TL;DR: Fetal neural allografts could be associated with functional, motor, and cognitive improvements in patients with Huntington's disease and were seen in daily-life activities in three of five patients.

Barker,Philippe Hantraye,Philippe Remy,Philippe Remy,Pierre Cesaro,Pierre Cesaro,Kyriacos A. Mitrophanous +40 more
TL;DR: ProSavin was safe and well tolerated in patients with advanced Parkinson's disease and a significant improvement in mean UPDRS part III motor scores off medication was recorded in all patients at 6 months and 12 months.

Chronic motor cortex stimulation in the treatment of central and neuropathic pain. Correlations between clinical, electrophysiological and anatomical data.
Jean-Paul Nguyen,Jean-Pascal Lefaucheur,P. Decq,Takuya Uchiyama,Alexandre Carpentier,Denis Fontaine,Pierre Brugières,B. Pollin,Annaick Fève,Sylvie Rostaing,Pierre Cesaro,Yves Keravel +11 more
TL;DR: The neuronavigator localisation and guidance technique proved to be most useful identifying the appropriate portion of the motor gyrus which allowed the establishment of reliable correlations between electrophysiological-clinical and anatomical data which may be used to improve the clinical results and possibly to extend the indications of this technique.

Effect of fetal neural transplants in patients with Huntington's disease 6 years after surgery: a long-term follow-up study
Anne-Catherine Bachoud-Lévi,Véronique Gaura,Pierre Brugières,Jean-Pascal Lefaucheur,Marie-Françoise Boissé,Patrick Maison,Sophie Baudic,Maria-Joao Ribeiro,Catherine Bourdet,Philippe Remy,Pierre Cesaro,Philippe Hantraye,Marc Peschanski +12 more
TL;DR: Clinical improvement plateaued after 2 years and then faded off variably 4-6 years after surgery, while cognitive performance remained stable on non-timed tests, whereas progression of motor disability was shown by deterioration on timed tests.
375
Improvement of motor performance and modulation of cortical excitability by repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation of the motor cortex in Parkinson's disease
Jean-Pascal Lefaucheur,Xavier Drouot,Florian von Raison,Isabelle Ménard-Lefaucheur,Pierre Cesaro,Jean-Paul Nguyen +5 more
TL;DR: Low- and high-frequency rTMS of the primary motor cortex lead to significant but differential changes in patients with PD both on clinical and electrophysiological grounds, suggesting a reversed balance of cortical excitability in Patients with PD compared to normals.
