Post-Deep Brain Stimulation Psychosis in Parkinson’s Disease: A Meta-analysis
Objective: This systematic review and meta-analysis was designed to evaluate risk factors and correlates of psychosis in PD after DBS surgery. Background: Deep brain stimulation…Distance to white matter tracts predicts STN deep brain stimulation outcome of tremor and dysarthria in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To establish the association between the distance of subthalamic nucleus (STN) deep brain stimulation (DBS) electrode contact points to relevant white matter tracts and…Poor responders to STN DBS in Parkinson’s disease: 1 year follow-up study
Objective: To determine which factors contribute to a poor outcome at 1 year after Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) of the Subthalamic Nucleus (STN). Background: The…Could the rate of dopaminergic medications reduction affect outcome after STN-DBS?
Objective: A retrospective analysis of the rate of dopaminergic drugs reduction following subthalamic nucleus Deep Brain Stimulation (STN-DBS) in a group of Parkinson’s disease patients…Symptom specified target and procedure selection for Parkinson’s disease: A case report
Objective: To examine the clinical benefits and side effects of combined stereotactic surgery, namely ventralis intermedius (VIM) thalamotomy and bilateral asymmetric GPi/STN DBS, for Parkinson's…Biofabricated tissue constructs to recapitulate the anatomy and functionality of the nigrostriatal pathway in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: 1) Biofabricate constructs that mimic the cytoarchitecture and function of the nigrostriatal pathway, and 2) Microinject constructs to assess restoration of dopaminergic input to…Cortical and brainstem neurodegeneration associate with the clinical severity in spinocerebellar ataxia patients
Objective: The aim of the study was to know the association of degree of atrophy in brain areas with clinical severity in SCA patients. Background:…Intellectual disability with spastic ataxia: Atypical Infantile neuroaxonal dystrophy with absent spheroids
Objective: Introduction Developmental regression with spastic ataxia is a syndrome with differentials being leukodystrophy, HSP, Frederich’s ataxia, ARSACS, cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis etc.Neuronal brain iron deposition is…A clinical and pathological study of small fibers in Friedreich´s Ataxia
Objective: To investigate the small fibers pathology in Friedreich´s Ataxia (FRDA). Background: FRDA is an inherited movement disorder caused by homozygous GAA expansions in the…Pathophysiologic insights into ataxia and spasticity through structural imaging of a spinocerebellar ataxia type 7 (SCA7) cohort
Objective: Correlate clinical measures of ataxia and spasticity in a SCA7 cohort with the pattern and severity of atrophy of grey matter (GM) and white…
