Functional Connectivity to the Cerebellum and Resting‐State Networks Predict Earlier Improvement of Dystonia Following Globus Pallidus Internus‐Deep Brain Stimulation ( <scp>GPi‐DBS)</scp>

These findings support a broader network model integrating cerebellum, limbic system, and basal ganglia in dystonia. Stimulation of cerebellar-connected circuits may accelerate improvement independent of classical somatomotor networks. Results highlight novel targets and mechanisms for improving DBS effectiveness, suggesting multitarget, network-informed strategies could enhance therapeutic outcomes. © 2025 The Author(s).
