[PMID: 38750096 PMCID: PMC11096386 DOI: 10.1038/s41597-024-03356-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/22/2024] [Accepted: 05/09/2024] [Indexed: 05/18/2024] Open
Abstract
Here we presented an electrophysiological dataset collected from layer V of the primary motor cortex (M1) and the corresponding behavior dataset from normal and hemi-parkinson rats over 5 consecutive weeks. The electrophysiological dataset was constituted by the raw wideband signal, neuronal spikes, and local field potential (LFP) signal. The open-field test was done and recorded to evaluate the behavior variation of rats among the entire experimental cycle. We conducted technical validation of this dataset through sorting the spike data to form action potential waveforms and analyzing the spectral power of LFP data, then based on these findings a closed-loop DBS protocol was developed by the oscillation activity response of M1 LFP signal. Additionally, this protocol was applied to the hemi-parkinson rat for five consecutive days while simultaneously recording the electrophysiological data. This dataset is currently the only publicly available dataset that includes longitudinal closed-loop DBS recordings, which can be utilized to investigate variations of neuronal activity within the M1 following long-term closed-loop DBS, and explore additional reliable biomarkers.

Double blind, nonrandomized crossover study of active recharge biphasic deep brain stimulation for primary dystonia. Parkinsonism Relat Disord 2023; 109:105328. [PMID: 36827951 DOI: 10.1016/j.parkreldis.2023.105328] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/21/2022] [Revised: 02/12/2023] [Accepted: 02/13/2023] [Indexed: 02/19/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the globus pallidus interna (GPi) is an effective therapy for select patients with primary dystonia. DBS programming for dystonia is often challenging due to variable time to symptomatic improvement or stimulation induced side effects (SISE) such as capsular or optic tract activation which can prolong device optimization. OBJECTIVE To characterize the safety and tolerability of active recharge biphasic DBS (bDBS) in primary dystonia and to compare it to conventional clinical DBS (clinDBS). METHODS Ten subjects with primary dystonia and GPi DBS underwent a single center, double blind, nonrandomized crossover study comparing clinDBS versus bDBS. The testing occurred over two-days. bDBS and clinDBS were administered on separate days and each was activated for 6 h. Rating scales were collected by video recording and scored by four blinded movement disorders trained neurologists. RESULTS The bDBS paradigm was safe and well-tolerated in all ten subjects. There were no persistent SISE reported. The mean change in the Unified Dystonia Rating Scale after 4 h of stimulation was greater in bDBS when compared to clinDBS (-6.5 vs 0.3, p < 0.04). CONCLUSION In this pilot study, we demonstrated that biphasic DBS is a novel stimulation paradigm which can be administered safely. The biphasic waveform revealed a greater immediate improvement. Further studies are needed to determine whether this immediate improvement persists with chronic stimulation or if clinDBS will eventually achieve similar levels of improvement to bDBS over time.

Benchtop and bedside validation of a low-cost programmable cortical stimulator in a testbed for bi-directional brain-computer-interface research. Front Neurosci 2023; 16:1075971. [PMID: 36711153 PMCID: PMC9878125 DOI: 10.3389/fnins.2022.1075971] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/21/2022] [Accepted: 12/16/2022] [Indexed: 01/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Introduction Bi-directional brain-computer interfaces (BD-BCI) to restore movement and sensation must achieve concurrent operation of recording and decoding of motor commands from the brain and stimulating the brain with somatosensory feedback. Methods A custom programmable direct cortical stimulator (DCS) capable of eliciting artificial sensorimotor response was integrated into an embedded BCI system to form a safe, independent, wireless, and battery powered testbed to explore BD-BCI concepts at a low cost. The BD-BCI stimulator output was tested in phantom brain tissue by assessing its ability to deliver electrical stimulation equivalent to an FDA-approved commercial electrical cortical stimulator. Subsequently, the stimulator was tested in an epilepsy patient with subcortical electrocorticographic (ECoG) implants covering the sensorimotor cortex to assess its ability to elicit equivalent responses as the FDA-approved counterpart. Additional safety features (impedance monitoring, artifact mitigation, and passive and active charge balancing mechanisms) were also implemeneted and tested in phantom brain tissue. Finally, concurrent operation with interleaved stimulation and BCI decoding was tested in a phantom brain as a proof-of-concept operation of BD-BCI system. Results The benchtop prototype BD-BCI stimulator's basic output features (current amplitude, pulse frequency, pulse width, train duration) were validated by demonstrating the output-equivalency to an FDA-approved commercial cortical electrical stimulator (R 2 > 0.99). Charge-neutral stimulation was demonstrated with pulse-width modulation-based correction algorithm preventing steady state voltage deviation. Artifact mitigation achieved a 64.5% peak voltage reduction. Highly accurate impedance monitoring was achieved with R 2 > 0.99 between measured and actual impedance, which in-turn enabled accurate charge density monitoring. An online BCI decoding accuracy of 93.2% between instructional cues and decoded states was achieved while delivering interleaved stimulation. The brain stimulation mapping via ECoG grids in an epilepsy patient showed that the two stimulators elicit equivalent responses. Significance This study demonstrates clinical validation of a fully-programmable electrical stimulator, integrated into an embedded BCI system. This low-cost BD-BCI system is safe and readily applicable as a testbed for BD-BCI research. In particular, it provides an all-inclusive hardware platform that approximates the limitations in a near-future implantable BD-BCI. This successful benchtop/human validation of the programmable electrical stimulator in a BD-BCI system is a critical milestone toward fully-implantable BD-BCI systems.

