Jiao J, Brumbach BH, Hantke N, Wilhelmi M, Bonilla C, Safarpour D. Changes in Anticholinergic Burden in Parkinson's Disease After Deep Brain Stimulation. Neuromodulation 2024; 27:538-543. [PMID: 38085189 DOI: 10.1016/j.neurom.2023.11.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/01/2023] [Revised: 09/30/2023] [Accepted: 11/02/2023] [Indexed: 04/05/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to evaluate the effect of deep brain stimulation (DBS) on anticholinergic burden in Parkinson's disease (PD) and the association of anticholinergic burden with cognition. MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective chart review in patients with PD who underwent bilateral subthalamic nucleus (STN) or globus pallidus internus (GPi) DBS from 2010 to 2020 reviewed medications with anticholinergic burden at baseline, six months, and one year (N = 216) after surgery. The cumulative anticholinergic burden at each visit was calculated using the Anticholinergic Risk Scale (ARS). RESULTS ARS scores were significantly lower for patients six months and one year after surgery than at baseline (z = 6.58, p < 0.0001; z = 6.99, p < 0.0001). Change in ARS scores at both six months and one year were driven by down-titration of PD medications (z = 9.35, p < 0.0001; z = 8.61, p < 0.0001), rather than changes in pain, psychiatric, or urinary medications with anticholinergic effects. There was no significant difference in change in ARS scores at one year between targets (t = 0.41, p = 0.68). In addition, there was no significant association between anticholinergic burden and cognitive performance. CONCLUSION GPi and STN DBS are associated with decreased anticholinergic burden due to PD medications in the first year after surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is an established therapeutic option in advanced Parkinson's disease (PD). Literature data and recent guidelines remain inconclusive about the best choice as a target between the subthalamic nucleus (STN) and the globus pallidus internus (GPi). MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the clinical efficacy outcomes of 48 DBS-implanted patients (33 STN-DBS and 15 GPi-DBS) at a short- (<1 year from the surgery) and long-term (2-5 years) follow-up. Also, clinical safety outcomes, including postoperative surgical complications and severe side effects, were collected. RESULTS We found no difference between STN-DBS and GPi-DBS in improving motor symptoms at short-term evaluation. However, STN-DBS achieved a more prominent reduction in oral therapy (L-DOPA equivalent daily dose, P = .02). By contrast, GPi-DBS was superior in ameliorating motor fluctuations and dyskinesia (MDS-UPDRS IV, P < .001) as well as motor experiences of daily living (MDS-UPDRS II, P = .03). The greater efficacy of GPi-DBS on motor fluctuations and experiences of daily living was also present at the long-term follow-up. We observed five serious adverse events, including two suicides, all among STN-DBS patients. CONCLUSION Both STN-DBS and GPi-DBS are effective in improving motor symptoms severity and complications, but GPi-DBS has a greater impact on motor fluctuations and motor experiences of daily living. These results suggest that the two targets should be considered equivalent in motor efficacy, with GPi-DBS as a valuable option in patients with prominent motor complications. The occurrence of suicides in STN-treated patients claims further attention in target selection.

Abstract
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder, prevalent in the elderly population. Neuropathological hallmarks of PD include loss of dopaminergic cells in the nigro-striatal pathway and deposition of alpha-synuclein protein in the neurons and synaptic terminals, which lead to a complex presentation of motor and non-motor symptoms. This review focuses on various aspects of PD, from clinical diagnosis to currently accepted treatment options, such as pharmacological management through dopamine replacement and surgical techniques such as deep brain stimulation (DBS). The review discusses in detail the potential of emerging stem cell-based therapies and gene therapies to be adopted as a cure, in contrast to the present symptomatic treatment in PD. The potential sources of stem cells for autologous and allogeneic stem cell therapy have been discussed, along with the progress evaluation of pre-clinical and clinical trials. Even though recent techniques hold great potential to improve the lives of PD patients, we present the importance of addressing the safety, efficacy, ethical, cost, and regulatory concerns before scaling them to clinical use.

Abstract
Levodopa-induced dyskinesias (LIDs) are a common complication in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). A complex cascade of electrophysiological and molecular events that induce aberrant plasticity in the cortico-basal ganglia system plays a key role in the pathophysiology of LIDs. In the striatum, multiple neurotransmitters regulate the different forms of physiological synaptic plasticity to provide it in a bidirectional and Hebbian manner. In PD, impairment of both long-term potentiation (LTP) and long-term depression (LTD) progresses with disease and dopaminergic denervation of striatum. The altered balance between LTP and LTD processes leads to unidirectional changes in plasticity that cause network dysregulation and the development of involuntary movements. These alterations have been documented, in both experimental models and PD patients, not only in deep brain structures but also at motor cortex. Invasive and non-invasive neuromodulation treatments, as deep brain stimulation, transcranial magnetic stimulation, or transcranial direct current stimulation, may provide strategies to modulate the aberrant plasticity in the cortico-basal ganglia network of patients affected by LIDs, thus restoring normal neurophysiological functioning and treating dyskinesias. In this review, we discuss the evidence for neuroplasticity impairment in experimental PD models and in patients affected by LIDs, and potential neuromodulation strategies that may modulate aberrant plasticity.

