Background: SC is…Effects of bilateral pallidal deep brain stimulation for chorea after pulmonary thromboendarterectomy with deep hypothermia and circulatory arrest: case report
Objective: We report bilateral pallidal deep brain stimulation (DBS) improved chorea after pulmonary thromboendarterectomy (PTE) with deep hypothermia and circulatory arrest. Background: Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary…Rice bran extract against animal model of Huntington’s disease: Possible role of neurotransmitters