Abstract
Dystonia and muscle spasms are a group of common and unfavorable clinical neurological symptoms. The use of botulinum toxin (BTX-A) abroad has achieved good results in the treatment of various movement disorders characterized by involuntary or abnormal muscle contractions. It is expected to open up a new field for the treatment of myelodysplastic syndromes (MDs) such as focal dystonia and muscle spasm. There are theoretical and practical implications for the diagnosis and development of some effective neurological treatments. The efficacy of BTX-A in the treatment of various focal dystonia and muscle spasm disorders is as follows: symptoms were improved to varying degrees after injection of Botox or botulinum toxin type A (CBTX-A), but Botox or CBTx. There was no significant difference in the efficacy of A. 30.4% of patients had complete remission, 57.8% had significant remission, and 8.9% had partial remission. Among them, HFS and BS had the best curative effect, and the symptoms were significantly improved by 95.3% and 89.4%, respectively. The efficacy of CD was also satisfactory, with 75.5% of the patients showing significant improvement in symptoms, followed by Meg/OMD (OMD) with 73.3% and SD with 3.3%. The efficacy of WC is poor, and functional improvement is uncertain. Other forms of focal dystonia and spasticity also showed significant functional improvement in 60% of patients. Most patients start to see effects within 1 week after BTX-A injection, symptoms gradually improve, and the bridge of curative effect is reached in 2-4 weeks, and the healing effect lasts for about 3-5 months on average. The overall severity of adverse effects was not severe and resolved spontaneously within a few days to ten weeks, with the most concerning complications being ptosis and dysphagia.

[PMID: 35368280 PMCID: PMC8968170 DOI: 10.3389/fnins.2022.823423] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/27/2021] [Accepted: 02/01/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Electrical pulses have been promisingly utilized in neural stimulations to treat various diseases. Usually, charge-balanced biphasic pulses are applied in the clinic to eliminate the possible side effects caused by charge accumulations. Because of its reversal action to the preceding cathodic phase, the subsequent anodic phase has been commonly considered to lower the activation efficiency of biphasic pulses. However, an anodic pulse itself can also activate axons with its “virtual cathode” effect. Therefore, we hypothesized that the anodic phase of a biphasic pulse could facilitate neuronal activation in some circumstances. To verify the hypothesis, we compared the activation efficiencies of cathodic pulse, biphasic pulse, and anodic pulse applied in both monopolar and bipolar modes in the axonal stimulation of alveus in rat hippocampal CA1 region in vivo. The antidromically evoked population spikes (APS) were recorded and used to evaluate the amount of integrated firing of pyramidal neurons induced by pulse stimulations. We also used a computational model to investigate the pulse effects on axons at various distances from the stimulation electrode. The experimental results showed that, with a small pulse intensity, a cathodic pulse recruited more neurons to fire than a biphasic pulse. However, the situation was reversed with an increased pulse intensity. In addition, setting an inter-phase gap of 100 μs was able to increase the activation efficiency of a biphasic pulse to exceed a cathodic pulse even with a relatively small pulse intensity. Furthermore, the latency of APS evoked by a cathodic pulse was always longer than that of APS evoked by a biphasic pulse, indicating different initial sites of the neuronal firing evoked by the different types of pulses. The computational results of axon modeling showed that the subsequent anodic phase was able to relieve the hyperpolarization block in the flanking regions generated by the preceding cathodic phase, thereby increasing rather than decreasing the activation efficiency of a biphasic pulse with a relatively great intensity. These results of both rat experiments and computational modeling firstly reveal a facilitation rather than an attenuation effect of the anodic phase on biphasic-pulse stimulations, which provides important information for designing electrical stimulations for neural therapies.

