## Abstract We investigated the impact of subthalamic nucleus (STN) deep brain stimulation (DBS) on quality of life (QOL) in patients with advanced Parkinson's disease, as self‐assessed before and after surgery by completing the Parkinson's Disease Questionnaire (PDQ39). In addition to this prospec
Postural control requires precise integration of sensory inputs and motor output, but clinical assessments of postural control do not differentiate between these. Previously, we found that this differentiation is important in Parkinson's disease (PD) as there was a dissociated effect of medication v
## Abstract We assessed the effects of deep brain stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus (STN‐DBS) or internal pallidum (GPi‐DBS) on health‐related quality of life (HrQoL) in patients with advanced Parkinson's disease participating in a previously reported multicenter trial. Sickness Impact Profile
## Abstract Acute and chronic behavioral effects of subthalamic stimulation (STN‐DBS) for Parkinson's disease (PD) are reported in the literature. As the technique is relatively new, few systematic studies on the behavioral effects in long‐term treated patients are available. To further study the p
