Bilaterally progressive tinnitus and hearing impairment occurred in a hypertensive patient shortly after an episode of right ganglionic hemorrhage. Audiometric tests showed a mixed sensorineural and conduction hearing loss. When low-dose gabapentin was administrated for the pre-existing postherpetic
The authors report on a case of tinnitus suppression following deep brain stimulation (DBS) for Parkinson disease. A perioperative focal vascular injury to area LC, a locus of the caudate at the junction of the head and body of the caudate nucleus, is believed to be the neuroanatomical correlate. A
OBJECTIVE
Intracranial dural arteriovenous fistulas (DAVFs) can be complicated by ischemic stroke. This study investigated the frequency and determinants of ischemic stroke in patients with intracranial DAVF.
METHODS
We conducted a retrospective study of consecutive patients with intracranial DAVF.
Acute hearing loss (AHL) has traditionally been considered to be a neglected and underestimated symptom of stroke. However, because the blood supply to the auditory system originates from the vertebrobasilar system, stroke in the distribution of the vertebrobasilar circulation can present with acute
OBJECTIVE
We investigated risk factors of sensorineural hearing loss (SHL) in patients with early stage of ischemic stroke (IS).
METHODS
Our study consisted of 60 patients with IS who were treated at Department of Neurology, Medical University of Gdansk between 2006 and 2007. A multivariate stepwise
OBJECTIVE
To explore the dynamic state of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndromes in acute ischemic stroke patients within 30 days of onset when treated with acupuncture, and to analyze the discrimination effects of the functions based on "decision trees" in identification of TCM syndromes of
Tinnitus is defined as perception of sound with no external stimulus, and can separate into pulsatile and non-pulsatile types. Arterial stiffness is a parameter that can predict the cardiovascular event and associated with incidence of stroke. It has been shown that increased arterial stiffness may
OBJECTIVE
We sought to determine whether the results of audiological tests and tinnitus characteristics, particularly tinnitus pitch and minimum masking level (MML), depend on tinnitus etiology, and what other etiology-specific tinnitus characteristics there are.
METHODS
The patients answered
BACKGROUND
Ischemic stroke (IS) is a common disease, often resulting in death or disability. Previous studies on prognosis of stroke mainly focused on the baseline condition or modern expensive tests. However, the change of clinical symptoms during acute stage is considerably neglected. In our
Our aim was to investigate whether pulsatile tinnitus (PT) in cervical artery dissection (CeAD) has prognostic significance.
All CeAD patients from the CADISP (Cervical Artery Dissection and Ischemic Stroke Patients) study with documentation of PT were analysed. The presence of PT was systematically
Arterial hypertension belongs to the most important factors of origin and lasting of tinnitus. We have studied 18 subjects suffering from tinnitus without the history of diagnosed or treated arterial hypertension. ABPM method was used for diagnosing arterial hypertension. 12 patients (66%) fulfilled
OBJECTIVE
Recent research suggests that hearing impairment is declining among older adults compared with earlier generations of the same age. Tinnitus is often associated with hearing impairment, so one might hypothesize that the prevalence of tinnitus is declining in a similar manner. The purpose
Background: Stroke scales of traditional Chinese medicine (SSTCM) are promoted for use in the early prognosis. The current lines of evidence to support their performance evaluation are uneven. This pilot study aimed to investigate the
Carotid artery dissection, one of the most common causes of stroke in patients younger than 40 years of age, may develop spontaneously or after trauma. In 85% of cases, central neurological signs such as stroke, transient ischemic attack and amarozis fugax are seen, while headache and cranial nerve
BACKGROUND
Tinnitus and ischemic cerebrovascular disease (ICVD) may share common pathophysiologic mechanisms. Nevertheless, no studies have investigated whether tinnitus is associated with a higher risk of ICVD. The aim of this study was to evaluate the risk of ICVD among young and middle-aged