Abstract
Objective.Adaptive deep brain stimulation (aDBS) is a form of invasive stimulation that was conceived to overcome the technical limitations of traditional DBS, which delivers continuous stimulation of the target structure without considering patients' symptoms or status in real-time. Instead, aDBS delivers on-demand, contingency-based stimulation. So far, aDBS has been tested in several neurological conditions, and will be soon extensively studied to translate it into clinical practice. However, an exhaustive description of technical aspects is still missing.Approach.in this topical review, we summarize the knowledge about the current (and future) aDBS approach and control algorithms to deliver the stimulation, as reference for a deeper undestending of aDBS model.Main results.We discuss the conceptual and functional model of aDBS, which is based on the sensing module (that assesses the feedback variable), the control module (which interpretes the variable and elaborates the new stimulation parameters), and the stimulation module (that controls the delivery of stimulation), considering both the historical perspective and the state-of-the-art of available biomarkers.Significance.aDBS modulates neuronal circuits based on clinically relevant biofeedback signals in real-time. First developed in the mid-2000s, many groups have worked on improving closed-loop DBS technology. The field is now at a point in conducting large-scale randomized clinical trials to translate aDBS into clinical practice. As we move towards implanting brain-computer interfaces in patients, it will be important to understand the technical aspects of aDBS.

Abstract
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) represents an important treatment modality for movement disorders and other circuitopathies. Despite their miniaturization and increasing sophistication, DBS systems share a common set of components of which the implantable pulse generator (IPG) is the core power supply and programmable element. Here we provide an overview of key hardware and software specifications of commercially available IPG systems such as rechargeability, MRI compatibility, electrode configuration, pulse delivery, IPG case architecture, and local field potential sensing. We present evidence-based approaches to mitigate hardware complications, of which infection represents the most important factor. Strategies correlating positively with decreased complications include antibiotic impregnation and co-administration and other surgical considerations during IPG implantation such as the use of tack-up sutures and smaller profile devices.Strategies aimed at maximizing battery longevity include patient-related elements such as reliability of IPG recharging or consistency of nightly device shutoff, and device-specific such as parameter delivery, choice of lead configuration, implantation location, and careful selection of electrode materials to minimize impedance mismatch. Finally, experimental DBS systems such as ultrasound, magnetoelectric nanoparticles, and near-infrared that use extracorporeal powered neuromodulation strategies are described as potential future directions for minimally invasive treatment.

Abstract
Objective: The aim of this study is to evaluate the evolution of GPi DBS targeting. Methods: This retrospective, single-center study included patients implanted with GPi DBS leads for dystonia or PD during the years 2004 to 2018 at the University of Florida Fixel Institute for Neurological Diseases. Each patient underwent a high-resolution targeting study on the day prior to the surgery, which was fused with a high resolution CT scan that was acquired on the day of the procedure. Intraoperative target location was selected using a digitized 3D Schaltenbrand-Bailey atlas. All patients underwent a high-resolution head CT scan without contrast approximately one month after lead implantation and accurate measurement of neuroanatomical lead position was acquired after fusion of pre-operative and post-operative image studies. Results: We analyzed 253 PD patients with 352 leads and 80 dystonia patients with 141 leads. During 15 years of follow-up, lead locations in the PD group migrated more laterally (β = 0.09, p < 0.0001), posteriorly [slope (β) = 0.04, p < 0.05], and dorsally (β = 0.07, p < 0.001), whereas leads in the dystonia group did not significantly change position aside from a trend in the dorsal direction (β = 0.06, p = 0.053). Conclusion: The evolving target likely results from multiple factors including improvements in targeting techniques and clinical feedback intraoperatively and post-operatively. Our demonstrates the potential importance of a systematic post-operative DBS lead measurement protocol to ensure quality control and to inform and optimize DBS programming.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The application of stimulators implanted directly over deep brain structures (i.e., deep brain stimulation, DBS) was developed in the late 1980s and has since become a mainstream option to treat several neurological conditions. Conventional DBS involves the continuous stimulation of the target structure, which is an approach that cannot adapt to patients' changing symptoms or functional status in real-time. At the beginning of 2000, a more sophisticated form of stimulation was conceived to overcome these limitations. Adaptive deep brain stimulation (aDBS) employs on-demand, contingency-based stimulation to stimulate only when needed. So far, aDBS has been tested in several pathological conditions in animal and human models. OBJECTIVE To review the current findings obtained from application of aDBS to animal and human models that highlights effects on motor, cognitive and psychiatric behaviors. FINDINGS while aDBS has shown promising results in the treatment of Parkinson's disease and essential tremor, the possibility of its use in less common DBS indications, such as cognitive and psychiatric disorders (Alzheimer's disease, obsessive-compulsive disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder) is still challenging. CONCLUSIONS While aDBS seems to be effective to treat movement disorders (Parkinson's disease and essential tremor), its role in cognitive and psychiatric disorders is to be determined, although neurophysiological assumptions are promising.