Abstract
Parkinson's disease (PD) is associated with excessive beta activity in the basal ganglia. Brain sensing implants aim to leverage this biomarker for demand-dependent adaptive stimulation. Sleep disturbance is among the most common non-motor symptoms in PD, but its relationship with beta activity is unknown. To investigate the clinical potential of beta activity as a biomarker for sleep quality in PD, we recorded pallidal local field potentials during polysomnography in PD patients off dopaminergic medication and compared the results to dystonia patients. PD patients exhibited sustained and elevated beta activity across wakefulness, rapid eye movement (REM), and non-REM sleep, which was correlated with sleep disturbance. Simulation of adaptive stimulation revealed that sleep-related beta activity changes remain unaccounted for by current algorithms, with potential negative outcomes in sleep quality and overall quality of life for patients.

Sleep outcomes and related factors in Parkinson's disease after subthalamic deep brain electrode implantation: a retrospective cohort study. Ther Adv Neurol Disord 2023; 16:17562864231161163. [PMID: 37200769 PMCID: PMC10185976 DOI: 10.1177/17562864231161163] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/18/2022] [Accepted: 02/15/2023] [Indexed: 05/20/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation (STN-DBS) improves sleep qualities in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients; however, it remains elusive whether STN-DBS improves sleep by directly influencing the sleep circuit or alleviates other cardinal symptoms such as motor functions, other confounding factors including stimulation intensity may also involve. Studying the effect of microlesion effect (MLE) on sleep after STN-DBS electrode implantation may address this issue. Objective To examine the influence of MLE on sleep quality and related factors in PD, as well as the effects of regional and lateral specific correlations with sleep outcomes after STN-DBS electrode implantation. Study Design Case-control study; Level of evidence, 3. Data Sources and Methods In 78 PD patients who underwent bilateral STN-DBS surgery in our center, we compared the sleep qualities, motor performances, anti-Parkinsonian drug dosage, and emotional conditions at preoperative baseline and postoperative 1-month follow-up. We determined the related factors of sleep outcomes and visualized the electrodes position, simulated the MLE-engendered volume of tissue lesioned (VTL), and investigated sleep-related sweet/sour spots and laterality in STN. Results MLE improves sleep quality with Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) by 13.36% and Parkinson's Disease Sleep Scale-2 (PDSS-2) by 17.95%. Motor (P = 0.014) and emotional (P = 0.001) improvements were both positively correlated with sleep improvements. However, MLE in STN associative subregions, as an independent factor, may cause sleep deterioration (r = 0.348, P = 0.002), and only the left STN showed significance (r = 0.327, P = 0.004). Sweet spot analysis also indicated part of the left STN associative subregion is the sour spot indicative of sleep deterioration. Conclusion The MLE of STN-DBS can overall improve sleep quality in PD patients, with a positive correlation between motor and emotional improvements. However, independent of all other factors, the MLE in the STN associative subregion, particularly the left side, may cause sleep deterioration.

The altered spontaneous neural activity in patients with Parkinson's disease and its predictive value for the motor improvement of deep brain stimulation. Neuroimage Clin 2023; 38:103430. [PMID: 37182459 PMCID: PMC10197096 DOI: 10.1016/j.nicl.2023.103430] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/03/2022] [Revised: 05/04/2023] [Accepted: 05/05/2023] [Indexed: 05/16/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aims to investigate the altered spontaneous neural activity in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) revealed by amplitudes of low-frequency fluctuations (ALFF) of resting-state fMRI, and the feasibility of using ALFF as neuroimaging predictors for motor improvement after bilateral subthalamic nucleus (STN) deep brain stimulation (DBS). METHODS Fourty-four patients and 44 healthy controls were included in this study. First, the ALFF of patients with PD was compared with that of controls; then significant clusters were correlated with motor improvement after DBS (unified Parkinson's disease rating scale (UPDRS-III)) and other clinical variables. Second, regression and classification of the machine learning models were conducted to predict motor improvement after DBS. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis was used to evaluate the performance of the classification model. RESULTS Compared with healthy controls, patients with PD showed increased ALFF in the bilateral motor area and decreased ALFF in the bilateral temporal cortex and cerebellum. The Hoehn-Yahr stages correlated with ALFF within the bilateral cerebellum (p = 0.021), and UPDRS-III improvement correlated with ALFF in the left (p < 0.001) and right (p = 0.005) motor areas. The regression model showed a significant correlation between the predicted and observed UPDRS-III changes (R = 0.65, p < 0.001). The ROC analysis revealed an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.94 which differentiated moderate and superior DBS responders. CONCLUSION The results revealed altered ALFF patterns in patients with PD and their correlations with clinical variables. Both binary and continuous ALFF can potentially serve as predictive biomarkers for DBS response.

