Tic Disorders are Associated With Lower Child and Parent Quality of Life and Worse Family Functioning.
Anxiety Symptoms Differ in Youth With and Without Tic Disorders
TLDR
It is concluded that the anxiety symptom profile differs in youth with and without tic disorders, which may have important implications for targeting treatment of anxiety in youth from the Child/Adolescent Anxiety Multimodal Study (CAMS).
Bio-behavioural research in a rare disease population: a doctoral student's experience.
TLDR
Improved knowledge and assessment of symptoms during childhood will improve the detection of health risk factors and enable earlier intervention and rare populations, such as young survivors of childhood brain tumours, deserve a voice in building the body of knowledge needed for more precise, personalised healthcare.
Children from nuclear families with bad parental relationship could develop tic symptoms
TLDR
This work aims to assess the influence of couple relationship and family structure on the onset of TD and the relationship between family environment and diagnosis of TD.
Targeted Interventions in Tourette’s using Advanced Neuroimaging and Stimulation (TITANS): study protocol for a double-blind, randomised controlled trial of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) to the supplementary motor area in children with Tourette’s syndrome
TLDR
It is hypothesised that CBIT and active rTMS to the supplementary motor area (SMA) will decrease tic severity, and be associated with changes indicative of enhanced neuroplasticity (eg, changes in in vivo metabolite concentrations and TMS neurophysiology measures).
Validation of the Anger Expression Scale for Children With Fourth and Fifth Graders: Implications for Identifying Students at Risk for Behavior Problems
TLDR
Criterion-related validity analyses indicated that Anger Expression was positively associated with aggression and externalizing problems, whereas Anger Control was related to emotion control and less internalizing behaviors.
Systematic review of co-occurring OCD and TD: Evidence for a tic-related OCD subtype?

An international perspective on Tourette syndrome: selected findings from 3500 individuals in 22 countries
TLDR
A multisite, international database of 3500 individuals diagnosed with Tourette syndrome, with wide variation among sites, can be used as the entry point for further research when large samples are studied and generalizability of results is important.
The behavioral spectrum of tic disorders: A community-based study
TLDR
The behavioral spectrum of tic disorders includes OCD, other anxiety disorders, a mood disorder, and attention-deficit and disruptive behavior disorders.
Long term clinical course of Tourette syndrome
Clinical Characteristics of Children and Adolescents with a Primary Tic Disorder
TLDR
Youth with a CTD seeking treatment for tics should be evaluated for non-OCD anxiety disorders in addition to ADHD and OCD, and motor and vocal tics with greater intensity, complexity, and interference were associated with increased impairment.

TLDR
It is suggested that TS is heterogeneous from a variety of standpoints including clinical presentation and psychopathology, and thus neuropharmacological responses and possibly even aetiological and genetic mechanisms are possible.

A National Profile of Tourette Syndrome, 2011–2012
TLDR
Tourette syndrome is characterized by co-occurring neurobehavioral and other health conditions, and poorer health, education, and family relationships, and the findings support previous recommendations to consider co-Occurring conditions in the diagnosis and treatment of Tourette syndrome.
Tic disorders and ADHD: answers from a world-wide clinical dataset on Tourette syndrome
TLDR
Clinically the findings confirm other research indicating the importance of ADHD in understanding the behavioural problems often associated with the diagnosis of TS and additional ADHD comorbidity should be taken into account in diagnosis, management, and training.
Utility of the diagnostic interview schedule for children for assessing Tourette syndrome in children.
TLDR
The study suggests that DISC has low agreement with expert clinician diagnosis of Tourette syndrome, highlighting the need for modification of the DISC and/or the identification and development of more sensitive measures for TS screening.
