Deep Brain Stimulation in Schizophrenia [PDF]
Activitas Nervosa Superior, 2014 Abstract Deep brain stimulation (DBS) has successfully advanced treatment options of putative therapy-resistant neuropsychiatric diseases. Building on this strong foundation more and more mental disorders in the stadium of therapy-resistance are considered as possible indications for DBS.

Paradoxical augmented relapse in alcohol-dependent rats during deep-brain stimulation in the nucleus accumbens [PDF]
, 2016 Case reports indicate that deep-brain stimulation in the nucleus accumbens may be beneficial to alcohol-dependent patients. The lack of clinical trials and our limited knowledge of deep-brain stimulation call for translational experiments to validate ...

Deep brain stimulation for dystonia [PDF]
Journal of Neurology, Neurosurgery & Psychiatry, 2012 The few controlled studies that have been carried out have shown that bilateral internal globus pallidum stimulation is a safe and long-term effective treatment for hyperkinetic disorders. However, most recent published data on deep brain stimulation (DBS) for dystonia, applied to different targets and patients, are still mainly from uncontrolled case ...

Deep brain stimulation for dystonia [PDF]
Translational Neurodegeneration, 2014 Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is an effective surgical treatment for medication-refractory movement disorders, and has been approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration for treatment of dystonia. The success of DBS in the treatment of dystonia depends on our understanding of the anatomy and physiology of this disorder and close ...

Deep Brain Stimulation for Epilepsy [PDF]
Neurotherapeutics, 2008 Many patients who suffer from medically refractory epilepsy are not candidates for resective brain surgery. Success of deep brain stimulation (DBS) in relieving a significant number of symptoms of various movement disorders paved the way for investigations into this modality for epilepsy.
