Literature

The literature section is continuously being updated. An attempt is made to provide as comprehensive list of literature relating to the opsoclonus myoclonus syndrome as possible. Articles are superficially categorized for quick reference. Most, however, cover topics which cross over many areas relating to the syndrome. Medline data bases are periodically updated and URLs are subject to change without notice. Be sure that the article that you are attempting to link to is the one actually received. The Opsoclonus Myoclonus Support Network does not hold an opinion regarding the research presented nor its conclusions, if any.
