Chapter 46 Vertigo and hearing loss
Publication date: 2016 Source:Handbook of Clinical Neurology, Volume 136 Author(s): David E. Newman-Toker, Charles C. Della Santina, Ari M. Blitz Symptoms referable to disorders affecting the inner ear and vestibulocochlear nerve (eighth cranial nerve) include dizziness, vertigo, tinnitus, and hearing loss, in various combinations. Similar symptoms may occur with involvement of the central nervous system, principally the brainstem and cerebellum, to which the vestibular and auditory systems are connected. Imaging choices should be tailored to patient symptoms and the clinical context. Computed tomography (CT) should b...

Imaging Manifestations of Neurologic Complications in Anemia
The hallmark signs and symptoms of anemia are directly related to a decrease in oxygen delivery to vital tissues and organs and include pallor, fatigue, lightheadedness, and shortness of breath. Neurologic complications are often nonspecific and can include poor concentration, irritability, faintness, tinnitus, and headache. If undiagnosed or untreated, anemia can progress to cognitive dysfunction, psychosis, encephalopathy, myelopathy, peripheral neuropathy, and more focal syndromes, such as stroke, seizures, chorea, and transverse myelitis. Imaging can play an important role in the early diagnosis and treatment of these ...

Position statement: Harmful effects of environmental noise exposures
The American Academy of Nursing promotes the reduction of environmental noise, which is defined as unwanted or disturbing sound (EPA, n.d.). Sources of this noise include household equipment, recreational activities, concerts, roads, railways, airports, and industrial sites. Noise is more than an annoyance; it is a public health hazard, having a significant impact on the health of our nation and its economic well-being. It has been well documented that noise exposure contributes to hearing loss, tinnitus, heart disease, stroke, anxiety, stress, depression, learning difficulties, job performance, sleep disorders, and reduce...

Associations between long-term serum platinum and neurotoxicity and ototoxicity, endocrine gonadal function, and cardiovascular disease in testicular cancer survivors.
CONCLUSION: Median 19 years after treatment, increasing quartiles of se-Pt are associated with increasing SCIN score, tinnitus, hearing impairment, and increasing LH levels. However, these associations remained significant only for tinnitus and LH when adjusting for administered cisplatin dose.

Relationship between increased carotid artery stiffness and idiopathic subjective tinnitus
AbstractTinnitus 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 lead to microvascular damage in brain. Our aim was to assess the arterial stiffness of the carotid system in the development and severity of idiopathic subjective tinnitus. Forty subjective tinnitus patients and 40 age- and sex-matched controls were enrolled in the study. The parameters obtained from the participants inc...

The Clinical and Neuropathological Correlates of Second-Impact Syndrome: Case Report of a 17-year-old Female Rugby Player (P6.164)
Conclusions:This is the first case study to report the clinical and neuropathological features of SIS. Larger autopsy samples are needed to systematically identify clinicopathological correlates of SIS to facilitate research on risk factors and preventative strategies (e.g., return-to-play guidelines) to prevent unnecessary fatalities in young athletes.Study Supported by: This work was supported by the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (1U01NS086659-01, U01NS093334, R01NS078337, R56NS078337), Department of Defense (W81XWH-13-2-0064), Department of Veterans Affairs, the Veterans Affairs Biorepository (...

Ten-year-long enzyme replacement therapy shows a poor effect in alleviating giant leg ulcers in a male with Fabry disease
We report a case involving a 27-year-old male with extreme terminal pain, anhidrosis, abdominal pain, tinnitus, hearing impairment, cornea verticillata, and recurrent huge ulcers in the lower extremities. At the age of 16years, he was diagnosed with Fabry disease with a positive family history and very low α-gal A activity. He then received enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) with recombinant human agalsidase beta at 1mg/kg every 2weeks for 10years. Throughout the course of ERT, his leg ulcers recurred, and massive excretion of urinary globotriaosylceramide and plasma globotriaosylsphingosine was observed. Electron microscop...

Abstract 121: Anxiety and Depression in Patients With Fibromuscular Dysplasia: A Report From the US Registry for Fibromuscular Dysplasia Session Title: Poster Session AM
Conclusions: More than 1/3 of patients in the FMD registry had A, D, or both, and these patients showed multiple differences compared to patients without A/D. More study is required to understand this relationship. Given the high prevalence of A/D in this population, FMD patients should be screened for the presence of A/D and offered appropriate treatment.

Assessment of the effect of mesoglycan in the treatment of audiovestibular disorders of vascular origin.
Authors: Neri G, Marcelli V, Califano L, Glicover Investigators
Abstract
It is a well-known fact that inner ear diseases are often caused by microcirculatory disorders, and the recent literature is oriented towards investigations into the relationship between the cardiovascular system and cochleovestibular illness with related classical symptoms: tinnitus, hearing loss, and vertigo or instability. These symptoms, and particularly the vertigo, may be the alarm signal of microcirculatory disorders of the labyrinth or vertebrobasilar circulation so as to represent a possible symptom of posterior circulation stroke. Th...

rTMS Effects in Patients with Co-Morbid Somatic Pain and Depressive Mood Disorders
Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) is a non-invasive neuromodulation treatment that involves the induction of electrical currents in a targeted region of the brain with the ability to impact various functional processes (Chervyakov et al., 2015). rTMS has shown to provide clinical improvement among a variety of neurological and psychiatric disorders and has been FDA-approved for treatment resistant depression (TRD). rTMS continues to undergo trials for other treatment indications including post-traumatic stress disorder (PT SD), generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), bipolar depression, schizophrenia, stro...

Unusual case of traumatic carotid artery dissection occurred during a work-related activity. A case report.
We report a case of a 49-year-old industrial vehicles mechanic who was projected to the ground by the explosion of the tire of a heavy truck he was inflating. In the following hours he presented various neurological signs and symptoms and was admitted to the Emergency Department. During hospitalization the patient underwent clinical and instrumental investigations with AngioCT and MR finding of left internal carotid artery dissection in correspondence of its cervical segment and three acute ischemic lesions in the left temporal, parietal and occipital lobes. Medical management was successful and the patient was discharged ...
