Abstract Background Subcutaneous foslevodopa‐foscarbidopa (SCFF) is a novel, non‐surgical dopaminergic infusion therapy for better controlling motor fluctuations in advanced Parkinson's disease (PD). However, there are scarce real‐world data on efficacy, adverse events and comparisons with other infusion strategies. Objectives Here, we aimed to provide

Effects of aging on nitrergic neurons in human striatum and subthalamic nucleus
Nitric oxide (NO) is a major neurotransmitter associated with motor control in basal ganglia. Movement disorders, as essential tremor and Parkinson’s disease, are more prevalent on aged individuals.

Existing motor state is favored at the expense of new movement during 13-35 Hz oscillatory synchrony in the human corticospinal system [PDF]
Oscillations in local field potentials in the β-frequency band (13-35 Hz) are a pervasive feature of human and nonhuman primate motor cortical areas. However, the function of such synchronous activity across populations of neurons remains unknown.

ABSTRACT Background Management of deep brain stimulation (DBS) in late‐stage Parkinson's disease (LSPD) remains challenging, particularly when deciding whether to continue or discontinue stimulation, and evidence on risk–benefit considerations is limited. Objectives To identify key factors to improve decision‐making in DBS management for LSPD patients.

Abstract Introduction Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is an effective treatment for refractory obsessive–compulsive disorder (OCD). Neuropsychological assessment contributes to DBS treatment in several ways: it monitors the cognitive safety of the treatment, identifies beneficial or detrimental cognitive side effects and it could aid to explain ...

Subthalamic Nucleus Deep Brain Stimulation Improves Kinetic Tremor in Parkinson's Disease
Abstract Background Although resting tremor is a characteristic feature of Parkinson's disease (PD), many patients also suffer from action tremor. Deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the subthalamic nucleus (STN) is effective in reducing motor symptoms. However, it is unclear to what extent STN‐DBS improves action tremor in PD, particularly kinetic tremor.

Neural oscillations are critical to understanding the synchronisation of neural activities and their relevance to neurological disorders. For instance, the amplitude of beta oscillations in the subthalamic nucleus has gained extensive attention, as it ...

Longitudinal Videofluorographic Dysphagia Measures in Progressive Supranuclear Palsy
Abstract Background Dysphagia can lead to fatal aspiration pneumonia in progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP). Little is known about the longitudinal progression of dysphagia or whether it differs across PSP clinical variants. Objectives To characterize longitudinal changes in dysphagia across PSP variants and determine relationships with disease ...

Desynchronizing effect of high-frequency stimulation in a generic cortical network model
Transcranial Electrical Stimulation (TCES) and Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) are two different applications of electrical current to the brain used in different areas of medicine. Both have a similar frequency dependence of their efficiency, with the most

Hypotensive Episodes Precede Cognitive Fluctuations in Parkinson's Disease Dementia
Abstract Background Cognitive fluctuations (CFs) are a disabling feature in Parkinson's disease dementia (PDD) and contribute to caregiver burden. The relationship between CFs and neurogenic orthostatic hypotension (nOH), a common autonomic complication in PDD, has not been adequately examined.
