Interventions
DEVICE

5Hz stimulation on the STN motor subregion

In this experimental arm, Parkinson's disease patients will undergo deep brain stimulation targeting the motor subregion of the subthalamic nucleus at a low frequency of 5Hz, with the primary objective of evaluating its specific effects on cognitive and behavioral outcomes such as inhibitory control and reaction time. The intervention involves precise postoperative programming of DBS electrodes localized to the motor subregion using neuroimaging verification.

DEVICE

5Hz stimulation on the STN associative subregion

In this experimental arm, Parkinson's disease patients will undergo deep brain stimulation targeting the associative subregion of the subthalamic nucleus at a low frequency of 5Hz, with the primary objective of evaluating its specific effects on cognitive and behavioral outcomes such as inhibitory control and reaction time. The intervention involves precise postoperative programming of DBS electrodes localized to the associative subregion using neuroimaging verification.

DEVICE

130Hz stimulation on the STN motor subregion

In this experimental arm, Parkinson's disease patients will undergo deep brain stimulation targeting the motor subregion of the subthalamic nucleus at a high frequency of 130Hz, with the primary objective of evaluating its specific effects on cognitive and behavioral outcomes such as inhibitory control and reaction time. The intervention involves precise postoperative programming of DBS electrodes localized to the motor subregion using neuroimaging verification.

DEVICE

No stimulation

"In this control arm, Parkinson's disease patients will not receive active deep brain stimulation, with the DBS system maintained in an off state throughout the testing period."
