## Abstract We assessed the effects of deep brain stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus (STNβDBS) or internal pallidum (GPiβDBS) on healthβrelated quality of life (HrQoL) in patients with advanced Parkinson's disease participating in a previously reported multicenter trial. Sickness Impact Profile
## Abstract We studied 48 patients after bilateral subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation (STNβDBS) who were evaluated 6 months after the surgical procedure using the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) in a standardized levodopa test. Additional followβup was available in 32 patie
To assess the long-term follow-up of the globus pallidus internus (GPi) stimulation, six patients were evaluated every year by using the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS). Three years postoperatively, GPi stimulation led to a significant improvement of dyskinesia severity (50%, P = 0.