Pallidal activities during sleep and sleep decoding in dystonia, Huntington's, and Parkinson's disease. Neurobiol Dis 2023; 182:106143. [PMID: 37146835 DOI: 10.1016/j.nbd.2023.106143] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/07/2023] [Revised: 04/09/2023] [Accepted: 05/01/2023] [Indexed: 05/07/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Sleep disturbances are highly prevalent in movement disorders, potentially due to the malfunctioning of basal ganglia structures. Pallidal deep brain stimulation (DBS) has been widely used for multiple movement disorders and been reported to improve sleep. We aimed to investigate the oscillatory pattern of pallidum during sleep and explore whether pallidal activities can be utilized to differentiate sleep stages, which could pave the way for sleep-aware adaptive DBS. METHODS We directly recorded over 500 h of pallidal local field potentials during sleep from 39 subjects with movement disorders (20 dystonia, 8 Huntington's disease, and 11 Parkinson's disease). Pallidal spectrum and cortical-pallidal coherence were computed and compared across sleep stages. Machine learning approaches were utilized to build sleep decoders for different diseases to classify sleep stages through pallidal oscillatory features. Decoding accuracy was further associated with the spatial localization of the pallidum. RESULTS Pallidal power spectra and cortical-pallidal coherence were significantly modulated by sleep-stage transitions in three movement disorders. Differences in sleep-related activities between diseases were identified in non-rapid eye movement (NREM) and REM sleep. Machine learning models using pallidal oscillatory features can decode sleep-wake states with over 90% accuracy. Decoding accuracies were higher in recording sites within the internus-pallidum than the external-pallidum, and can be precited using structural (P < 0.0001) and functional (P < 0.0001) whole-brain neuroimaging connectomics. CONCLUSION Our findings revealed strong sleep-stage dependent distinctions in pallidal oscillations in multiple movement disorders. Pallidal oscillatory features were sufficient for sleep stage decoding. These data may facilitate the development of adaptive DBS systems targeting sleep problems that have broad translational prospects.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The globus pallidus internus (GPI) has been demonstrated to be an effective surgical target for deep brain stimulation (DBS) treatment in patients with medication-refractory Parkinson's disease (PD). The ability of neurosurgeons to define the area of greatest therapeutic benefit within the globus pallidus (GP) may improve clinical outcomes in these patients. The objective of this study was to determine the best DBS therapeutic implantation site within the GP for effective treatment in PD patients. METHODS The authors performed a retrospective review of 56 patients who underwent bilateral GP DBS implantation at their institution during the period from January 2015 to January 2020. Each implanted contact was anatomically localized. Patients were followed for stimulation programming for at least 6 months. The authors reviewed preoperative and 6-month postsurgery clinical outcomes based on data from the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale Part III (UPDRS III), dyskinesia scores, and levodopa equivalent daily dose (LEDD). RESULTS Of the 112 leads implanted, the therapeutic cathode was most frequently located in the lamina between the GPI external segment (GPIe) and the GP externus (GPE) (n = 40). Other common locations included the GPE (n = 24), the GPIe (n = 15), and the lamina between the GPI internal segment (GPIi) and the GPIe (n = 14). In the majority of patients (73%) a monopolar programming configuration was used. At 6 months postsurgery, UPDRS III off medications (OFF) and on stimulation (ON) scores significantly improved (z = -4.02, p < 0.001), as did postsurgery dyskinesia ON scores (z = -4.08, p < 0.001) and postsurgery LEDD (z = -4.7, p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Though the ventral GP (pallidotomy target) has been a commonly used target for GP DBS, a more dorsolateral target may be more effective for neuromodulation strategies. The assessment of therapeutic contact locations performed in this study showed that the lamina between GPI and GPE used in most patients is the optimal central stimulation target. This information should improve preoperative GP targeting.

