Abstract

In a recent novel functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) study on adult patients with infantile nystagmus syndrome (INS), Leguire et al. claimed that the cerebellum, particularly the declive (vermis lobule 6), is involved in the INS “neural circuit.” I question this claim, and even whether such a circuit exists.
