Patients with psychiatric symptoms, such as depression, anxiety, and visual hallucinations, may be at increased risk for adverse effects following deep brain stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus for Parkinson’s disease, but there have been relatively ...

The subthalamic nucleus, oscillations, and conflict [PDF]
AbstractThe subthalamic nucleus (STN), which is currently the most common target for deep brain stimulation (DBS) for Parkinson's disease (PD), has received increased attention over the past few years for the roles it may play in functions beyond simple motor control.

Huntington's disease (HD) is characterized by neuronal loss in the striatum, ultimately leading to an ‘imbalance’ in the electrical activity of the basal ganglia-thalamocortical circuits.

Analysis of patient-specific stimulation with segmented leads in the subthalamic nucleus.
ObjectiveSegmented deep brain stimulation leads in the subthalamic nucleus have shown to increase therapeutic window using directional stimulation. However, it is not fully understood how these segmented leads with reduced electrode size modify the ...

The Effect of Unilateral Subthalamic Nucleus Deep Brain Stimulation on Contralateral Subthalamic Nucleus Local Field Potentials [PDF]
Unilateral subthalamic nucleus (STN) deep brain stimulation (DBS) for Parkinson's disease (PD) improves ipsilateral symptoms, but how this occurs is not well understood. We investigated whether unilateral STN DBS suppresses contralateral STN beta activity in the local field potential (LFP), since previous research has shown that activity in the beta ...

Computational Modeling of Ultrasonic Subthalamic Nucleus Stimulation [PDF]
To explore the potential of ultrasonic modulation of plateau-potential generating subthalamic nucleus neurons (STN), by modeling their interaction with continuous and pulsed ultrasonic waves.A computational model for ultrasonic stimulation of the STN is created by combining the Otsuka-model with the bilayer sonophore model.

BackgroundParkinson’s disease is associated with increased impulsivity, which can be divided into several domains: motor (consisting of proactive and reactive subdomains), reflection, and cognitive impulsivity.

Dopamine dysregulation syndrome is a complication of the dopaminergic treatment in Parkinson's disease that may be very disabling due to the negative impact that compulsive medication use may have on patients' social, psychological, and physical ...

Nomogram for Predicting Depression Improvement after Deep Brain Stimulation for Parkinson’s Disease
Background: Parkinson’s disease is a common neurodegenerative disease, with depression being a common non-motor symptom. Bilateral subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation is an effective method for the treatment of Parkinson’s disease.
