Effects of STN DBS on Cognition and Brain Networks in PD Patients Analyzed Based on EEG and fNIRS

In recent years, deep brain stimulation (DBS) has become the primary treatment for patients with medically uncontrolled Parkinson's disease (PD). Nevertheless, previous studies have shown that it has been controversial whether DBS-subthal amic nucleus (STN) has facilitated or impaired cognitive function in patients with PD. The etiology of the effect of DBS on the single cognitive domain, executive function, has yet to be clarified. Previous clinical studies in which DBS was performed in patients with PD have been performed under the Stroop effect. TMT (Trail Making Test A and B) cognitive tests and simultaneous acquisition of brain function data by electroencephalograph-functional near-infrared spectroscopy (EEG-fNIRS) have yet to be reported. To investigate the effect of DBS-STN on executive function in PD patients and whether there are differences at baseline, 1-month postoperative (DBS-on), 6 months postoperative follow-up, and 12 months postoperative follow-up. Under the condition of electroencephalograph-functional near-infrared spectroscopy (EEG-fNIRS) bimodal technology fusion, The investigators allow PD patients to operate the test of executive function (Stroop/TMT), real-time monitoring of cranial neurophysiology-oxygenation signals, and explore the changes of the brain function network of PD patients, and hope to achieve the following objectives through objective and scientific-technological means: (1) quantify the cognitive function of PD patients through EEG-fNIRS technology and possible trends of changes; (2) explain whether executive functions differ at the level of brain functional network connectivity between surgical and conservative treatments and whether the differences have interaction effects with treatment duration and treatment modalities, as well as analyze their simple effects; (3) To minimize artificial confounders of short-term learning effects and testers common to previous neurocognitive psychobehavioral tests; (4) To explore the mecha