Safety and Tolerability of Burst-Cycling Deep Brain Stimulation for Freezing of Gait in Parkinson's Disease. Front Hum Neurosci 2021; 15:651168. [PMID: 33981207 PMCID: PMC8109241 DOI: 10.3389/fnhum.2021.651168] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/08/2021] [Accepted: 03/31/2021] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: Freezing of gait (FOG) is a common symptom in Parkinson’s disease (PD) and can be difficult to treat with dopaminergic medications or with deep brain stimulation (DBS). Novel stimulation paradigms have been proposed to address suboptimal responses to conventional DBS programming methods. Burst-cycling deep brain stimulation (BCDBS) delivers current in various frequencies of bursts (e.g., 4, 10, or 15 Hz), while maintaining an intra-burst frequency identical to conventional DBS. Objective: To evaluate the safety and tolerability of BCDBS in PD patients with FOG. Methods: Ten PD subjects with STN or GPi DBS and complaints of FOG were recruited for this single center, single blinded within-subject crossover study. For each subject, we compared 4, 10, and 15 Hz BCDBS to conventional DBS during the PD medication-OFF state. Results: There were no serious adverse events with BCDBS. It was feasible and straightforward to program BCDBS in the clinic setting. The benefit was comparable to conventional DBS in measures of FOG, functional mobility and in PD motor symptoms. BCDBS had lower battery consumption when compared to conventional DBS. Conclusions: BCDBS was feasible, safe and well tolerated and it has potential to be a viable future DBS programming strategy.

Different effects of monophasic pulses and biphasic pulses applied by a bipolar stimulation electrode in the rat hippocampal CA1 region. Biomed Eng Online 2021; 20:25. [PMID: 33750406 PMCID: PMC7942171 DOI: 10.1186/s12938-021-00862-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/04/2020] [Accepted: 03/01/2021] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Electrical pulse stimulations have been applied in brain for treating certain diseases such as movement disorders. High-frequency stimulations (HFS) of biphasic pulses have been used in clinic stimulations, such as deep brain stimulation (DBS), to minimize the risk of tissue damages caused by the electrical stimulations. However, HFS sequences of monophasic pulses have often been used in animal experiments for studying neuronal responses to the stimulations. It is not clear yet what the differences of the neuronal responses to the HFS of monophasic pulses from the HFS of biphasic pulses are. Methods To investigate the neuronal responses to the two types of pulses, orthodromic-HFS (O-HFS) and antidromic-HFS (A-HFS) of biphasic and monophasic pulses (1-min) were delivered by bipolar electrodes, respectively, to the Schaffer collaterals (i.e., afferent fibers) and the alveus fibers (i.e., efferent fibers) of the rat hippocampal CA1 region in vivo. Evoked population spikes of CA1 pyramidal neurons to the HFSs were recorded in the CA1 region. In addition, single pulses of antidromic- and orthodromic-test stimuli were applied before and after HFSs to evaluate the baseline and the recovery of neuronal activity, respectively. Results Spreading depression (SD) appeared during sequences of 200-Hz monophasic O-HFS with a high incidence (4/5), but did not appear during corresponding 200-Hz biphasic O-HFS (0/6). A preceding burst of population spikes appeared before the SD waveforms. Then, the SD propagated slowly, silenced neuronal firing temporarily and resulted in partial recovery of orthodromically evoked population spikes (OPS) after the end of O-HFS. No SD events appeared during the O-HFS with a lower frequency of 100 Hz of monophasic or biphasic pulses (0/5 and 0/6, respectively), neither during the A-HFS of 200-Hz pulses (0/9). The antidromically evoked population spikes (APS) after 200-Hz biphasic A-HFS recovered to baseline level within ~ 2 min. However, the APS only recovered partially after the 200-Hz A-HFS of monophasic pulses. Conclusions The O-HFS with a higher frequency of monophasic pulses can induce the abnormal neuron activity of SD and the A-HFS of monophasic pulses can cause a persisting attenuation of neuronal excitability, indicating neuronal damages caused by monophasic stimulations in brain tissues. The results provide guidance for proper stimulation protocols in clinic and animal experiments.