Abstract
Objectives Low-beta oscillation (13-20 Hz) has rarely been studied in patients with early-onset Parkinson's disease (EOPD, age of onset ≤50 years). We aimed to explore the characteristics of low-beta oscillation in the subthalamic nucleus (STN) of patients with EOPD and investigate the differences between EOPD and late-onset Parkinson's disease (LOPD). Methods We enrolled 31 EOPD and 31 LOPD patients, who were matched using propensity score matching. Patients underwent bilateral STN deep brain stimulation (DBS). Local field potentials were recorded using intraoperative microelectrode recording. We analyzed the low-beta band parameters, including aperiodic/periodic components, beta burst, and phase-amplitude coupling. We compared low-beta band activity between EOPD and LOPD. Correlation analyses were performed between the low-beta parameters and clinical assessment results for each group. Results We found that the EOPD group had lower aperiodic parameters, including offset (p = 0.010) and exponent (p = 0.047). Low-beta burst analysis showed that EOPD patients had significantly higher average burst amplitude (p = 0.016) and longer average burst duration (p = 0.011). Furthermore, EOPD had higher proportion of long burst (500-650 ms, p = 0.008), while LOPD had higher proportion of short burst (200-350 ms, p = 0.007). There was a significant difference in phase-amplitude coupling values between low-beta phase and fast high frequency oscillation (300-460 Hz) amplitude (p = 0.019). Conclusion We found that low-beta activity in the STN of patients with EOPD had characteristics that varied when compared with LOPD, and provided electrophysiological evidence for different pathological mechanisms between the two types of PD. These differences need to be considered when applying adaptive DBS on patients of different ages.

Abstract
Objective: In this study, we aimed to investigate the effects of STN-DBS on PD patients with different levels of depression and to identify predictors of the effects of STN-DBS on PD depression. Methods: We retrospectively collected data for 118 patients with PD depression who underwent STN-DBS at Beijing Tiantan Hospital. Neuropsychological, motor, and quality of life assessments were applied preoperatively and postoperatively. All patients were divided into two groups according to their HAM-D24 total scores (group I: mild depression; group Ⅱ: moderate depression). A mixed repeated-measure analysis of variance (ANOVA) was performed to investigate whether there were differences in depression scores before and after STN-DBS between the two groups. The changes in depression scores were also compared between groups using ANCOVA, adjusting for gender and preoperative HAMA scores. Logistic regression was performed to identify predictors of STN-DBS’s effects on PD depression. Results: Both groups showed significant improvement in depression symptoms after STN-DBS. Compared with patients in group I, patients in group Ⅱ showed greater reductions in their HAM-D24 total scores (p = 0.002) and in HAM-D24 subitems including cognitive disturbances (p = 0.026) and hopelessness symptoms (p = 0.018). Logistic regression indicated that gender (female) (p = 0.014) and preoperative moderate depression (p < 0.001) patients had greater improvements in depression after STN-DBS. Conclusions: Patients with moderate depression showed better improvement than patients with mild depression. Gender (female) and preoperative HAMA scores are predictors of STN-DBS’s effects on PD depression.

Abstract
Parkinson's disease (PD) is in some cases predisposed-or-caused by genetic variants, contributing to the expression of different phenotypes. Regardless of etiology, as the disease progresses, motor fluctuations and/or levodopa-induced dyskinesias limit the benefit of pharmacotherapy. Device-aided therapies are good alternatives in advanced disease, including deep brain stimulation (DBS), levodopa-carbidopa intestinal gel, and continuous subcutaneous infusion of apomorphine. Candidate selection and timing are critical for the success of such therapies. Genetic screening in DBS cohorts has shown a higher proportion of mutation carriers than in general cohorts, suggesting that genetic factors may influence candidacy for advanced therapies. The response of monogenic PD to device therapies is not well established, and the contribution of genetic information to decision-making is still a matter of debate. The limited evidence regarding gene-dependent response to device-aided therapies is reviewed here. An accurate understanding of the adequacy and responses of different mutation carriers to device-aided therapies requires the development of specific studies with long-term monitoring.

Abstract
Background The cognitive outcomes induced by subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation (STN-DBS) remain unclear, especially in PD patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). This study explored the cognitive effects of STN-DBS in PD patients with MCI. Methods This was a retrospective cohort study that included 126 PD patients who underwent STN-DBS; all patients completed cognitive and motor assessments before and at least 6 months after surgery. Cognitive changes were mainly evaluated by the Montreal cognitive assessment (MoCA) scale and the seven specific MoCA domains, including visuospatial/executive function, naming, attention, language, abstract, delayed recall, and orientation. Motor improvement was evaluated by the UPDRS-III. Cognitive changes and motor improvements were compared between PD-MCI and normal cognitive (NC) patients. Logistic regression analyses were performed to explore predictors of post-operative cognitive change. Results At the time of surgery, 61.90% of the included PD patients had MCI. Compared with the PD-MCI group, the PD-NC group had a significantly higher proportion of cases with post-operative cognitive decline during follow-up of up to 36 months (mean 17.34 ± 10.61 months), mainly including in global cognitive function, visuospatial/executive function and attention. Covariate-adjusted binary logistic regression analyses showed that pre-operative global cognitive status was an independent variable for post-operative cognitive decline. We also found that pre-operative cognitive specific function could predict its own decline after STN-DBS, except for the naming and orientation domains. Conclusion PD-MCI patients are at a lower risk of cognitive decline after STN-DBS compared with PD-NC patients.

