Conclusions THOR data show that diagnoses related to work-related noise exposure (NIHL/tinnitus), as reported to THOR, remain important health problems, despite preventive measures being in place. (Source: Occupational Medicine)

Persistence of multiple emissary veins of posterior fossa with unusual origin of left petrosquamosal sinus from mastoid emissary

Doctor — Sun, 29 May 2011 12:51:02 +0000

We describe the
CT and MRI findings of a rare case that had persistence of multiple emissary veins and presented clinically with tinnitus.
The radiological findings included a dilated left mastoid emissary vein, bilateral petrosquamosal sinuses, posterior condylar
veins, occipital emissary veins and an intrapetrous venule. The left petrosquamosal sinus had an unusual origin from the dilated
mastoid emissary vein. The patient also had major anomalies of posterior fossa venous sinuses which are discussed. A relevant
review of literature is included.

CT-Guided Epidural Blood Patching of Directly Observed or Potential Leak Sites for the Targeted Treatment of Spontaneous Intracranial Hypotension [SPINE]

Doctor — Thu, 26 May 2011 04:50:31 +0000

CONCLUSIONS:
Our results suggest that CT-guided blood patching targeting observed or potential leak sites can be effective in the treatment of intracranial hypotension. Prospective controlled studies are needed to confirm efficacy and compare outcomes with other treatment options. (Source: American Journal of Neuroradiology)

Phantom percepts: Tinnitus and pain as persisting aversive memory networks [Perspectives]

Doctor — Sun, 22 May 2011 20:54:44 +0000

Phantom perception refers to the conscious awareness of a percept in the absence of an external stimulus. On the basis of basic neuroscience on perception and clinical research in phantom pain and phantom sound, we propose a working model for their origin. Sensory deafferentation results in high-frequency, gamma band, synchronized neuronal activity in the sensory cortex. This activity becomes a conscious percept only if it is connected to larger coactivated â(self-)awarenessâ and âsalienceâ brain networks. Through the involvement of learning mechanisms, the phantom percept becomes associated to distress, which in turn is reflected by a simultaneously coactivated nonspecific distress network consisting of the anterior cingulate cortex, anterior insula, and amygdala. Memory mechanism…

Vestibulocochlear MRI abnormality in a case of Cogan’s syndrome

Doctor — Thu, 12 May 2011 20:56:56 +0000

Case history A 33-year-old man presented with sudden-onset unsteadiness, oscillopsia, nausea and vomiting, and left ear tinnitus and hearing loss. One month prior, he had developed lethargy and epigastric and thoracic back pain. Liver function tests were abnormal with a mixed hepatitic and obstructive picture. The nausea and vomiting settled, but 5 days after the development of the vestibulocochlear symptoms, he woke up with painful red eyes which resolved within 24 h. Over the following 2 weeks, the patient noticed a deterioration in hearing with probable complete loss in the left ear, a reduction in the right and bilateral tinnitus. He had no significant medical history and was taking no regular medications or recreational drugs. Examination indicated severe bilateral impa…

Mice with behavioral evidence of tinnitus exhibit dorsal cochlear nucleus hyperactivity because of decreased GABAergic inhibition [Neuroscience]

Doctor — Fri, 06 May 2011 04:46:43 +0000

Tinnitus has been associated with increased spontaneous and evoked activity, increased neural synchrony, and reorganization of tonotopic maps of auditory nuclei. However, the neurotransmitter systems mediating these changes are poorly understood. Here, we developed an in vitro assay that allows us to evaluate the roles of excitation and inhibition in determining the neural correlates of tinnitus. To measure the magnitude and spatial spread of evoked circuit activity, we used flavoprotein autofluorescence (FA) imaging, a metabolic indicator of neuronal activity. We measured FA responses after electrical stimulation of glutamatergic axons in slices containing the dorsal cochlear nucleus, an auditory brainstem nucleus hypothesized to be crucial in the triggering and modulation of tinnitus. FA…
