    Abstract The use of deep brain stimulation (DBS) as a therapy for neurological disorders, especially Parkinson's disease (PD), is widely applied in the field of functional neurosurgery. Both the subthalamic nucleus and the globus pallidus interna are major targets for PD. Experimental DBS is performed using animal models to evaluate new indications and promote advancements in technology. In this chapter, we reviewed our experience with the concept of experimental DBS, including its development and validation. The following work aimed to establish that experimental DBS in animals is an adequate tool for exploring new indications for DBS and to further refine DBS technology.

    Abstract The diagnosis of Parkinson's disease (PD) requires the exclusion of other diseases using various methods. However, it is difficult to differentiate these diseases based only on clinical symptoms, and information regarding responses to drugs and several imaging examinations are often needed for a diagnosis. In recent years, various neurological signs and symptoms have been reported that are particularly useful in neurological examinations for differentiating PD, progressive supranuclear palsy, and multiple system atrophy. Currently, diagnosis using imaging techniques and artificial intelligence are being developed, but systematic neurological examinations will continue to be important in diagnosing these diseases.

    Abstract Levodopa-induced dyskinesia (LID) is a common complication in patients with advanced Parkinson's disease (PD) undergoing treatment with levodopa. Glutamate receptor antagonists can suppress LID; however, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Here, we aimed to evaluate the effect of 3-((2-methyl-1,3-thiazol-4-yl)ethynyl)pyridine (MTEP), a metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 (mGluR5) antagonist, on dyskinesia. We recorded the neuronal activity of the entopeduncular nucleus and examined responses to cortical electric stimulation in the control group (n = 6) and three groups of rats (male PD model). Saline was intraperitoneally administered to dopamine lesioned (DL) rats (n = 6), levodopa/benserazide (L/B) was administered to LID rats (n = 8), and L/B combined with MTEP was administered to MTEP rats (n = 6) twice daily for 14 days. We administered L/B to LID and MTEP rats 48 h after the final administration of MTEP to examine the chronic effect of MTEP. The control and DL groups did not have LID. The MTEP group had less LID than the LID group (p < .01) on day 1 and day 18. The control group had a typical triphasic pattern consisting of early excitation (early-Ex), inhibition, and late excitation (late-Ex). However, the inhibition phase disappeared, was partially observed, and was fully suppressed in the DL, LID, and MTEP groups, respectively. The cortico-striato-entopeduncular pathway is important in the pathophysiology of LID. mGluR5 antagonism suppresses LID progression by preventing physiological changes in the cortico-striato-entopeduncular pathway. Future studies are required to validate these results.

    Abstract Deep brain simulation (DBS) is a widely accepted surgical therapy for Parkinson's disease, dystonia and tremor in Japan. In other countries, DBS has been applied to neuropsychiatric or neurodegenerative diseases, such as Tourette syndrome, depression, obsessive compulsive disorder, Alzheimer disease, etc. So far, these diseases have been treated mainly by neurologists or psychiatrists, however after the invention of DBS, neurosurgeons now play an important role in the treatment of these diseases, especially in Parkinson's disease. Several reports showed that better postoperative outcomes can be obtained when patient is managed by a neurologist who is responsible for stimulation programming and drug adjustments. The therapy should be done while adjusting both the drugs and the stimulation (DBS) simultaneously. Hence, neurologists should be familiar with programming of DBS, as well as the medical therapy.

    Abstract We previously assessed the prevalence and risks of motor/nonmotor symptoms in a large sample of Japanese patients with Parkinson's disease. In the present study, we longitudinally assessed the prevalence and risk of motor/nonmotor symptoms, changes in treatment, disease progression, and death in patients with Parkinson's disease. We enrolled 1,227 patients diagnosed and treated at our hospital in Tokyo at first evaluation. We were able to follow-up 445 patients until the second evaluation, 7.4 years later. Using Kaplan-Meier survival curves and the Cox proportional-hazards model in 1,227 patients, motor/nonmotor symptoms were analyzed in association with the following events: pain, wearing-off, camptocormia, psychosis, orthostatic hypotension, pneumonia, tube feeding, modified Hoehn and Yahr stages (H-Y) 3 and 4 of the on state, and death. The mean age (standard deviation) at the first evaluation was 67.2 (9.9) years, while the mean ages at onset and disease duration were 57.8 (11.7) years and 9.3 (6.6) years, respectively. The mean H-Y of the on state was 2.7 (1.1) at the first evaluation. Age at onset and duration of levodopa use decreased the hazard ratios (HRs) (0.968 and 0.910, respectively) for wearing-off. Female sex increased the HRs (1.414) for wearing-off and decreased the HRs for orthostatic hypotension (0.540) and pneumonia (0.510). Older age at onset increased the HR for psychosis (1.035), orthostatic hypotension (1.033), H-Y 3 (1.048) and 4 (1.071), pneumonia (1.123), tube feeding (1.140), and death (1.095). Early onset of orthostatic hypotension itself increased the HR for numerous events, especially for death (0.893). Our results indicated that age, sex, and some nonmotor symptoms may predict many Parkinson's disease-related events. In addition, these data may provide a useful reference for the clinical course of Parkinson's disease.

    Abstract Hyperhomocysteinemia is an important risk factor for cerebral infarction. Herein, we report on a 30-year-old man previously diagnosed with epilepsy who presented with right hemiplegia and total aphasia. Magnetic resonance imaging showed a fronto-temporal ischemic lesion due to occlusion of the left middle cerebral artery. Clinical testing and imaging demonstrated that he had hyperhomocysteinemia induced by multiple factors including the C677T polymorphism on 5.10-methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (

    Abstract Various methods for the management of motor fluctuation in Parkinson's disease have been developed. Among them, deep brain stimulation (DBS) is an important therapeutic option that has been proved to be effective. However, the indications and timing of induction therapy are controversial. When contemplating therapy, it is important to consider not only the motor function but also the specific disease course and psychiatric aspects, of each patient.

    Abstract Advanced Parkinson's disease is inconsistently defined, and evidence is lacking in relation to device-aided therapies. To update existing reviews of intrajejunal infusion of levodopa/carbidopa (LCIG), we performed a literature search for relevant articles (to November 3, 2020) using PubMed supplemented by hand searching. Retrieved articles were categorized by relevance to identified research questions, including motor complications and symptoms; nonmotor symptoms; functioning, quality of life, and caregiver burden; optimal timing of treatment initiation and administration duration; discontinuation; and complications. Most eligible studies (n = 56) were open-label, observational studies including relatively small patient numbers. LCIG consistently reduces OFF time and increased ON time without troublesome dyskinesia with varying effects regarding ON time with troublesome dyskinesia and the possibility of diphasic dyskinesia. More recent evidence provides some increased support for the benefits of LCIG in relation to nonmotor symptoms, quality of life, activities of daily living, and reduced caregiver burden. Patient age does not appear to significantly impact the effectiveness of LCIG. Discontinuation rates with LCIG (~17%-26%) commonly relate to device-related issues, although the ability to easily discontinue LCIG may represent a potential benefit. LCIG may be a favorable option for patients with advanced Parkinson's disease who show predominant nonmotor symptoms and vulnerability to complications of other advanced therapy modalities. Larger, well-controlled studies, including precise investigation of cost effectiveness, would further assist treatment selection. © 2021 The Authors.
