- The disconjugate nystagmus, head titubation, and torticollis of spasmus nutans have been reported as indisinguishable from those associated with glioma of the anterior visual pathway.

- In other words, the subject learned to preprogram intrasaccadic and postsaccadic disconjugate movements independent of any immediate disparity cues.

- Absence of parallel movement of the eyes indicates disconjugate gaze disturbance (Figure 12.8).

- The aim of this paper consists on the study of the following fourth-order operator: \\begin{equation}\\label{Ec::T4} T[M]\\,u(t)\\equiv u^{(4)}(t)+p_1(t)\\,u"'(t)+p_2(t)\\,u"(t)+M\\,u(t)\\,,\\ t\\in I \\equiv [a,b]\\,, \\end{equation} coupled with the two point boundary conditions: \\begin{equation}\\label{Ec::cf} u(a)=u(b)=u"(a)=u"(b)=0\\,. \\end{equation} So, we define the following space: \\begin{equation}\\label{Ec::esp} X=\\left\\lbrace u\\in C^4(I)\\quad\\mid\\quad u(a)=u(b)=u"(a)=u"(b)=0 \\right\\rbrace \\,. \\end{equation} Here and . By assuming that the second order linear differential equation \\begin{equation}\\label{Ec::2or} L_2\\, u(t)\\equiv u"(t)+p_1(t)\\,u'(t)+p_2(t)\\,u(t)=0\\,,\\quad t\\in I, \\end{equation} is disconjugate on , we characterize the parameter's set where the Green's function related to operator in is of constant sign on .
