Clinical characteristics of persistent postural ‐perceptual dizziness and its visual subtype in Korean patients: A multicenter cross‐sectional study
ConclusionThis is the first comprehensive nationwide study examining clinical features of both definite PPPD patients and its clinical variants, considering visual exacerbating factors. Differences in dizziness and personality traits emerged between definite PPPD and its potential variant without visual issues. Our results highlight the possibility of a distinct clinical variant of PPPD influenced by visual dependency. (Source: Brain and Behavior)

Antidepressant-induced Paradoxical Anxiety, Akathisia, and Complex Vocal Tics in a Patient with Panic Disorder and Crohn's Disease: A Case Report
CONCLUSION: Antidepressant-induced akathisia and tics are often distressing both to the patient and their loved ones, and they can be very puzzling to the clinician. It is important for clinicians to recognise that, although rare, antidepressants can have the adverse effects of akathisia and tics in patients. When these symptoms arise, it should prompt immediate discontinuation of the offending antidepressant.PMID:38251693 | DOI:10.2174/0115748863270093231114075934 (Source: Current Drug Safety)
