Pallidal DBS and pallidotomy alter cortical synchronization in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To investigate electrophysiologic characteristics of sensorimotor cortical activity in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) undergoing globus pallidus deep brain stimulation (GPi DBS) or radiofrequency…Two years after unilateral Forel’s H campotomy for Parkinson’s disease: Quality of life, motor and cognitive outcomes of eleven patients
Objective: To provide a thorough assessment of the effects of unilateral Forel's H campotomy on Parkinson's disease patients. Background: Since its proposal in 1963, Forel's…Glutathione status in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: Describe measures of glutathione (GSH) status in a cohort of individuals with Parkinson's disease (PD). Background: It is well established that redox stress contributes…Recruitment of single subthalamic neurons for kinematic control of hand and feet movements employs different strategies
Objective: To understand single unit recruitment strategies for upper and lower extremity movements in the human subthalamic nucleus (STN), which is the main target for…Essential tremor: Characterization according to their phenotypes and their association with Parkinsonian signs
Objective: To evaluate clinical and neurophysiological features of ET and their phenotypes: classic (ET/Cl), ET with resting tremor (ET/RT), head (ET/H), voice (TE/V), chin (ET/Ch),…Freezing of gait (FOG) in PD: Is electroencephalography (EEG) a gateway to elucidating the pathophysiology?
Objective: To assess EEG changes in PD patients during episodes of FOG. Background: FOG is a paroxysmal phenomenon, a brief episodic marked reduction in forward…Digitizing tablet and Fahn-Tolosa-Marín tremor ratings have comparable minimum detectable change
Objective: To determine if a digitizing tablet is better than Fahn-Tolosa-Marín part B (FTM-B) ratings in detecting changes in essential tremor (ET) that exceed random…Is the selection of stepping impaired in PD in ON state?
Objective: To compare the selection of stepping actions during a probability reaction time task in people with Parkinson's disease (PD) in the ON state with…Using wavelet coherence analysis to distinguish between tremor types
Objective: To distinguish between types of tremor using wavelet coherence analysis. Background: To discriminate between tremor types can be challenging in clinical practice. Standard electromyographic…Does dopamine affect the selection of stepping actions in PD?
Objective: To compare the selection of stepping actions during a probabilistic reaction time task in the ON state with the OFF state in people with…
