Description: Does inhibitory control of arm movements rely just upon the right subthalamic nucleus? Here we tested this hypothesis by comparing The behavioural performance in the stop signal task of Parkinson’s patients who received unilateral deep-brain stimulation (DBS) of the STN either of the left (n=10) or of the right (n=10) hemisphere and in 22 age-matched healthy participants. We found that inhibitory control is impaired in Parkinson’s patients with respect to healthy participants. However, neither reactive nor proactive inhibition is improved when either the right or the left DBS is active.
