Correlation of active contact location with weight gain after subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation: a case series

Abstract Background Weight gain (WG) is a frequently reported side effect of subthalamic deep brain stimulation; however, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. The active contact locations influence the clinical outcomes of subthalamic deep brain stimulation, but it is unclear whether WG is dire...
