Hi guys.
I have some questions here, hope to get some answers from you guys.
(para 1): What is blinded studies?
(para 3): "One of the 3 areas of brain" Which are them?
(para 6): "adenosine A1 receptor activation depresses excitatory transmission in the thalamus" I can't get what it means by this sentance.
(para 10): "do not respond to this dug" Why?
Also, it may be helpful to outline some points about:
Why DBS is still not common?
Why DBS has less effect on depression compared with other diseases mentioned in article?
Ethics of animal models and human trials.
By the way, I have noted some italic words in the article:
para 10: levadopa
para 11: pedunculopontine nucleus
para 49: final common pathway
para 51: basal ganglia & thalamus
I personally think there must been something to do to highlight those words.
All the best to all students taking the paper!
