Abstract
Overall, dopaminergic medications and STN-DBS provided similar improvements in balance and gait tasks, although the effects of STN-DBS were stronger, potentially due to reductions in medication doses after surgery. Lack of synergistic effect of treatments may suggest both therapies improve balance and gait by influencing similar neural pathways.
