| Abstract | Parkinson's disease is a chronic, progressive and common disease of neurological disorders. Motor complication in parkinson's disease (PD) is resting tremor, slow movement, rigidity and postural instability. The motor symptoms of PD respond well to bilateral deep brain stimulation (DBS). Recent study, there are also reports of worsened verbal fluency, executive dysfunction, and processing speed with DBS. Whether subthalamic nuclei (STN) stimulation worsens there are under debate. The aim of this study was to explore the effects of STN stimulation verbal fluency as assessed with clinical neuropsychological tests. Eight patients treated with deep brain stimulation were enrolled, and some of the patients continued anti-PD medications. Assessments were done both with the STN stimulation turned OFF and ON. In both test conditions, the following were assessed: speech, word fluency A, and B. The score of the word fluency test of all patients have undergone DBS surgery significantly worsened as compared with before surgery. Five patients speech ware worsened, but three patients were improved when the STN stimulation was turned OFF. On the other hand, five patients were reduced the word fluency's total score when the STN stimulation was turned OFF. In this sample, STN stimulation significantly worsened the result of the word fluency test. When the STN stimulation was turned OFF, it was reduced. These finding suggests that STN-DBS might be worse speech conditions and verbal fluency. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
