Deep brain stimulation for treatment resistant obsessive compulsive disorder; an observational study with ten patients under real-life conditions

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychiatry, 2023
IntroductionObsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) affects 2–3% of the global population, causing distress in many functioning levels. Standard treatments only lead to a partial recovery, and about 10% of the patients remain treatment-resistant.

Temporal Interference (TI) Stimulation Boosts Functional Connectivity in Human Motor Cortex: A Comparison Study with Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS)

open access: yesNeural Plasticity, 2022
Temporal interference (TI) could stimulate deep motor cortex and induce movement without affecting the overlying cortex in previous mouse studies. However, there is still lack of evidence on potential TI effects in human studies.

Anticipatory Postural Adjustments and Compensatory Postural Responses to Multidirectional Perturbations—Effects of Medication and Subthalamic Nucleus Deep Brain Stimulation in Parkinson’s Disease

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2023
Background: Postural instability is one of the most restricting motor symptoms for patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD). While medication therapy only shows minor effects, it is still unclear whether medication in conjunction with deep brain ...

Does Impaired Plantar Cutaneous Vibration Perception Contribute to Axial Motor Symptoms in Parkinson’s Disease? Effects of Medication and Subthalamic Nucleus Deep Brain Stimulation

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2023
Objective: To investigate whether impaired plantar cutaneous vibration perception contributes to axial motor symptoms in Parkinson’s disease (PD) and whether anti-parkinsonian medication and subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation (STN-DBS) show ...

Neurosurgeons perspective on the shift towards earlier use of deep brain stimulation for Parkinson disease

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Neurosurgery, 2021
Background: The US Food and Drug Administration approved in 2015 the use of deep brain stimulation for Parkinson disease after “four years duration and with recent onset of motor complications”.
