A pilot study of horizontal current steering with chronically implanted segmented electrodes for STN-DBS in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To evaluate the effect of horizontal current steering using a chronically implanted segmented lead and multiple independent current source technology on clinical effect and…Employing intraoperative microelectrode recordings during "asleep" deep brain stimulation surgery of the globus pallidus internus in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To employ a means of implanting DBS leads to the GPi in individuals with Parkinson's disease who are undergoing the surgery under general anesthesia…When DBS can be of benefit in Huntington’s disease
Objective: To report on a patient with HD and disabling truncal dystonia who was treated with bilateral GPi DBS. Background: HD is an autosomal-dominant disorder…Emotional valence and arousal ratings from rewarding and fearful stimuli are not influenced by levodopa in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To analyze the effects of levodopa on affective ratings of emotional valence and arousal to rewarding, fearful and neutral stimuli in PD patients and…The contribution of the subthalamic nucleus in gait initiation of subjects with Parkinson’s disease
Objective: We investigated the contribution of the subthalamic nucleus (STN) in gait initiation of subjects with Parkinson's disease (PD). Background: Gait initiation is the transient…Single unit activity of globus pallidus during voluntary movements in patients with cervical dystonia
Objective: To reveal the electrophysiological mechanism of voluntary movements with and without neck muscle exertion in patients with cervical dystonia. Background: Globus pallidus, as part…Impulsive action tendencies in GPi DBS Parkinson’s patients
Objective: To test the effects of GPi DBS on susceptibility to impulsive action errors and the proficiency of reactive inhibitory control to counteract interference from…Pallidal low frequency activity correlates with dystonic symptoms in patients with cervical dystonia
Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the potential association between pallidal 4–12 Hz activity and symptom severity as quantified by the Toronto…Therapy escalation in Parkinson’s disease – The TEMP trial, a regional survey
Objective: To assess socio-demographic and disease specific data in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) before and one year after therapy escalation with subcutaneous apomorphine (APO),…The study of clinical outcome of deep brain stimulation for the idiopathic Parkinson’s disease at 6 months follow-up
Objective: The aim of this study was to assess the motor and psychiatric outcomes at 6 months after subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation (STN-DBS) in…
