Deep brain stimulation (DBS) led to an improvement in the patients' nonmotor symptoms (NMS) at the 1-year follow-up, along with a correlation observed between NMS and the patients' quality of life (QoL). Notably, the severity of preoperative attention/memory problems emerged as the most significant predictor of NMS influencing the QoL outcome after STN-DBS at the 1-year follow-up.
