Objective: To describe an atypical case of paroxysmal kinesigenic dyskinesia (PKD) due to a novel PRRT2 mutation. Background: PRRT2 gene mutations have been reported in a…Clinical outcome of subthalamic deep brain stimulation in Parkinson’s disease – The Helsinki experience
Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and adverse effects of subthalamic deep brain stimulation (STN-DBS) in patients with advanced Parkinson's disease (PD) and the possible correlation…How many and which kind of Parkinson’s disease patients need deep brain stimulation surgery? An evaluation based on clinical observation of patients with disease history of 15th year or more
Objective: To grasp real demand of deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery in a substantial Parkinson's disease (PD) population. Background: DBS surgery has become frequently performed…Is inter-limb coupling modified by subthalamic deep brain stimulation and dopaminergic medication in Parkinson’s disease?
Objective: We characterized different aspects of bimanual coordination in patients with PD, including inter-limb coupling, and then determined whether they were altered by therapeutic modulation…Tractography patterns of subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation
Objective: To assess the connectivity patterns that characterize clinically beneficial electrodes in Parkinson's disease patients, after deep brain stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus. Background: Deep…
