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

open access: yesNature 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.

Thalamic Deep Brain Stimulation for Dystonic Head Tremor: A Long‐Term Study of 18 Patients

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Dystonic head tremor is a particular manifestation of dystonia, which is difficult to treat. Although deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the globus pallidus internus has been established as a treatment for different phenotypes of dystonia, its role in dystonic tremor has been debated.

Subcortical correlates of consciousness with human single neuron recordings

open access: yeseLife
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 ...

One Side or Two? A Systematic Review of Deep Brain Stimulation Approaches in Movement Disorders

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is an established treatment for movement disorders such as Parkinson's disease (PD) and essential tremor (ET). However, the decision between unilateral, staged bilateral, or simultaneous bilateral DBS remains controversial, influenced by clinical presentation, patient preferences, and economic factors ...

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

open access: yesNeuromodulation: 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 ...

Effects of aging on nitrergic neurons in human striatum and subthalamic nucleus

open access: yesArquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria, 2015
Nitric oxide (NO) is a major neurotransmitter associated with motor control in basal ganglia. Movement disorders, as essential tremor and Parkinson’s disease, are more prevalent on aged individuals.

The Management of Parkinson's Disease Before, during and after Pregnancy—an MDS Scientific Issues Committee Review

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Pregnancy after a Parkinson's diagnosis presents complex challenges. Due to the paucity of literature, there is no evidence‐based guidelines and protocols for preconception care, management of pregnancy, childbirth and the postpartum period in women with early‐onset Parkinson's disease (PD).