Retrospective Multicenter Study on Outcome Measurement for Dyskinesia Improvement in Parkinson's Disease Patients with Pallidal and Subthalamic Nucleus Deep Brain Stimulation. Brain Sci 2022; 12:brainsci12081054.

Abstract
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is an effective treatment for dyskinesia in patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD), among which the therapeutic targets commonly used include the subthalamic nucleus (STN) and the globus pallidus internus (GPi). Levodopa-induced dyskinesia (LID) is one of the common motor complications arising in PD patients on chronic treatment with levodopa. In this article, we retrospectively evaluated the outcomes of LID with the Unified Dyskinesia Rating Scale (UDysRS) in patients who underwent DBS in multiple centers with a GPi or an STN target. Meanwhile, the Med off MDS-Unified Parkinson’s Disease Rating Scale (MDS-UPDRS-Ⅲ) and the levodopa equivalent daily dose (LEDD) were also observed as secondary indicators. PD patients with a GPi target showed a more significant improvement in the UDysRS compared with an STN target (92.9 ± 16.7% vs. 66.0 ± 33.6%, p < 0.0001). Both the GPi and the STN showed similar improvement in Med off UPDRS-III scores (49.8 ± 22.6% vs. 52.3 ± 29.5%, p = 0.5458). However, the LEDD was obviously reduced with the STN target compared with the GPi target (44.6 ± 28.1% vs. 12.2 ± 45.8%, p = 0.006).

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to evaluate clinical features and response to deep brain stimulation (DBS) in G2019S LRRK2-Parkinson disease (LRRK2-PD) and idiopathic PD (IPD). METHODS The authors conducted a clinic-based cohort study of PD patients recruited from the Mount Sinai Beth Israel Genetics database of PD studies. The cohort included 87 participants with LRRK2-PD (13 who underwent DBS) and 14 DBS participants with IPD enrolled between 2009 and 2017. The baseline clinical features, including motor ratings and levodopa-equivalent daily dose (LEDD), were compared among LRRK2-PD patients with and without DBS, between LRRK2-PD with DBS and IPD with DBS, and between LRRK2-PD with subthalamic nucleus (STN) and internal segment of the globus pallidus (GPi) DBS. Longitudinal motor scores (Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale-part III) and medication usage were also assessed pre- and postoperatively. RESULTS Compared to LRRK2-PD without DBS (n = 74), the LRRK2-PD with DBS cohort (n = 13) had a significantly younger age of onset, longer disease duration, were more likely to have dyskinesia, and were less likely to experience hand tremor at disease onset. LRRK2-PD participants were also more likely to be referred for surgery because of severe dyskinesia (11/13 [85%] vs 6/14 [43%], p = 0.04) and were less likely to be referred for medically refractory tremor (0/13 [0%] vs 6/14 [43%], p = 0.02) than were IPD patients. Among LRRK2-PD patients, both STN-DBS and GPi-DBS targets were effective, although the sample size was small for both groups. There were no revisions or adverse effects reported in the GPi-DBS group, while 2 of the LRRK2-PD participants who underwent STN-DBS required revisions and a third reported depression as a stimulation-related side effect. Medication reduction favored the STN group. CONCLUSIONS The LRRK2-PD cohort referred for DBS had a slightly different profile, including earlier age of onset and dyskinesia. Both the STN and GPi DBS targets were effective in symptom suppression. Patients with G2019S LRRK2 PD were well-suited for DBS therapy and had favorable motor outcomes regardless of the DBS target. LRRK2-DBS patients had longer disease durations and tended to have more dyskinesia. Dyskinesia commonly served as the trigger for DBS surgical candidacy. Medication-refractory tremor was not a common indication for surgery in the LRRK2 cohort.

