- 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.
- 1999, R. John Leigh, David S. Zee, The Neurology of Eye Movements, →ISBN:
- In other words, the subject learned to preprogram intrasaccadic and postsaccadic disconjugate movements independent of any immediate disparity cues.
- 2014, Erwin B Montgomery, Intraoperative Neurophysiological Monitoring for Deep Brain Stimulation, →ISBN:
- Absence of parallel movement of the eyes indicates disconjugate gaze disturbance (Figure 12.8).
- (mathematics) Having at most one fewer zeros (including multiplicities) than the dimension of the problem space.

- 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 .
