Journal ArticleDOI
Educational attainment and motor burden in advanced Parkinson's disease – The emerging role of education in motor reserve
TL;DR: An inverse correlation between years of education and lower UPDRS -III motor score is found after adjusting for important covariables, suggesting education may lead to an increased ability to compensate disturbances in basal ganglia circuits affecting not only for cognitive, but also for motor aspects of PD.
Journal ArticleDOI
The impact of white matter lesions on the cognitive outcome of subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation in Parkinson’s disease
Josefine Blume,M. Lange,Eva Rothenfusser,Christian Doenitz,Ulrich Bogdahn,Alexander Brawanski,J. Schlaier +6 more
TL;DR: Damaged white matter may lead to a reduced compensation of disconnections in cognitive circuits caused by the implantation of the DBS electrodes or by chronic stimulation and the role of WML as a prognostic factor for the cognitive outcome after DBS may be underestimated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Intraoperative clinical testing overestimates the therapeutic window of the permanent DBS electrode in the subthalamic nucleus
Josefine Blume,J. Schlaier,E. Rothenfußer,Judith Anthofer,Florian Zeman,Alexander Brawanski,Ulrich Bogdahn,M. Lange +7 more
TL;DR: Therapeutic and side effects of permanent stimulation are not predictable by intraoperative test stimulation, and intraoperative testing may lead to an overestimation of the therapeutic window.
Journal ArticleDOI
Suspected Perinatal Depression Revealed to be Hereditary Diffuse Leukoencephalopathy with Spheroids.
Josefine Blume,Robert Weissert +1 more
TL;DR: A 32-year-old woman who presented with rapid-onset depression, followed by a hypokinetic movement disorder and cognitive decline during pregnancy is presented, which revealed a mutation in the colony-stimulating factor 1 receptor gene led to the diagnosis of hereditary diffuse leukoencephalopathy with spheroids.
