TL;DR: DBS fully remitted 50% of the patients at 1 yr, supporting its validity as a new therapeutic strategy for TRD, and all HAMD subscales without a significant incidence of side-effects.

TL;DR: Preliminary findings indicate that DBS of the SCG is an effective and safe treatment for severe forms of TRD and that continuous electrical stimulation is required to maintain therapeutic effects.

TL;DR: These preliminary findings point to the possibility of DBS having therapeutic effects in patients with schizophrenia who do not respond to any other treatment, and to the extent of the benefits and whether these can be achieved without psychiatric side-effects.

TL;DR: Radiofrequency of the SPG is a safe, fast, and partially effective method for the treatment of CCHr and should be one of the first invasive treatment options, prior to techniques with greater morbidity and mortality, such as neuromodulation.

TL;DR: ONS is initially effective as a treatment for refractory CH, although a trend toward loss of efficacy was observed, and DBS appears to be effective and provide a more stable clinical response over time with an acceptable rate of surgical complications.
