Deep-brain stimulation is currently the most effective surgical treatment for advanced Parkinson’s disease. The relevant targets to date are the subthalamic nucleus and the globus pallidus internus, although the thalamus (ventralis intermedius nucleus) is preferred in tremor-dominant, aged Parkinson’s disease patients. Long-term benefit in cardinal parkinsonian signs, motor fluctuations and dyskinesia has been reported in 5-year follow-up studies of subthalamic nucleus deep-brain stimulation…

Deep Brain Stimulation and Cognitive Decline in Parkinson’s Disease: A Clinical Review

TLDR
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is a useful therapeutic option in carefully selected patients that significantly improves motor symptoms, functional status, and quality of life, however, cognitive impairment may limit patient selection for DBS.

Thalamic Stimulation for Parkinson’s Disease: Clinical Studies on DBS

TLDR
Vim-DBS provides a long-term therapeutic benefit on the quality of life of tremor-dominant PD without affecting cognitive function, but cannot be recommended for non-tremor PD symptoms such as akinesia, gait disturbance, and motor fluctuation.

Deep brain stimulation for Parkinson’s disease: Australian referral guidelines

Deep Brain Stimulation for Parkinson's Disease—A Review

TLDR
Which PD patients can benefit from DBS and how the operations are performed and what are the expected outcomes (and potential complications) are highlighted.

Medical management after subthalamic stimulation in Parkinson's disease: a phenotype perspective.

TLDR
A clinical algorithm on medical management focused on the patient's phenotypic profile at the perioperative period is proposed and across the trials, the levodopa equivalent daily dose is reduced by 30 to 50% one year after surgery.

High-Frequency Stimulation for Parkinson’s Disease and Effects on Pathways in Basal Ganglia Network Model

TLDR
The calculation results show that the cortico-basal-thalamic network is reliable, and through the use of feasible models, high-frequency stimulation of the three targets can improve the pathological thalamic rhythmicity.

Differential effects of deep brain stimulation and levodopa on brain activity in Parkinson’s disease

TLDR
Modulatory effects of levodopa on brain activity of the putamen during finger movement execution were showed, which were not observed with deep brain stimulation, which underlines the specificity of the findings withlevodopa treatment.

Long-term Outcomes (15 Years) After Subthalamic Nucleus Deep Brain Stimulation in Patients With Parkinson Disease

TLDR
STN-DBS is effective beyond 15 years from the intervention, notably with significant improvement in motor complications and stable reduction of dopaminergic drugs, and despite the natural continuous progression of PD with worsening of levodopa-resistant motor and nonmotor symptoms over the years, patients undergoing STN- DBS could maintain an improvement in QoL.

Neuropsychological performance after unilateral subthalamic deep brain stimulation in Parkinson's disease

of a dissertation at the University of Miami. The current study examined cognitive effects of unilateral subthalamic nucleus (STN) deep brain stimulation (DBS) in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients.…

Dementia and subthalamic deep brain stimulation in Parkinson disease

TLDR
Except for few patients with perioperative cerebral hemorrhage, STN-DBS is cognitively safe, and does not provide dementia risk factors in addition to those reported for PD itself, which is not higher than those reported in the general PD population.

Bilateral deep brain stimulation in Parkinson's disease: a multicentre study with 4 years follow-up.

TLDR
This first multicentre study assessing the long-term efficacy of either STN or GPi stimulation shows a significant and substantial clinically important therapeutic benefit for at least 3-4 years in a large cohort of patients with severe Parkinson's disease.

Bilateral deep brain stimulation of the pedunculopontine nucleus for Parkinson's disease

TLDR
It is demonstrated for the first time that low frequency stimulation of this nucleus significantly improves gait dysfunction and postural instability in both the ‘on’ and ‘off’ medication states.

Subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation for parkinson's disease after successful pallidotomy: Clinical and electrophysiological observations

TLDR
Bilateral STN DBS is safe and efficacious in improving motor symptoms in patients with prior pallidotomy and should be considered as a go-to treatment for contralateral parkinsonism and dyskinesia.

TLDR
Despite moderate motor and cognitive decline, probably due to disease progression, the marked improvement in motor function observed postoperatively was sustained 5 years after neurosurgery.

TLDR
This functional imaging study is the first to demonstrate a continuous decline of dopaminergic function in patients with advanced PD under clinically effective bilateral STN stimulation.

TLDR
STNDBS pays off from the second year of stimulation while motor symptoms are significantly improved and the Unified Parkinon’s Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS III) was significantly improved.

Double-blind evaluation of subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation in advanced Parkinson's disease

TLDR
STN DBS is a promising new surgical option for the treatment of advanced Parkinson's Disease and the marked clinical benefits obtained in these severely disabled patients outweighed the adverse effects.

A randomized trial of deep-brain stimulation for Parkinson's disease.

TLDR
In this six-month study of patients under 75 years of age with severe motor complications of Parkinson's disease, neurostimulation of the subthalamic nucleus was more effective than medical management alone.
