Karl Marx, Rosa Luxemburg, and Deep Brain Stimulation: is there a connection?
Objective: To investigate possible reasons behind some practices of deep brain stimulation (DBS) hardware providers. Background: The global success of DBS in movement disorders has…Successful treatment of secondary dystonia with deep brain stimulation of the globus pallidus internus
Objective: Improving targeting accuracy in the treatment of secondary dystonia with DBS of GPi Background: Dystonia is a very disabling disease. Deep brain stimulation (DBS) of…Impact of pallidal deep brain stimulation on activities of daily living in patients with craniocervical dystonia – a multi-center survey
Objective: To assess the impact of pallidal deep brain stimulation (DBS) on activities of daily living (ADL) in patients with primary craniocervical dystonia (CD). Background:…Appendectomy and risk of Parkinson’s disease: A meta-analysis using real-world evidence
Objective: This meta-analysis is aimed to explore the association between appendectomy and Parkinson’s disease (PD) risk. Background: Parkinson’s disease is recently recognized as a systematic…Long-term Motor and Non-motor Outcomes in Parkinson’s Disease Following Deep Brain Stimulation
Objective: We aimed to monitor long-term motor, non-motor, and quality of life outcomes in PD patients with STN and GPi DBS. Background: Both STN and…A case of dystonia with dystonic tremor treated with DBS targeting the VOA and VIM thalamus
Objective: To report a case of early onset dystonia with dystonic tremor secondary to pediatric stroke of the basal ganglia treated with alternative deep brain…Metabolic Surgery in the adjuvant management of Parkinson’s Disease
Objective: To explore the effect of metabolic surgery (Bipartition of Intestinal Transit) on Parkinson's Disease (PD). To compare the effects observed with those presented in…The origin of stimulation-induced dysarthria in ET patients after VIM/PSA-DBS: Atactic, spastic or both?
Objective: To investigate the origin of stimulation-induced dysarthria (SID) in essential tremor (ET) patients with bilateral deep brain stimulation (DBS) in the ventral intermediate nucleus…Strategies for Implementation of a Quality Improvement Registry for DBS in Parkinson’s Disease
Objective: To describe the implementation of a quality improvement (QI) patient registry for deep brain stimulation (DBS) in Parkinson's disease (PD). Background: QI projects are…Effects of rechargeable battery of deep brain stimulation on the quality of life and satisfaction in patients with Parkinson’s disease
Objective: We aimed to compare the quality of life and the satisfaction for the deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery between patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD)…
