## Abstract We examined the effects of highβfrequency deep brain stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus (STNβDBS) on characteristics of electromyographic (EMG) activity of the agonist muscle in 8 patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). Patients were examined during STNβDBS (ON), and 30 minutes afte
Cardinal symptoms of Parkinson's disease (PD) respond well to treatment with levodopa and deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the subthalamic nucleus (STN). However, it has remained unclear whether levodopa and STN-DBS have differential effects on bradykinesia. We investigated 8 PD-patients with STN-ele
