A Comprehensive Study on Sudden Deafness for Analyzing Their Clinical Characteristics and Prognostic Factors
Conclusion: Factors that influence the prognosis of patients with sudden deafness include age, tinnitus symptoms, high LDL levels, and the type of hearing curve. Early intervention and targeted treatment should be given to high-risk patients to improve the outcome of sudden deafness in clinical practice.PMID:38462901 | DOI:10.1177/01455613241232796 (Source: Ear, Nose and Throat Journal)

Brain Network Evaluation by Functional-Guided Effective Connectivity Reinforcement Learning Method Indicates Therapeutic Effect for Tinnitus
This study proposed a functionally guided EC (FGEC) method based on reinforcement learning (FGECRL) to enhance the precision of identifying EC between distinct brain regions. An actor–critic framework with an encoder–decoder model was adopted as the actor network. The encoder utilizes a transformer model; the decoder employs a bidirectional long short-term memory network with attention. An FGEC network was constructed for the enrolled participants per fMRI scan, including 65 patients with tinnitus and 28 control participants healthy at the enrollment time. After 6 months of sound therapy for tinnitus and prospective fo...

3D digital subtracted angiography venous roadmapping for endovascular management of dural venous stenosis
This study explores the application of three-dimensional (3D) rotational venography in assessing the cerebral venous vasculature and its potential for venous navigation. The methods involve venous 3D digital subtracted angiography (DSA) in patients with dural venous stenosis, with image acquisition using a biplane angiographic system. The results highlight the enhanced spatial resolution of 3D venous imaging, providing anatomical information crucial for precise characterization of stenosis and understanding cortical venous drainage. 3D venous roadmapping is shown to improve endovascular venous navigation, offering synchron...

Long-term treatment outcomes and natural course of low-grade intracranial dural arteriovenous fistulas
CONCLUSIONS: Treatment of low-grade dAVF provides a high rate of symptom relief with small risks for complications with neurological sequela. The risks of ICH and mortality in patients with untreated low-grade dAVF are minimal. Symptoms may not reveal high-grade recurrence, and radiological follow-up may be warranted in selected patients with treated low-grade dAVF. An optimal radiographic follow-up regimen should be developed by a future prospective multicenter registry.PMID:38428004 | DOI:10.3171/2024.1.FOCUS23767 (Source: Neurosurgical Focus)
