Towards a responsive deep brain stimulation for the treatment of essential tremor
Objective: To identify neurophysiologic markers of intention tremor in the ventral intermediate thalamic nucleus (Vim) and hand motor cortex to develop closed-loop deep brain stimulation…Neurophysiological evidence of posterior-cortical alterations in premanifest Huntington’s: An event-related brain potentials study of face and face-like objects processing
Objective: To investigate the behavioral and neurophysiological correlates of face and face-like-object recognition in premanifest Huntington's disease (preHD). Background: PreHD provide an excellent framework to…Inferring the causal interplay of motor related brain areas in the aging brain: A dynamic causal modeling (DCM) approach
Objective: To investigate the causal interplay of brain areas during the performance of a complex bimanual motor task in young and elderly subjects. Background: Coordination…TMS-EEG markers of inhibitory deficits in Huntington’s disease
Objective: Given the GABAergic nature of TMS-evoked EEG activity, we tested whether GABAergic deficits in Huntington's disease (HD) patients produce any significant change in TMS-EEG…Predictive performance of EEG theta spectral power over developing dementia in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To investigate whether changes in EEG power spectra could predict development of dementia in Parkinson's disease (PD-D). Background: Different research groups have reported, that…Inferring the coupling of motor related brain areas during paced finger tapping in Parkinson’s patients
Objective: To analyze the coupling and causal interplay of motor related brain areas in Parkinson's patients during the performance of externally and internally paced finger…Evaluating quantitative EEG (QEEG) measures to differentiate between Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients and healthy individuals
Objective: To evaluate QEEG measures for classification of Parkinson's disease(PD) patients and healthy individuals, and eventually develop a pre-clinical composite biomarker to identify patients with…Freezing of gait (FOG) in PD: Is electroencephalography (EEG) a gateway to elucidating the pathophysiology?
Objective: To assess EEG changes in PD patients during episodes of FOG. Background: FOG is a paroxysmal phenomenon, a brief episodic marked reduction in forward…Spectral analysis of rapid eye movement (REM) sleep as a potential marker of neurodegenerative disease in REM sleep behavior disorder
Objective: To investigate whether spectral analysis at baseline in rapid eye movement (REM) sleep can differentiate patients with REM sleep behavior disorder (RBD) who will…The effect of daytime working for development of sleep apnea in office workers
Objective: Nowadays sleep apnea becomes the one of the most general problem in each sphere. Every day, the role of sleep apnea in the development…
