A localized pallidal physiomarker in Meige syndrome.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

Oscillatory patterns in local field potentials (LFPs) have been recognized as disease-specific physiomarkers, particularly in the context of Parkinson's disease and cervical dystonia. This characteristic oscillatory feature is currently employed in adaptive deep brain stimulation (aDBS). However, for other types of dystonia, especially Meige syndrome, a distinct physiomarker of this nature is yet to be identified.

Methods

Local field potentials were recorded during microelectrode-guided deep brain stimulation surgery from 28 patients with primary Meige syndrome. Before surgery, the severity of patients' motor syndrome were assessed using the Burke-Fahn-Marsden Dystonia Rating Scale-Motor (BFMDRS-M). An instantaneous oscillation detection method was employed to ide
