Long-Term Recording of Subthalamic Aperiodic Activities and Beta Bursts in Parkinson's Disease.

These findings indicate that oscillations and aperiodic activities reflect at least partially distinct yet complementary neural mechanisms, which should be considered in the design of robust biomarkers to optimize adaptive DBS. Given the link between increased gamma-aminobutyric acidergic (GABAergic) transmission and higher aperiodic activity, our findings suggest that long-term STN-DBS may relate to increased inhibition in the basal ganglia. © 2022 International Parkinson and Movement Disorder Society.