Abstract
Background: While deep brain stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus (STN-DBS) significantly improves motor deficits in patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD), it is still unclear whether it affects personality functioning. Objective: The objective of the present study was to examine personality changes in patients with PD after STN-DBS from the perspectives of both the patients and caregivers. Moreover, by assessing the premorbid personalities of the patients, we tried to determine individual vulnerability to STN-DBS-induced personality changes. Methods: In total, 27 patients and their caregivers participated in our retrospective observational study. They were asked to assess the patients’ personality changes with the Iowa Scale of Personality Changes (ISPC) and the patients’ premorbid personalities with the Big Five Inventory (BFI). Results: Caregivers reported significant personality changes in the ISPC domains of Executive Disturbance (p = 0.01) and Disturbed Social Behavior (p = 0.02). Most of the ISPC domains were positively correlated with Conscientiousness, while Executive Disturbance was negatively correlated with Neuroticism of the BFI scale. Conclusion: Our results show that executive and social functioning are the two most vulnerable domains in patients with PD after STN-DBS, especially in those patients who score higher for neuroticism and lower for conscientiousness on the BFI scale. The results of our study may provide movement disorder specialists with better counseling options and better selection of DBS candidates. Caregivers’ perspective might contribute significantly in understanding postoperative personality changes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We investigated the differences in motor symptom change outcomes after bilateral subthalamic nucleus (STN) and globus pallidus internus (GPi) deep brain stimulation (DBS) in well-defined motor subtypes of Parkinson's disease (PD) to improve clinical decision making. METHODS We included 114 patients who had undergone STN-DBS and 65 patients who had undergone GPi-DBS. The patients were classified as having akinetic-rigid type (ART), tremor-dominant type (TDT), and mixed type (MT) using the preoperative Movement Disorder Society Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale part III (MDS-UPDRS-III) scores in the no-medication state. The outcome measures included the no-medication MDS-UPDRS-III scores and subscore changes at the last follow-up after surgery. The outcomes were compared among the different motor subtypes and between STN-DBS and GPi-DBS. RESULTS At the last follow-up (14.92 ± 8.35 months), the TDT patients had had a greater median overall motor improvement in the no-medication MDS-UPDRS-III scores compared with the ART patients (62.90% vs. 46.67%; P < 0.001), regardless of the stimulation target. The ART patients showed greater improvement after STN-DBS than after GPi-DBS (54.44% vs. 37.21%; P < 0.001), with improvements in rigidity, akinesia, and posture and gait disorders accounting for the difference. CONCLUSIONS Our results suggest that the different PD motor subtypes will have differential responses to STN-DBS and GPi-DBS, that TDT patients will experience greater improvement than ART patients, and that STN-DBS provides better effects for ART patients than does GPi-DBS. In addition, different motor symptoms among the different motor subtypes might respond differently to STN-DBS than to GPi-DBS. All these factors could reflect the heterogeneity of PD. Longer-term outcomes across the different motor subtypes and stimulation targets should be studied further.

Abstract
Over the past two decades, animal models of Parkinson's disease (PD) have helped to determine the plausible underlying mechanism of levo-dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-DOPA)-induced dyskinesia following L-DOPA treatment. However, our understanding of the mechanisms related to this phenomenon remains incomplete. The purpose of this manuscript is to provide a comprehensive review of treatment protocols used for assessing the occurrence of L-DOPA-induced dyskinesia, L-DOPA absorption, distribution, drug/food interaction, and discuss current strategies and future directions. This review offers a historical perspective using L-DOPA in animal models of PD and the occurrence of L-DOPA-induced dyskinesia.

Deep brain stimulation for chorea-acanthocytosis: a systematic review. Neurosurg Rev 2022; 45:1861-1871. [PMID: 35020105 DOI: 10.1007/s10143-022-01735-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/27/2021] [Revised: 12/22/2021] [Accepted: 01/03/2022] [Indexed: 02/05/2023]
Abstract
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is a reversible treatment for chorea-acanthocytosis (ChAc). Its safety and efficacy remain elusive due to the low prevalence of ChAc. We aimed to investigate the safety and efficacy of DBS for ChAc by systematically reviewing literature through PubMed and EMBASE. Inclusion criteria were reports on the efficacy or safety of DBS for ChAc and English language articles, and exclusion criteria were other movement disorders, non-human subjects, and studies without original data. Most studies were published as case reports, and we therefore pooled these cases in one cohort. Twenty studies with 34 patients were included. The mean age of symptom onset was 29.3 years (range, 17-48). The median follow-up was 12 months (range, 2-84). Twenty-nine patients underwent GPi-DBS, two received STN-DBS, and one underwent Vop-DBS. Electrodes were implanted into the ventralis oralis complex of the thalamus and the pallidal in two patients. Symptoms seemed to be easier relieved in chorea (88.5%) and dystonia (76.9%) but dysarthria of most patients (85.7%) was no response after DBS. The Unified Huntington's Disease Rating Scale-Motor Score was used to assess the efficacy of DBS in 25 patients; the mean score decreased from 43.2 to 22.3 and the median improvement rate was 46.7%. Of 24 patients with data on adverse events, complications occurred in 9 patients (37.5%; mostly transient and mild events). DBS is a promising treatment for ChAc with satisfactory efficacy and safety based on the review. Pallidal and thalamic DBS have been applied in ChAc; GPi-DBS seems to be more widely used.

