Quality of life after subthalamic stimulation depends on non-motor symptoms in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To investigate non-motor symptoms (NMS) to find contributing factors for quality of life (QoL) outcome after subthalamic nucleus (STN) deep brain stimulation (DBS) in…Improvement of saccade amplitude by the STN DBS and visual target eccentricity
Objective: To investigate whether or not the improvement of saccade amplitude by the subthalamic nucleus (STN) deep brain stimulation (DBS) is the same for to…DBS targeting: Validation of 3T MR image guided targeting using post-mortem 17T MR microscopy
Objective: This work helps validate the utility of direct targeting using 3T T1 inverted sequences with atlas application during planning for DBS electrode placement. We…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…Improving parkinsonism in DBS poor-responders by surgical lead revision of subthalamic electrodes
Objective: If subthalamic deep brain stimulation (STN-DBS) results in poor symptom control or adverse side effects at low stimulation threshold surgical lead revision for optimal…Impulse control disorders in Parkinson’s disease – Determinants and effect of DBS
Objective: To assess the frequency and pattern of impulse control disorders (ICDs) and ICD-related behaviours (ICD-RBs) in Indian patients with idiopathic Parkinson's disease and to…Dopamine and task-dependent evolution of oscillatory activity in the subthalamic nucleus (STN) and coupling between the STN local field potential and muscle activity in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To investigate how subthalamic nucleus local field potentials (STN-LFP) and coupling between STN-LFP and electromyogram (EMG) in static and phasic movements are modulated by…Lead angle matters: Side effects of deep brain stimulation improved with adjustment of lead angle
Objective: A variety of technical considerations influence the outcome of Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS). We highlight a case where revising the angle of approach significantly…Longitudinal changes of speech and voice disorders following subthalamic stimulation in Parkinson’s disease patients
Objective: To elucidate longitudinal changes of speech and voice disorders in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients treated with subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation (STN-DBS). Background: Previously,…Speech 10 years post bilateral STN-DBS for Parkinson’s disease
Objective: This study reports on the type and severity of speech problems up to 10 years after bilateral deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the subthalamic…
