Safety of Unilateral and Bilateral DBS implants in ET: Preliminary results from Product Surveillance Registry
Objective: To compare the safety of unilateral (Uni) to bilateral (Blt) DBS implants in Essential Tremor (ET). Background: DBS is an effective therapy in reducing…Spinal cord stimulation improves freezing of gait in Parkinson’s disease in chronic implanted stn-dbs patients: A case report
Objective: The aim of our study was to evaluate further the potential role of spinal cord stimulation (SCS) as a treatment for gait disturbances and…The effect of anodal transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) on sequential motor skill learning in persons with Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To examine the potential effect of tDCS on the acquisition of implicit sequential motor skill learning in persons with PD (pwPD). Background: Due to…Minimal impact of “interleaving” on neuromodulation device battery drain when interleave frequency is halved
Objective: To contrast neurostimulator battery decay subsequent to the implementation of interleaving with that prior to interleaving. Background: Neurostimulators permit “interleaving”, which allows different same-lead…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…Improvement of impulse control disorder in Parkinson’s disease patients treated with subthalamic nucleus stimulation
Objective: To find effects of subthalamic deep brain stimulation on impulse control disorder in patients with Parkinson's disease. Background: Parkinson's disease (PD) is a common…Baseline physical activity may influence exercise-induced changes in cognitive function in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To determine how physical activity (PA) levels influence disease severity and cognitive function changes as a result of exercise in Parkinson's disease (PD). Background:…Identification of unique metabolite signatures in post-mortem DBS human tissue using LC-HRMS
Objective: Metabolomics is applied to the study of metabolic as well as neurodegenerative diseases. We propose to utilize this technique to detect metabolic changes from…Long-term results of pallidal deep brain stimulation in a cohort of eight children with isolated dystonia assessed by blinded video rating
Objective: We present long-term results up to 13 years in a consecutive series of 8 pediatric patients assessed with blinded video rating. Background: : The…Electric stimulation of the nucleus subthalamicus is able to modulate prepulse inhibition. A pilot study in Parkinson´s disease
Objective: To evaluate if prepulse inhibition (PPI) is influenced by electrical stimulation in the Nucleus subthalamicus (STN) of patients with Parkinson´s disease (PD). Background: PPI…
