Decoding Finely Tuned Gamma Oscillations in Chronic Deep Brain Stimulation for Parkinson's Disease
Abstract Background Finely tuned Gamma (FTG) activity—spontaneous narrowband Gamma oscillations (sFTG) or entrained to half the stimulation frequency (eFTG)—is typically linked to on‐medication states and dyskinesia in Parkinson's disease (PD), making it a potential physiomarker for adaptive deep brain stimulation (aDBS).

Abstract Background This study aimed to develop and assess a bedside nasojejunal tube placement technique designed for resource‐limited settings to address the specific challenges of enteral nutrition (EN) delivery in neurocritical care patients, particularly those at high risk of reflux and aspiration. The technique sought to overcome the drawbacks of
