Phase matters: A role for the subthalamic network during gait. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2018
The role of the subthalamic nucleus in human locomotion is unclear although relevant, given the troublesome management of gait disturbances with subthalamic deep brain stimulation in patients with Parkinson's disease.

Motor and Cognitive Outcome After Subthalamic Nucleus Deep Brain Stimulation in Patients with Parkinson's Disease Harboring GBA1 Variant

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is effective for Parkinson's disease (PD); however, its efficacy varies with genetic background, such as the GBA1 variant—the causative gene of Gaucher disease—associated with increased PD risk and cognitive decline after subthalamic nucleus (STN)‐DBS.

The Intraoperative Microlesion Effect Positively Correlates With the Short‐Term Clinical Effect of Deep Brain Stimulation in Parkinson's Disease

Neuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021
Abstract Objective During the surgical procedure of deep brain stimulation (DBS), insertion of an electrode in the subthalamic nucleus (STN) frequently causes a temporary improvement of motor symptoms, known as the microlesion effect (MLE). The objective of this study was to determine the correlation between the intraoperative MLE and the clinical ...

Weight gain is associated with medial contact site of subthalamic stimulation in Parkinson's disease. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
The aim of our study was to assess changes in body-weight in relation to active electrode contact position in the subthalamic nucleus. Regular body weight measurements were done in 20 patients with advanced Parkinson's disease within a period of 18 ...

Brain Imaging Changes Following Deep Brain Stimulation Patients with Parkinson's Disease: A Literature Review

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Parkinson's Disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder primarily characterized by motor symptoms such as tremors, rigidity, and bradykinesia. Structural brain changes, including atrophy in the midbrain, basal ganglia, and cortical regions such as the frontal and temporal lobes, are observed in advanced stages.

Cognitive Outcome After Deep Brain Stimulation for Refractory Obsessive–Compulsive Disorder: A Systematic Review

Neuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021
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 ...

Subcortical correlates of consciousness with human single neuron recordings

eLife
Subcortical brain structures such as the subthalamic nucleus or the thalamus are involved in regulating motor and cognitive behavior. However, their contribution to perceptual consciousness remains unclear, due to the inherent difficulties of recording ...

Acute hemiballismus in the absence of subthalamic nucleus lesion

MGM Journal of Medical Sciences, 2020
A 68-year-old male, known hypertensive on irregular medication presented with sudden onset of involuntary movements of the left upper limb, in the form of severely violent, arrhythmic, and flinging large amplitude movements for 2 days, suggestive of ...

Subthalamic nucleus stabilizes movements by reducing neural spike variability in monkey basal ganglia

Nature Communications, 2022
Chemogenetic inactivation of the subthalamic nucleus in monkeys increases spike train variability in the pallidum and prolongs movement time, suggesting its role in stabilizing pallidal spike trains to achieve stable motor control.

Patient‐Reported Communication Decline Following Deep Brain Stimulation in Parkinson's Disease

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Objective decline in communication abilities following Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) in People with Parkinson's disease (PwP) is common; however, patient perspectives remain under‐investigated. Objectives This study examined subjective change in communicative efficacy using the Communicative Participation Item Bank (CPIB) in PwP ...
