Informed consent decision-making in deep brain stimulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) has proved useful for several movement disorders (Parkinson’s disease, essential tremor, dystonia), in which first and/or second line pharmacological treatments were inefficacious.

The subcortical cocktail problem; mixed signals from the subthalamic nucleus and substantia nigra.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
The subthalamic nucleus and the directly adjacent substantia nigra are small and important structures in the basal ganglia. Functional magnetic resonance imaging studies have shown that the subthalamic nucleus and substantia nigra are selectively ...

Depression history modulates effects of subthalamic nucleus topography on neuropsychological outcomes of deep brain stimulation for Parkinson’s disease

open access: yesTranslational Psychiatry, 2022
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 ...

Neuronal Activity in the Human Subthalamic Nucleus Encodes Decision Conflict during Action Selection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The subthalamic nucleus (STN), which receives excitatory inputs from the cortex and has direct connections with the inhibitory pathways\ud of the basal ganglia, is well positioned to efficiently mediate action selection.

Basal ganglia role in learning rewarded actions and executing previously learned choices: Healthy and diseased states [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The basal ganglia (BG) is a collection of nuclei located deep beneath the cerebral cortex that is involved in learning and selection of rewarded actions. Here, we analyzed BG mechanisms that enable these functions.

Physical therapy and deep brain stimulation in Parkinson’s Disease: Protocol for a pilot randomized controlled trial [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Background Subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation (STN-DBS) reduces tremor, muscle stiffness, and bradykinesia in people with Parkinson’s Disease (PD).

Analysis of patient-specific stimulation with segmented leads in the subthalamic nucleus.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
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 ...

Metabolic and electrophysiological changes in the basal ganglia of transgenic Huntington's disease rats

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2012
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.

Functional atlases for analysis of motor and neuropsychological outcomes after medial globus pallidus and subthalamic stimulation.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Anatomical atlases have been developed to improve the targeting of basal ganglia in deep brain stimulation. However, the sole anatomy cannot predict the functional outcome of this surgery.

Striatal cholinergic interneurons generate beta and gamma oscillations in the corticostriatal circuit and produce motor deficits [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Cortico-basal ganglia-thalamic (CBT) neural circuits are critical modulators of cognitive and motor function. When compromised, these circuits contribute to neurological and psychiatric disorders, such as Parkinson's disease (PD).
