Pallidal Deep-Brain Stimulation in Primary Generalized or Segmental Dystonia

TL;DR: Bilateral pallidal neurostimulation for 3 months was more effective than sham stimulation in patients with primary generalized or segmental dystonia and sustained improvement in all movement symptoms, the level of disability, and quality of life, as compared with baseline scores.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reduction in subthalamic 8-35 Hz oscillatory activity correlates with clinical improvement in Parkinson's disease.

TL;DR: A link between levodopa‐induced improvements in bradykinesia and rigidity and reductions in population synchrony at frequencies < 35 Hz in the region of the STN in patients with PD is supported.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pathological synchronisation in the subthalamic nucleus of patients with Parkinson's disease relates to both bradykinesia and rigidity.

TL;DR: Data suggest that levodopa-induced improvements in both rigidity and bradykinesia scale with the degree of suppression of oscillatory power in the STN LFP, and that this is true irrespective of the frequency at which synchronisation occurs across a broad band from 8-35 Hz.
