Subthalamic Stimulation Inhibits Bladder Contraction by Modulating the Local Field Potential and Catecholamine Level of the Medial Prefrontal Cortex

AimsThe patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD) present with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS), but the efficacy of subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation (STN-DBS) on LUTS is unknown. The medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) is a known higher micturition center which are modulated by STN-DBS. We ai...