Abstract
Background Conventional Parkinson’s disease (PD) deep brain stimulation (DBS) utilizes a pulse with an active phase and a passive charge-balancing phase. A pulse-shaping strategy that eliminates the passive phase may be a promising approach to addressing movement disorders. Objectives The current study assessed the safety and tolerability of square biphasic pulse shaping (sqBIP) DBS for use in PD. Methods This small pilot safety and tolerability study compared sqBiP versus conventional DBS. Nine were enrolled. The safety and tolerability were assessed over a 3-h period on sqBiP. Friedman’s test compared blinded assessments at baseline, washout, and 30 min, 1 h, 2 h, and 3 h post sqBIP. Results Biphasic pulses were safe and well tolerated by all participants. SqBiP performed as well as conventional DBS without significant differences in motor scores nor accelerometer or gait measures. Conclusion Biphasic pulses were well-tolerated and provided similar benefit to conventional DBS. Further studies should address effectiveness of sqBIP in select PD patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Drawing on the seminal work of DeLong, Albin, and Young, we have now entered an era of basal ganglia neuromodulation. Understanding, re-evaluating, and leveraging the lessons learned from neuromodulation will be crucial to facilitate an increased and improved application of neuromodulation in human disease. METHODS We will focus on deep brain stimulation (DBS) - the most common form of basal ganglia neuromodulation - however, similar principles can apply to other neuromodulation modalities. We start with a brief review of DBS for Parkinson's disease, essential tremor, dystonia, and Tourette syndrome. We then review hallmark studies on basal ganglia circuits and electrophysiology resulting from decades of experience in neuromodulation. The organization and content of this paper follow Dr. Okun's Lecture from the 2018 Parkinsonism and Related Disorders World Congress. RESULTS Information gained from neuromodulation has led to an expansion of the basal ganglia rate model, an enhanced understanding of nuclei dynamics, an emerging focus on pathological oscillations, a revision of the tripartite division of the basal ganglia, and a redirected focus toward individualized symptom-specific stimulation. Though there have been many limitations of the basal ganglia "box model," the construct provided the necessary foundation to advance the field. We now understand that information in the basal ganglia is encoded through complex neural responses that can be reliably measured and used to infer disease states for clinical translation. CONCLUSIONS Our deepened understanding of basal ganglia physiology will drive new neuromodulation strategies such as adaptive DBS or cell-specific neuromodulation through the use of optogenetics.

Abstract
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is a neurosurgical technique, which consists of continuous delivery of an electrical pulse through chronically implanted electrodes connected to a neurostimulator, programmable in amplitude, pulse width, frequency, and stimulation channel. DBS is a promising treatment option for addressing severe and drug-resistant movement disorders. The success of DBS therapy is a combination of surgical implantation techniques, device technology, and clinical programming strategies. Changes in device settings require highly trained and experienced clinicians to achieve maximal therapeutic benefit for each targeted symptom, and optimization of stimulation parameters can take many visits. Thus, the development of innovative DBS technologies that can optimize the clinical implementation of DBS will lead to wider scale utilization. This review aims to present engineering approaches that have the potential to improve clinical outcomes of DBS, focusing on the development novel temporal patterns, innovative electrode designs, computational models to guide stimulation, closed-loop DBS, and remote programming.
