Results from a double-blind trial of pallidal DBS for Tourette’s syndrome: Are there any predictors of surgery outcome?
Objective: To explore whether individual patient characteristics can indicate response to treatment in a trial of bilateral globus pallidus internus (GPi) deep brain stimulation (DBS)…Objective methods for quantifying the deep brain stimulation (DBS) efficacy in subthalamic-nuclei (STN) neurons with microelectrode recording (MER) technology
Objective: To design a computational modeling to develop a new diagnostic tool for effective neuro-medical-diagnostics for end users, to investigate and evaluate the potential benefits…Three-dimensional cytoarchitecture of the basal ganglia: Clinical applications of a computational pipeline for histology to MRI registration
Objective: Use modified histological techniques and a computational registration pipeline to delineate accurately post-operative 3D basal ganglia anatomy in DBS implants. Background: Stereotaxy is based…Longterm outcome of cognition following subthalamic deep brain stimulation in Parkinson´s disease
Objective: Longterm, “real-life” assessment of cognitive evolution following subthalamic (STN) deep brain stimulation (DBS) in patients suffering from Parkinson´s disease. Background: Anecdotal reports have speculated…Pallidal deep brain stimulation improves dystonia in Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome
Objective: To describe a patient with a rare genetic disorder, Woodhouse-Sakati Syndrome, treated with deep brain stimulation (DBS) for dystonia. Background: Woodhouse-Sakati Syndrome (WSS) is…Speech and voice range profile in patients with Parkinson’s disease with deep brain stimulation: Preliminary data
Objective: To assess the use of Voice Range Profile(VRP) and Speech Range Profile(SRP) in the evaluation of patients with on and off Deep brain stimulation(DBS).…Effects of subthalamic deep brain stimulation in motor and nonmotor function in Parkinson’s disease patients with parkin mutation
Objective: The aim of our study was to evaluate prospectively the changes in motor, nonmotor symptoms (NMS) and quality of life produced by subthalamic deep…Non-motor outcomes of subthalamic stimulation in Parkinson’s disease depend on the location of active contacts
Objective: To investigate the impact of active electrode contact location on non-motor outcomes in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) and subthalamic nucleus (STN) deep brain…
