Incidence Rate and Predictors of Globus Pallidus Necrosis after Charcoal Burning Suicide [PDF]
Objective: This study examined predictors of globus pallidus necrosis as there was a paucity of literature of globus pallidus necrosis resulted from carbon monoxide poisoning after charcoal burning suicide.

Abstract Background The magnitude and factors associated with levodopa equivalent daily dose (LEDD) reduction in deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the globus pallidus interna (GPi) for Parkinson's Disease (PD) remain unclear. Objective To investigate LEDD reduction in GPi DBS and its correlation with anatomical/clinical characteristics.

Local Field Potential‐Based Programming: A Proof‐of‐Concept Pilot Study
Abstract Objectives Programming deep brain stimulation (DBS) is still based on a trial‐and‐error approach, often becoming a time‐consuming process for both treating physicians and patients. Several strategies have been proposed to streamline DBS programming, most of which are preliminary and mainly address Parkinson's disease, a condition readily ...

Changes in the globus pallidus in chronic kernicterus
The objective of the study was to establish the diagnosis of kernicterus as a cause of seizures and abnormal movements in a 1-year-old child. We performed an MRI of the brain of the child on our 1.5 T scanner. The MRI of the patient showed high signals on T2-weighted images in the globus pallidus bilaterally, with no evidence of mass effect. Because of

Abstract Objective During the surgical procedure of deep brain stimulation (DBS), insertion of an electrode in the subthalamic nucleus (STN) frequently causes a temporary improvement of motor symptoms, known as the microlesion effect (MLE). The objective of this study was to determine the correlation between the intraoperative MLE and the clinical ...

A hierarchical coding-window model of Parkinson's disease [PDF]
Parkinson's disease is an ongoing challenge to theoretical neuroscience and to medical treatment. During the evolution of the disease, neurodegeneration leads to physiological and anatomical changes that affect the neuronal discharge of the Basal Ganglia to an extent that impairs normal behavioral patterns.

Empirical comparison of diffusion kurtosis imaging and diffusion basis spectrum imaging using the same acquisition in healthy young adults [PDF]
As diffusion tensor imaging gains widespread use, many researchers have been motivated to go beyond the tensor model and fit more complex diffusion models, to gain a more complete description of white matter microstructure and associated pathology.

Long-term follow-up of DYT1 dystonia patients treated by deep brain stimulation: an open-label study [PDF]
Long-term efficacy of internal globus pallidus (GPi) deep-brain stimulation (DBS) in DYT1 dystonia and disease progression under DBS was studied. Twenty-six patients of this open-label study were divided into two groups: (A) with single bilateral GPi lead, (B) with a second bilateral GPi lead implanted owning to subsequent worsening of symptomatology ...

Cholinergic Stimulation of Globus Pallidus in Man.
SummaryA 10% solution of acetylcholine chloride injected into the globus pallidus of persons with Parkinsonism resulted in initial excitatory stage with increase in tremor and parasympathetic activation. Parasympathetic response was blocked by intracerebral injection of an anticholinergic drug, oxyphenonium bromide.
