Deep brain stimulation (DBS) has been employed to treat a variety of disorders such as Parkinson disease, dystonia, and essential tremor. Newer indications such as epilepsy and obsessive-compulsive disorder have been added to the armamentarium. In this review, we present an initial summary of current methods in the management of obesity and then explore efforts in neuromodulation and DBS as a novel modality in the treatment of obesity disorders.

Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Constance V Simpson"

  • - Constance V Simpson's research primarily focuses on the intersection of neuromodulation techniques, particularly deep brain stimulation (DBS), and their application in treating obesity disorders.
  • - In her 2015 article, she reviews existing approaches to obesity management and introduces DBS as a potential innovative treatment option, paralleling its success in other neurological disorders like Parkinson's disease and epilepsy.
  • - The findings suggest that while DBS is commonly used for various neurological conditions, its role in obesity treatment is still emerging and warrants further exploration to understand its effectiveness and safety.
