TL;DR: At 1 year, surgery and best medical therapy improved patient self-reported quality of life more than best medical Therapy alone in patients with advanced Parkinson's disease, but surgery is not without risk and targeting of patients most likely to benefit might be warranted.

TL;DR: Patients' perceptions of reduced postoperative functional disability and improvements in 'quality of life' also achieved statistical significance on a number of both physical and psychosocial questionnaire subscales.

TL;DR: It is suggested that lateralized cerebellar damage may selectively impair the development of cognitive functions subserved by the contralateral cerebral hemisphere and, in addition, that all children with Cerebellar lesions in early childhood should routinely undergo long-term monitoring of their intellectual development.

TL;DR: It is suggested that recruitment of medial prefrontal cortex is a form of adaptive brain plasticity that compensates, in part, for relative deficits in processing related to the reduced right prefrontal cortex activity with multiple sclerosis.

TL;DR: The phasic pallidal activity correlated with and led the myoclonic muscle activity, and the myoclonus was suppressed by bilateral pallidal DBS, suggesting that the medial pallidum was involved in the generation of theMyoclonic activity.
