## Abstract We studied 516 globus pallidus neurons in dystonic patients. The firing rate was analysed. We classified the burst activity into tonic, burst, and pause patterns. Mean Β± SD firing rates and tonicity score for internal globus pallidus (GPi) and external globus pallidus (GPe) were 54.6 Β±

## Abstract The pathophysiological changes in neural activity that characterize multiple system atrophy (MSA) are largely unknown. We recorded the activity of pallidal neurons in 3 patients with clinical and radiological features of MSA who underwent unilateral microelectrodeβguided pallidotomy for
## Abstract The pathophysiology of myoclonusβdystonia (MβD), an autosomal dominantly inherited movement disorder characterized by myoclonic jerks and dystonic contractions, is largely unknown. In the present study, local field potential (LFP) activities in the globus pallidus internus (GPi) from tw
