Subthalamic Nucleus Stimulation Impairs Motivation: Implication for Apathy in Parkinson's Disease

open access: yesMovement Disorders, 2020
Apathy is one of the most disabling neuropsychiatric symptoms in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients and has a higher prevalence in patients under subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation.

Subthalamic Nucleus Stimulation [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Neurology, 2006
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is currently the most effective surgical treatment for advanced Parkinson disease (PD). Even when the electrode is well positioned in the target, the optimization of clinical results depends on careful programming of electrical parameters and changes in antiparkinsonian drug dosages.To determine whether stable outcomes from

Optogenetics and deep brain stimulation neurotechnologies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Brain neural network is composed of densely packed, intricately wired neurons whose activity patterns ultimately give rise to every behavior, thought, or emotion that we experience. Over the past decade, a novel neurotechnique, optogenetics that combines

Targeting the Subthalamic Nucleus

open access: yesStereotactic and Functional Neurosurgery, 2001
The small size and surrounding neuronal structures and fibre tracts make the STN a difficult stereotactic target. In this article we present the technique used by us to target the STN. Our combined experience from two centres comprises 18 lesions and 27 stimulator implants in the STN.

Subthalamic nucleus detects unnatural android movement [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
AbstractAn android, i.e., a realistic humanoid robot with human-like capabilities, may induce an uncanny feeling in human observers. The uncanny feeling about an android has two main causes: its appearance and movement. The uncanny feeling about an android increases when its appearance is almost human-like but its movement is not fully natural or ...

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.

Subthalamic nucleus stimulation and levodopa modulate cardiovascular autonomic function in Parkinson’s disease

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
We aimed to explore the effects of bilateral subthalamic nucleus stimulation and levodopa on cardiovascular autonomic function in Parkinson’s disease.

Dynamic modulation of subthalamic nucleus activity facilitates adaptive behavior.

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2023
Adapting actions to changing goals and environments is central to intelligent behavior. There is evidence that the basal ganglia play a crucial role in reinforcing or adapting actions depending on their outcome.

Development of a novel gripping test for the evaluation of the finger fine motor ability in MPTP-treated monkeys [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Neuroscience, 2020
Assessing the finger fine motor ability is extremely important. However, conventional behavioral tests in monkeys are complicated and costly. We attempted to develop a new task to assess the precise finger grip in Parkinson's disease monkeys based on the
