Local field potential oscillations of the globus pallidus in cervical and tardive dystonia

Abstract Background Reports about neural oscillatory activity in the globus pallidus internus (GPi) have targeted general (GD) and cervical dystonia (CD), however to our knowledge they are nonexistent for tardive dystonia (TD). Methods Local field potentials (LFPs) from seven CD and five TD patients...

Description
Summary:Abstract Background Reports about neural oscillatory activity in the globus pallidus internus (GPi) have targeted general (GD) and cervical dystonia (CD), however to our knowledge they are nonexistent for tardive dystonia (TD). Methods Local field potentials (LFPs) from seven CD and five TD patients were recorded intraoperatively. We compared LFP power in thetadelta, alpha and beta band during rest and sensory palmar stimulation (SPS) in patients with general anesthesia and local/analgo sedation. Results We found prominent LFP power activity in thetadelta for both CD and TD. Unlike TD, a significant difference between rest and SPS was revealed for CD. Conclusions Our data support the presence of LFP oscillatory activity in CD and TD. Thetadelta power modulation in the GPi is suggested as a signature for sensory processing in CD.