Abstract
Levodopa remains the primary drug for controlling motor symptoms in Parkinson’s disease through the whole course, but over time, complications develop in the form of dyskinesias, which gradually become more frequent and severe. These abnormal, involuntary, hyperkinetic movements are mainly characteristic of the ON phase and are triggered by excess exogenous levodopa. They may also occur during the OFF phase, or in both phases. Over the past 10 years, the issue of levodopa-induced dyskinesia has been the subject of research into both the substrate of this pathology and potential remedial strategies. The purpose of the present study was to review the results of recent research on the background and treatment of dyskinesia. To this end, databases were reviewed using a search strategy that included both relevant keywords related to the topic and appropriate filters to limit results to English language literature published since 2010. Based on the selected papers, the current state of knowledge on the morphological, functional, genetic and clinical features of levodopa-induced dyskinesia, as well as pharmacological, genetic treatment and other therapies such as deep brain stimulation, are described.

Globus Pallidus Internus (GPi) Deep Brain Stimulation for Parkinson's Disease: Expert Review and Commentary. Neurol Ther 2021; 10:7-30. [PMID: 33140286 PMCID: PMC8140010 DOI: 10.1007/s40120-020-00220-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/15/2020] [Accepted: 10/08/2020] [Indexed: 01/20/2023] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION The globus pallidus internus (GPi) region has evolved as a potential target for deep brain stimulation (DBS) in Parkinson's disease (PD). DBS of the GPi (GPi DBS) is an established, safe and effective method for addressing many of the motor symptoms associated with advanced PD. It is important that clinicians fully understand this target when considering GPi DBS for individual patients. METHODS The literature on GPi DBS in PD has been comprehensively reviewed, including the anatomy, physiology and potential pitfalls that may be encountered during surgical targeting and post-operative management. Here, we review and address the implications of lead location on GPi DBS outcomes. Additionally, we provide a summary of randomized controlled clinical trials conducted on DBS in PD, together with expert commentary on potential applications of the GPi as target. Finally, we highlight future technologies that will likely impact GPi DBS, including closed-loop adaptive approaches (e.g. sensing-stimulating capabilities), advanced methods for image-based targeting and advances in DBS programming, including directional leads and pulse shaping. RESULTS There are important disease characteristics and factors to consider prior to selecting the GPi as the DBS target of PD surgery. Prior to and during implantation of the leads it is critical to consider the neuroanatomy, which can be defined through the combination of image-based targeting and intraoperative microelectrode recording strategies. There is an increasing body of literature on GPi DBS in patients with PD suggesting both short- and long-term benefits. Understanding the GPi target can be useful in choosing between the subthalamic (STN), GPi and ventralis intermedius nucleus as lead locations to address the motor symptoms and complications of PD. CONCLUSION GPi DBS can be effectively used in select cases of PD. As the ongoing DBS target debate continues (GPi vs. STN as DBS target), clinicians should keep in mind that GPi DBS has been shown to be an effective treatment strategy for a variety of symptoms, including bradykinesia, rigidity and tremor control. GPi DBS also has an important, direct anti-dyskinetic effect. GPi DBS is easier to program in the outpatient setting and will allow for more flexibility in medication adjustments (e.g. levodopa). Emerging technologies, including GPi closed-loop systems, advanced tractography-based targeting and enhanced programming strategies, will likely be future areas of GPi DBS expansion. We conclude that although the GPi as DBS target may not be appropriate for all PD patients, it has specific clinical advantages.

Balance response to levodopa predicts balance improvement after bilateral subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation in Parkinson's disease. NPJ Parkinsons Dis 2021; 7:47. [PMID: 34045471 PMCID: PMC8160136 DOI: 10.1038/s41531-021-00192-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/30/2020] [Accepted: 05/04/2021] [Indexed: 11/09/2022] Open
Abstract
The effect of subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation (STN-DBS) on balance function in patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD) and the potential outcome predictive factors remains unclear. We retrospectively included 261 PD patients who underwent STN-DBS and finished the 1-month follow-up (M1) assessment in the explorative set for identifying postoperative balance change predictors, and 111 patients who finished both the M1 and 12-month follow-up (M12) assessment in the validation set for verifying the identified factors. Motor and balance improvement were evaluated through the UPDRS-III and the Berg balance scale (BBS) and pull test (PT), respectively. Candidate predictors of balance improvement included age, disease duration, motor subtypes, baseline severity of PD, cognitive status, motor and balance response to levodopa, and stimulation parameters. In the off-medication condition, STN-DBS significantly improved BBS and PT performance in both the M1 and M12, in both datasets. While in the on-medication condition, no significant balance improvement was observed. Higher preoperative BBS response to levodopa was significantly associated with larger postoperative off-medication, but not on-medication, BBS (p < 0.001) and PT (p < 0.001) improvement in both the M1 and M12. BBS subitems 8, 9, 11, 13, and 14 were the major contributors to the prediction of balance improvement after STN-DBS. STN-DBS improves short-term off-medication, but not on-medication, balance function assessed through BBS and PT. Preoperative BBS response to levodopa best predicts postoperative off-medication balance improvement. For patients who manifested severe balance problems, a levodopa challenge test on BBS or the short version of BBS is recommended.

