Journal ArticleDOI

Body weight gain rate in patients with Parkinson's disease and deep brain stimulation

TL;DR: In PD, STN DBS produces not only symptom control, but also weight gain, and BMI changes at 3 and 12 months were significantly correlated to dyskinesia score changes, and levodopa dosage was not.
Journal ArticleDOI

A 5-year prospective assessment of advanced Parkinson disease patients treated with subcutaneous apomorphine infusion or deep brain stimulation

TL;DR: 5-year follow-up of 25 PD patients treated with either STN-DBS or CSAI found that both therapies decreased daily off-time but only STN/CSAI reduced dyskinesia duration and severity, and Decrement of medications was greater with STN -DBS.
Journal ArticleDOI

Natriuretic peptides, heart, and adipose tissue: new findings and future developments for diabetes research.

TL;DR: Low ANP and BNP levels may be not only a consequence but also a cause of obesity, and recent prospective studies have shown that low levels of NT-proBNP and midregional proANP (MR-proANP) are a strong predictor of type 2 diabetes onset.
Journal ArticleDOI

Clinical correlates and cognitive underpinnings of verbal fluency impairment after chronic subthalamic stimulation in Parkinson's disease.

TL;DR: Impairment of shifting suggests prefrontal dysfunction, possibly due to disruption of fronto-striatal circuits along the surgical trajectory and/or to high frequency stimulation itself.
