Relationship between idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss and subsequent stroke
Conclusions:Idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss did not increase stroke risk. The average annual stroke incidence rate after idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss was comparable with that in the general Taiwanese population. The study patients experienced stroke because they carried the risk factors for stroke. In patients with modified risk factors for stroke, efforts should be made to prevent stroke rather than idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss.

Sudden hearing loss and the risk of subsequent cerebral ischemic stroke.
CONCLUSIONS: Our findings suggest that SSNHL does not significantly increase the risk of ischemic stroke. PMID: 26601553 [PubMed - in process]

VOR Gain by Head Impulse Video-Oculography Differentiates Acute Vestibular Neuritis from Stroke
Conclusion: Video HIT VOR gains differ between peripheral and central causes of AVS. PICA strokes were readily separated from neuritis using gain measures, but AICA strokes were at risk of being misclassified based on VOR gain alone.

Relationship of stroke risk and hearing loss in African Americans: The Jackson Heart Study
ConclusionsThis study provides evidence that stroke risk has a positive predictive relationship with hearing pure‐tone threshold. Level of Evidence2b. Laryngoscope, 2017

The association between obstructive sleep apnea and stroke in sickle-cell disease children
ConclusionPatients who had OSA had a higher prevalence of stroke compared to non-OSA patients by 16% with almost three times higher odds. The difference was statistically significant in bivariant but not multivariant analysis. The rate of hospitalization, emergency visit, and blood transfusion were not affected by OSA status. Screening for OSA in high-risk patients such as SCD children and early management could prevent the risk of SCD complications.

Young nasopharyngeal cancer patients with radiotherapy and chemotherapy are most prone to ischaemic risk of stroke: a national database, controlled cohort study
ConclusionsPatients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma are at an elevated risk of ischaemic stroke, without significant difference among treatment modalities. The relative risk is more prominent in younger patients. Comorbidity may enhance the risk.

Neck dissection and stroke in patients with oral cavity cancer: A population‐based cohort study
ConclusionOur data demonstrate that neck dissection does not increase the risk of stroke in patients with oral cavity cancer. Patients have higher risk of stroke after cancer treatment because of their older age, specific comorbidities, and/or type of postoperative treatment. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Head Neck, 2016

Central auditory processing: behavioral and electrophysiological assessment of children and adolescents diagnosed with stroke
ConclusionChildren and adolescents diagnosed with stroke present a worse performance in the electrophysiological and behavioral evaluations of central auditory processing when compared to a control group.ResumoIntroduçãoO processamento auditivo central refere-se à eficiência e eficácia com que o sistema nervoso central utiliza informações auditivas e pode estar alterado em distúrbios neurológicos e lesões cerebrais, como acidentes vasculares cerebrais. No entanto, apesar das evidências de possíveis alterações na população pediátrica, as habilidades funcionais e as limitações pós- acidente vascular cereb...

Predictive factors of severity and persistence of oropharyngeal dysphagia in sub-acute stroke
ConclusionIn the sub-acute phase of stroke, the predictive factors of persistent dysphagia are not linked to the damaged neuroanatomical region and others factors such as NIHSS value and high PAS score seem more useful.

Stroke After Adenotonsillectomy in Patients With Undiagnosed Moyamoya Syndrome
Conclusions and RelevanceClinicians should be aware of an elevated prevalence of moyamoya syndrome in Down syndrome and sickle cell disease populations and should consider moyamoya syndrome in the differential diagnosis of postoperative stroke. Stroke risk is magnified in the perioperative setting related to perioperative dehydration and hypotension. Awareness and screening for cerebral vasculopathy in high-risk populations could prompt measures to decrease the occurrence of postoperative strokes after adenotonsillectomies.

Evaluation of pharyngeal muscle activity through nasopharyngeal surface electromyography in a cohort of dysphagic patients with acute ischaemic stroke.
Authors: Giannantoni NM, Minisci M, Brunetti V, Scarano E, Testani E, Vollono C, De Corso E, Bastanza G, D'Alatri L, Della Marca G Abstract Oro-pharyngeal dysphagia is frequently present during the acute phase of stroke. The aim of the present study was to evaluate whether the recording of surface EMG using a nasopharyngeal (NP) electrode could be applied to evaluation of pharyngeal muscle activity in acute stroke patients and if this neurophysiological measure is related with clinical assessment of swallowing. Patients were examined and clinical severity was assessed with the National Institute of Health Stroke Sc...

Orofacial functional impairments among patients following stroke: a systematic review
ConclusionsExisting evidence highlights a number of compromised orofacial functions experienced by patients following stroke. These impairments appear to be sustained, with spontaneous recovery unlikely to occur. While rehabilitative approaches may have the potential to improve orofacial function and quality of life following stroke, there is currently a lack of evidence‐based interventions available to inform the development of comprehensive rehabilitation protocols.This article is protected by copyright.
