概括
脑下核深度大脑刺激 (STN-DBS) 很少会导致帕金森病患者的步态结 (FoG). 这一案例突显了刺激调整后的FOG发作,即使设备关闭时也会持续存在,这是一个罕见且不太了解的现象.
科学领域:
- 神经学 神经学
- 神经外科 神经外科
- 运动障碍 运动障碍
背景情况:
- 步态结 (FoG) 是帕金森病 (PD) 的一个衰弱的症状.
- 亚thalamic核深脑刺激 (STN-DBS) 有效地管理PD运动症状,但其对FoG的影响是可变的.
- 矛盾的是,STN-DBS可以在某些患者中诱导或恶化FoG.
研究的目的:
- 在STN-DBS调整后报告一种独特的阳性发育的FOG病例.
- 调查刺激参数变化后FoG诱导背后的潜在机制.
- 为了强调耐火性后STN-DBS FoG的稀有性和复杂性.
主要方法:
- 一个62岁的女性病例报告,患有异常性PD,接受STN-DBS治疗.
- 与插入,激活和刺激调整相关的FoG发病时间的分析.
- 评估刺激参数 (频率,领先位置) 和药物效应.
- 在刺激"开启"和"关闭"状态期间评估FoG严重程度.
主要成果:
- 在STN-DBS刺激调整后两天,FoG发生,而不是插入或初始激活.
- 尽管对刺激参数和药物进行了多次调整,但FoG仍然存在,包括在设备"关闭"试验期间.
- 低频刺激 (55 Hz) 仅提供了部分的,暂时的FOG改善.
- 证实了STN内部的活跃联系,排除了严重的错位.
结论:
- 这一案例呈现出一种罕见的耐火性FoG在STN-DBS调整后出现的罕见实例,与之前报告的病因学不同.
- 持续的FOG,即使设备关闭,表明持久的不良影响可能与刺激调整相关.
- 对位和刺激参数进行进一步的全面报告对于在STN-DBS后了解和管理阳性FoG至关重要.

Ischemic Stroke ll: Pathophysiology
An ischemic stroke occurs when a cerebral blood vessel becomes obstructed, most often by a thrombus or embolus, interrupting the delivery of oxygen and glucose to brain tissue. Because neurons rely on continuous aerobic metabolism, energy failure begins within minutes of reduced perfusion. The region receiving the least blood flow becomes the infarct core, an area of irreversible cellular death. Surrounding this core lies the penumbra, a zone of hypoperfused but still viable tissue that is...
Encephalitis ll: Pathophysiology
Encephalitis is inflammation of the brain parenchyma caused by direct viral invasion or immune-mediated mechanisms triggered by infections or tumors. Both processes lead to neuronal injury, disrupted neurotransmission, and diverse neurological symptoms, often with overlapping clinical and pathological features.Autoimmune EncephalitisIn autoimmune encephalitis, antibodies target neuronal antigens on cell surfaces, synapses, or within neurons. A key example is anti-NMDAR encephalitis, which can...
