Deep brain stimulation in the treatment of refractory epilepsy: update on current data and future directions.

abstract：:Depression affects at least 322 million people globally, or approximately 4.4% of the world's population. While the earnestness of researchers and clinicians to understand and treat depression is not waning, the number of individuals suffering from depression continues to increase over and above the rate of global pop...