Abstract
Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the direct anti-dyskinesia effect of deep brain stimulation (DBS) of subthalamic nucleus (STN) on levodopa-induced on-dyskinesia in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients during the early period after surgery without reducing the levodopa dosage. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed PD patients who underwent STN-DBS from January 2017 to October 2019 and enrolled patients with levodopa-induced on-dyskinesia before surgery and without a history of thalamotomy or pallidotomy. The Unified Dyskinesia Rating Scale (UDysRS) parts I+III+IV and the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale part III (UPDRS-III) were monitored prior to surgery, and at the 3-month follow-up, the location of active contacts was calculated by postoperative CT–MRI image fusion to identify stimulation sites with good anti-dyskinesia effect. Results: There were 41 patients enrolled. The postoperative levodopa equivalent daily dose (LEDD) (823.1 ± 201.5 mg/day) was not significantly changed from baseline (844.6 ± 266.1 mg/day, P = 0.348), while the UDysRS on-dyskinesia subscores significantly decreased from 24 (10–58) to 0 (0–18) [median (range)] after STN stimulation (P < 0.0001). The levodopa-induced on-dyskinesia recurred in stimulation-off/medication-on state in all the 41 patients and disappeared in 39 patients when DBS stimulation was switched on at 3 months of follow-up. The active contacts which correspond to good effect for dyskinesia were located above the STN, and the mean coordinate was 13.05 ± 1.24 mm lateral, −0.13 ± 1.16 mm posterior, and 0.72 ± 0.78 mm superior to the midcommissural point. Conclusions: High-frequency electrical stimulation of the area above the STN can directly suppress levodopa-induced on-dyskinesia.

Serotonergic control of the glutamatergic neurons of the subthalamic nucleus. PROGRESS IN BRAIN RESEARCH 2021; 261:423-462.

Abstract
The subthalamic nucleus (STN) houses a dense cluster of glutamatergic neurons that play a central role in the functional dynamics of the basal ganglia, a group of subcortical structures involved in the control of motor behaviors. Numerous anatomical, electrophysiological, neurochemical and behavioral studies have reported that serotonergic neurons from the midbrain raphe nuclei modulate the activity of STN neurons. Here, we describe this serotonergic innervation and the nature of the regulation exerted by serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) on STN neuron activity. This regulation can occur either directly within the STN or at distal sites, including other structures of the basal ganglia or cortex. The effect of 5-HT on STN neuronal activity involves several 5-HT receptor subtypes, including 5-HT1A, 5-HT1B, 5-HT2C and 5-HT4 receptors, which have garnered the highest attention on this topic. The multiple regulatory effects exerted by 5-HT are thought to be modified under pathological conditions, altering the activity of the STN, or due to the benefits and side effects of treatments used for Parkinson's disease, notably the dopamine precursor l-DOPA and high-frequency STN stimulation. Originally understood as a motor center, the STN is also associated with decision making and participates in mood regulation and cognitive performance, two domains of personality that are also regulated by 5-HT. The literature concerning the link between 5-HT and STN is already important, and the functional overlap is evident, but this link is still not entirely understood. The understanding of this link between 5-HT and STN should be increased due to the possible importance of this regulation in the control of fronto-STN loops and inherent motor and non-motor behaviors.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the microstructural damage of extrapyramidal system gray matter nuclei in Parkinson disease (PD) using diffusion kurtosis imaging (DKI). Materials and Methods: We enrolled 35 clinically confirmed PD patients and 23 healthy volunteers. All patients underwent MR examination with conventional MRI scan sequences and an additional DKI sequence. We subsequently reconstructed the DKI raw images and analyzed the data. A radiologist in our hospital collected the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) score of all subjects. Results: In the PD group, the mean kurtosis and axial kurtosis level decreased in the red nucleus (RN) and thalamus; the radial kurtosis increased in the substantia nigra (SN) and globus pallidus (GP). Fractional anisotropy decreased in the putamen. The largest area under the ROC curve of mean diffusion in GP was 0.811. Most kurtosis parameters demonstrated a positive correlation with the MMSE score, while several diffusion parameters showed a negative correlation with the same. Conclusion: DKI can qualitatively distinguish PD from healthy controls; furthermore, DKI-derived parameters can quantitatively evaluate the modifications of microstructures in extrapyramidal system gray matter nucleus in PD.
