Mirthful laughter induced by subthalamic nucleus stimulation
Open accessAbstract
High‐frequency stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus (STN) improves the motor signs of Parkinson's disease (PD). The three main components (motor, associative, and limbic) of the cortical‐basal ganglia‐cortical circuits pass through the STN. It is not known whether STN stimulation can influence the limbic loop. We present two PD patients in whom acute stimulation of an electrode located in the STN using high stimulation parameters (50% higher than therapeutic) induced funny associations, leading to infectious laughter and hilarity, whereas the therapeutic parameters induced a hypomanic behavior and marked improvement of akinesia. Our report suggests that the STN, with its sensorimotor, cognitive, and limbic parts is not only involved in motor, but also in psychomotor regulation. © 2001 Movement Disorder Society.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
