Abstract
BACKGROUND Subthalamic nucleus (STN) deep brain stimulation (DBS) alleviates severe motor fluctuations and dyskinesia in Parkinson's disease, but may result in speech and gait disorders. Among the suspected or demonstrated causes of these adverse effects, we focused on the topography of contact balance (CB; individual, right and left relative dual positions), a scantly studied topic, analyzing the relationships between symmetric or non-symmetric settings, and the worsening of these signs. METHOD An observational monocentric study was conducted on a series of 92 patients after ethical approval. CB was specified by longitudinal and transversal positions and relation to the STN (CB sub-aspects) and totalized at the patient level (patient CB). CB was deemed symmetric when the two contacts were at the same locations relative to the STN. CB was deemed asymmetric when at least one sub-aspect differed in the patient CB. Baseline and 1-year characteristics were routinely collected: (i) general, namely, Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scores (UPDRS), II, III motor and IV, daily levodopa equivalent doses, and Parkinson's Disease Questionnaire of Quality of Life (PDQ39) scores; (ii) specific, namely scores for speech (II-5 and III-18) and axial signs (II-14, III-28, III-29, and III-30). Only significant correlations were considered (p < 0.05). RESULTS Baseline characteristics were comparable (symmetric versus asymmetric). CB settings were related to deteriorations of speech and axial signs: communication PDQ39 and UPDRS speech and gait scores worsened exclusively with symmetric settings; the most influential CB sub-aspect was symmetric longitudinal position. CONCLUSION Our findings suggest that avoiding symmetric CB settings, whether by electrode positioning or shaping of electric fields, could reduce worsening of speech and gait.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The subthalamic nucleus is the preferred neurosurgical target for deep-brain stimulation to treat cardinal motor features of Parkinson's disease. Focused ultrasound is an imaging-guided method for creating therapeutic lesions in deep-brain structures, including the subthalamic nucleus. METHODS We randomly assigned, in a 2:1 ratio, patients with markedly asymmetric Parkinson's disease who had motor signs not fully controlled by medication or who were ineligible for deep-brain stimulation surgery to undergo focused ultrasound subthalamotomy on the side opposite their main motor signs or a sham procedure. The primary efficacy outcome was the between-group difference in the change from baseline to 4 months in the Movement Disorder Society-Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (MDS-UPDRS) motor score (i.e., part III) for the more affected body side (range, 0 to 44, with higher scores indicating worse parkinsonism) in the off-medication state. The primary safety outcome (procedure-related complications) was assessed at 4 months. RESULTS Among 40 enrolled patients, 27 were assigned to focused ultrasound subthalamotomy (active treatment) and 13 to the sham procedure (control). The mean MDS-UPDRS III score for the more affected side decreased from 19.9 at baseline to 9.9 at 4 months in the active-treatment group (least-squares mean difference, 9.8 points; 95% confidence interval [CI], 8.6 to 11.1) and from 18.7 to 17.1 in the control group (least-squares mean difference, 1.7 points; 95% CI, 0.0 to 3.5); the between-group difference was 8.1 points (95% CI, 6.0 to 10.3; P<0.001). Adverse events in the active-treatment group were dyskinesia in the off-medication state in 6 patients and in the on-medication state in 6, which persisted in 3 and 1, respectively, at 4 months; weakness on the treated side in 5 patients, which persisted in 2 at 4 months; speech disturbance in 15 patients, which persisted in 3 at 4 months; facial weakness in 3 patients, which persisted in 1 at 4 months; and gait disturbance in 13 patients, which persisted in 2 at 4 months. In 6 patients in the active-treatment group, some of these deficits were present at 12 months. CONCLUSIONS Focused ultrasound subthalamotomy in one hemisphere improved motor features of Parkinson's disease in selected patients with asymmetric signs. Adverse events included speech and gait disturbances, weakness on the treated side, and dyskinesia. (Funded by Insightec and others; ClinicalTrials.gov number, NCT03454425.).
