full textNeuropsychiatric Consequences of Deep Brain Stimulation in Patients with Chronic Movement Disorders
The results of our study were generally compatible with the results of Drapier et al. (2006), Heo et al. (2008), York et al. (2009), Paek et al. (2013), and amazingly similar to the meta-analysis published by Couti (2014) reporting an improvement in the mood of patients postoperatively that declines gradually with time. Is it possible to conclude that these changes are related with the differen...
full textDeep brain stimulation in movement disorders.
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is used for advanced and medically intractable patients with Parkinson's disease (PD), essential tremor (ET), and dystonia who meet strict criteria after a detailed motor, cognitive, and psychiatric evaluation. The potential targets are the ventral intermediate nucleus (VIM) of the thalamus for tremor, the globus pallidus interna (GPI) and the subthalamic nucleus (S...

Background and Objectives: Coronavirus 2019 (Covid-19) has become a global disease that can affect various organs of the human body. Kidney disorders are the most common disorders in patients with Covid-19. Kidney involvement manifests as proteinuria and acute kidney injury (AKI). This virus can cause acute tubular necrosis, protein leakage in the Bowman's capsule, glomerulopathy, and mitochond...
full textTracking the mechanisms of deep brain stimulation for neuropsychiatric disorders.
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) has recently emerged as a potential treatment for medically intractable neuropsychiatric disorders. Pilot clinical studies with encouraging results have been performed with DBS of the ventral anterior internal capsule (VAIC) and subgenual cingulate white matter (Cg25WM) for the treatment of obsessive-compulsive disorder and depression. However, little is known about...
full textThe evolution of deep brain stimulation for neuropsychiatric disorders.
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is the most focal method for stimulating the human brain. In contrast to lesions, DBS is nonablative, with the advantages of reversibility and adjustability. Thus, therapeutic effectiveness can be enhanced and stimulation-related side effects minimized during long-term patient management. While DBS is an approved adjunct therapy for severe, medication-refractory mov...
