Intestinal Levodopa/Carbidopa Infusion as a Therapeutic Option for Unresponsive Freezing of Gait after Deep Brain Stimulation in Parkinson’s Disease

Parkinson's Disease, 2020
Background. Treatment of freezing of gait (FOG) is always challenging because of its unpredictable nature and multifactorial physiopathology. Intestinal levodopa infusion has been proposed in recent years as a valuable option for its improvement.

A guide to neuromodulation in drug‐resistant epilepsy

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Neuromodulation is approved for the treatment of drug‐resistant epilepsy. It has been increasingly utilized over the past two decades with the approval of deep brain stimulation (DBS) and responsive neurostimulation (RNS) in addition to vagus nerve stimulation (VNS)—particularly in patients who are not deemed to be good resective surgical ...

Deep Brain Stimulation Reduces Conflict‐Related Theta and Error‐Related Negativity in Patients With Obsessive–Compulsive Disorder

Neuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021
Abstract Objectives Obsessive–compulsive disorder (OCD) is a psychiatric disorder with alterations of cortico‐striato‐thalamo‐cortical loops and impaired performance monitoring. Electrophysiological markers such as conflict‐related medial frontal theta (MFT) and error‐related negativity (ERN) may be altered by clinically effective deep brain ...

Indirect Targeting of Subthalamic Deep Brain Stimulation Guided by Stereotactic Computed Tomography and Microelectrode Recordings in Patients With Parkinson’s Disease

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2018
Objective: Magnetic resonance imaging fusion techniques guided by frame-based stereotactic computed tomography and microelectrode recordings are widely used to target the subthalamic nucleus. However, MRI is not always available.

Absence seizures: Update on signaling mechanisms and networks

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Absence seizures (AS) are a hallmark of genetic generalized epilepsies (GGE), characterized by brief episodes of impaired consciousness accompanied by electroencephalographic spike‐and‐wave discharges (SWDs). Traditionally attributed to cortico‐thalamo‐cortical (CTC) dysrhythmia, emerging evidence suggests a more intricate pathophysiological ...

Deep Brain Stimulation of Caudal Zona Incerta for Parkinson's Disease: One‐Year Follow‐Up and Electric Field Simulations

Neuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021
Abstract Objective To evaluate the effects of bilateral caudal zona incerta (cZi) deep brain stimulation (DBS) for Parkinson's disease (PD) one year after surgery and to create anatomical improvement maps based on patient‐specific simulation of the electric field.

Morphological changes of glutamatergic synapses in animal models of Parkinson’s disease

Frontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2015
The striatum and the subthalamic nucleus are the main entry doors for extrinsic inputs to reach the basal ganglia circuitry. The cerebral cortex, thalamus and brainstem are the key sources of glutamatergic inputs to these nuclei.

Epilepsy surgery: From bench to the clinics

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Recent advances in epilepsy surgery in patients with intractable epilepsy make it possible to study the mechanism of epilepsy in human brains. However, the true extent and propagation of each epileptogenic area from the epileptogenic focus in each patient is still difficult to perform “epilepsy cure” by surgery.

Local Field Potential‐Based Programming: A Proof‐of‐Concept Pilot Study

Neuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021
Abstract Objectives Programming deep brain stimulation (DBS) is still based on a trial‐and‐error approach, often becoming a time‐consuming process for both treating physicians and patients. Several strategies have been proposed to streamline DBS programming, most of which are preliminary and mainly address Parkinson's disease, a condition readily ...

Characterizing the spiking dynamics of subthalamic nucleus neurons in Parkinson's disease using generalized linear models

Frontiers in Integrative Neuroscience, 2012
Accurately describing the spiking patterns of neurons in the subthalamic nucleus of patients suffering from Parkinson’s disease is important for understanding the pathogenesis of the disease and for achieving the maximum therapeutic benefit from deep ...
