Dopamine-dependent high-frequency oscillatory activity in thalamus and subthalamic nucleus of patients with Parkinson's disease
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In recent years there has been great interest in oscillatory activity in the brain and in the role of pathological oscillations in the basal ganglia in mediating some of the symptoms of Parkinson's disease (PD). In this study, thalamic and subthalamic nucleus local field potentials were intraoperatively recorded from pairs of closely separated microelectrodes in six PD patients ON and OFF dopaminergic medication. Using correlation and coherence analyses, we found high-frequency oscillatory activity in the 110-170 Hz band in thalamus in patients OFF dopamine. These oscillations were significantly reduced after administration of dopamine-replacement therapy. In contrast, activity in the lower frequencies (the theta and beta ranges) was increased. However, in subthalamic nucleus, we observed an increase in high-frequency oscillatory activity (150-200 Hz), and a reduction of the activity in the low-frequency range after levodopa administration. These findings confirm and extend earlier findings suggesting that in PD there are marked changes in basal ganglia oscillatory activity and that these can be reversed after dopaminergic therapy.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
