Factors predicting protracted improvement after pallidal DBS for primary dystonia: the role of age and disease durationIoannis U Isaias
Department of Neurology, Mount Sinai School of Medicine, New York, NY, USA
J Neurol 258:1469-76. 2011..Our data suggest that subjects with short DD may expect to achieve a better general outcome than those with longer DD and that AS may influence the time necessary to achieve maximal clinical response...

Deep brain stimulation for primary generalized dystonia: long-term outcomesIoannis U Isaias
Mount Sinai School of Medicine, New York, NY 10029, USA
Arch Neurol 66:465-70. 2009..Pallidal deep brain stimulation (DBS) is the best therapeutic option for patients with disabling primary generalized dystonia (PGD) that is refractory to medications. However, little is known about its long-term effects...
Outcome predictors of pallidal stimulation in patients with primary dystonia: the role of disease durationIoannis U Isaias
Department of Neurology, Mount Sinai School of Medicine, 5 East 98th Street, Box 1139, New York, NY 10029, USA
Brain 131:1895-902. 2008..No particular predictive value should be assigned to age at onset, age at surgery, severity of disease, DYT1 status and the presence of phasic or tonic involuntary movements...
Imaging essential tremorIoannis U Isaias
Department of Human Physiology, University of Milano, Milano, Italy
Mov Disord 25:679-86. 2010..In conclusion, PD and ET do not share a common pattern of dopaminergic loss over time. However, mild impairment of dopamine transporter in the caudate nucleus may contribute to tremor onset in ET...
