We measured wrist tremor and forearm EMG in 18 patients with essential tremor on two occasions separated by periods of 4 to 8 years. The frequency of tremor decreased 0.28 Hz to 3.21 Hz in 10 patients and changed less than 0.25 Hz in the remaining eight patients. Thus, the frequency of essential tremor may decrease over time.

Case Reports
Toxoplasmosis with early intracerebral hemorrhage in a patient with the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome.
Cerebral hemorrhage is a rare complication of the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. We report a case of multifocal hemorrhage in a 37-year-old homosexual man with cerebral toxoplasmosis. Histopathologic examination, performed at cerebral autopsy, confirmed the findings on CT and MRI.
