The Role of Directional Configuration for Essential Tremor: A Single Center Experience
Objective: To describe the programming criteria and patient characteristics for use of directional versus omnidirectional configurations for deep brain stimulation (DBS) in patients with Essential…Quantitative Tremor Analysis of Functional Tremor
Objective: To compare the characteristic frequency of functional tremor with other tremor disorders using 3-D motion analysis and kinematics. Background: Functional tremor (FT) is a…Direct Targeting of the VIM Nucleus during High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) by Direct Visualization
Objective: To determine the “functional” target within VIM Nucleus of the Thalamus during HIFU with high field MRI. Background: Targeting of neuronal structures has been…Sustained Improvement in Freezing of Gait (FOG) and Treatment Satisfaction at 12 months After Initiation of Carbidopa/Levodopa Enteral Suspension (CLES) in Advanced Parkinson’s Disease (APD) Patients in USA: Interim Results from the PROviDE Study
Objective: To evaluate the long-term effectiveness of CLES on FOG and treatment satisfaction in APD patients. Background: FOG, prevalent in about 60% of APD patients,…Deep Brain Stimulation in Parkinson’s Disease: Experience of the Neurology Department of Marrakesh
Objective: The authors report the experience of the Marrakesh University Hospital in Idiopathique Parkinson's surgery. Background: The treatment ofidiopathicParkinson's disease (IPD) remains symptomatic and relies…Effects of dance and walking program on spatiotemporal gait parameters in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: Verify and compare the effects of a dance and walking program on spatiotemporal gait parameters in Parkinson’s disease (PD). Background: PD causes motor impairment,…Effect of Subthalamic Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) on Impulsive Control Disorders (ICD) and Dopamine Dysregulation Syndrome (DDS) – A Randomized Controlled Trial Evaluating Deep Brain Stimulation Using a New Multiple Source, Constant-Current Rechargeable System for Management of Symptoms of Parkinson’s Disease (INTREPID)
Objective: To evaluate impulse control in participating subjects of the INTREPID randomized controlled trial (RCT). Background: Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients undergoing treatment with either medications…The efficiency of group cognitive rehabilitation to patients with Parkinson’s disease in comparison to relaxation therapy: pilot data
Objective: The aim of this study was to compare the efficiency of group cognitive rehabilitation to patients with Parkinson´s disease (PD) in comparison to group…Smartphone Applications Are Promising Modalities for Monitoring Parkinson’s Disease (PD) Symptoms
Objective: To review use of smartphone applications to monitor and manage PD. Background: Smartphone applications successfully monitor and manage chronic diseases. For patients with PD,…Randomized controlled trial of 1Hz SMA rTMS + gait training for Freezing of Gait
Objective: To determine the effects of 1Hz supplementary motor area (SMA) repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) and gait training on freezing of gait (FOG). Background:…
