosis, although research examining thequestion is lacking. Comorbid attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder symptoms,when they occur, typically precede the onset of tics, and comorbid obsessive–compulsivesymptoms (OCS) usually follow the onset of tics. The presence of OCS inadulthood is highly correlated with the persistence of tic symptoms intoadulthood and not strongly related to the presence of OCS in childhood. Poorfine motor skills are associated with the persistence of tic symptoms intoadulthood. Smaller caudate volumes are associated with the persistence of ticsymptoms into adulthood.

Abstract:
Tourette’s disorder requires the presence of multiple motor tics and at least one vocal tic that have been present for at least one year. A tic is a sudden, rapid, recurrent, nonrhythmic motor movement or vocalization. Tics are often associated with a premonitory urge and may be temporarily suppressed. They typically begin between the age of four and six years, peak in severity in early adolescence, and then diminish. The majority of individuals spontaneously achieve remission by early adulthood. Because tic disorders commonly co-occur with psychiatric disorders, they should be screened for in every psychiatric interview. Treatment should begin with psychoeducation and focus on symptom reduction rather than remission. Behavioral interventions, including habit reversal therapy, may be considered. Medications, such as antipsychotics and alpha2 adrenergic agonists, should be considered if tics cause severe impairment and are moderate to severe.

Abstract This chapter summarizes the highly valuable contribution of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to the understanding of the functional anatomy of tics and related disorders. Structural MRI studies have revealed altered striatal volumes in children and adults with Tourette syndrome (TS), although results are inconsistent. Cortical thinning in sensorimotor regions has been detected in children and adults with TS, with correspondence between cortical region and types of tics. Whereas adults with TS show cortical thinning and reduced gray matter volume in prefrontal regions, suggesting a failure in neural compensation to control tics into adulthood, results from children with TS are mixed. Functional MRI (fMRI) studies examining tic-related activity suggest that the supplementary motor area is involved in the premonitory urge, whereas fMRI studies examining motor and cognitive control in TS report inconsistent findings. Functional connectivity MRI studies suggest complex differences in brain networks. This chapter discusses limitations of the existing studies and future directions, including the necessity to mitigate motion artifacts because they can cause systematic alterations in MRI measures.

Abstract:
Tourette’s syndrome (TS) is a neuropsychiatric disorder of childhood onset characterized by the presence of motor and vocal tics for a duration of at least 1 year. Tics are typically brief and stereotypical movements (eg, eye blinking, head jerks) or vocalizations (eg, throat clearing, grunting), but they can also be more complex movements involving multiple muscle groups and combinations of movements and sounds. There is a great range of tic severity. Tics can be so subtle or occur so infrequently as to be unnoticeable, even to the person with the tics. However, tics can also be so intense and frequent that they are readily noticeable by others, and they can be disruptive of daily activities. Indeed, in some cases (eg, severe head jerks), tics can cause pain or physical injury (eg, cervical disc and spine damage). Tics usually begin in childhood; the average age at diagnosis is 7 years. They reach peak severity in the early teen years and then lessen in intensity and frequency during young adulthood (Leckman et al., 2001). Tics wax and wane in severity, worsening with excitement and stress and improving during calm, focused activities. Coprolalia and its motor counterpart copropraxia (uttering obscene words or making obscene gestures, respectively) are uncommon symptoms, occurring in less than 10% of patients with TS and are not required for a diagnosis of TS (Robertson and Stern, 1998). Many patients describe a sensation or urge prior to tic occurrence, commonly referred to as a premonitory sensation or urge (Miguel et a1., 2000). Even though tics are considered involuntary, they can be voluntarily suppressed for short periods of time. Prevalence estimates of TS have varied and depend a great deal on the threshold for diagnosis and setting in which cases are identified. A review of the many epidemiologic studies suggests that 0.1% to 1% of people are affected with TS (Scahill et al., 2005). Despite this variability in specific rates, epidemiologic studies have consistently identified that males are more commonly affected than females, children are more frequently affected than adults, and that milder forms of TS are more common than severe forms.
