Since the spreading of SARS-CoV-2 from China, all deferrable medical activities have been suspended, to redirect resources for management COVID patients. The goal this retrospective study was investigate impact COVID-19 on head and neck cancers' diagnosis in our Academic Hospital.A analysis patients treated cancers between March 12 November 1, 2020 carried out, we compared these data with diagnoses same periods 5 previous years.47 were included study. We observed a significative reduction...
Chronic subjective dizziness (CSD) is characterized by persistent dizziness, unsteadiness, and hypersensitivity to one's own motion or exposure complex visual stimuli. CSD may be triggered, in predisposed individuals with specific personality traits, acute vestibular diseases. also thought arise from failure re-establish normal balance strategies after resolution of events which modulated diathesis develop anxiety depression.To confirm the role traits linked depression (i.e., neuroticism,...
A relationship between vestibular disorders and thyroid autoimmunity independently from function has been postulated.To shed more light on the actual lesions Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT) regardless of function.Forty-seven patients with HT (89·4% F; aged 48·3 ± 12·7 years), 21 multinodular goitre (MNG; 57·1% 54·1 9·8 years) 30 healthy volunteers (56·7% 50·7 13·9 were enrolled. Inclusion criteria presence normal tests no clinical history dysfunction. Each subject was submitted to complete...
Background: The diagnosis of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) involving the lateral semicircular canal (LSC) is traditionally entrusted to supine head roll test, also known as yaw test (SHYT), which usually allows identification pathologic side and BPPV form (geotropic vs. apogeotropic). Nevertheless, SHYT may not always allow easy detection affected canal, resulting in similar responses on both sides intense autonomic symptoms patients with recent onset vertigo. newly introduced...
Few studies have investigated the neuropsychological profile of Hearing Loss (HL) subjects and effects hearing-aid on cognitive decline. We HL patients at baseline compared profiles with without 6 month. Fifty-six 40 healthy (HC) underwent behavioral examination were baseline. Changes follow-up between (N = 25) 31) hearing-aids. At baseline, significant differences HC found in MOCA test, Raven's Coloured Progressive Matrices (CPM) SF-36. Among mild-HL patients, significantly improved Clock...
Abstract Age‐related hearing loss (HL) can be related to brain dysfunction or structural damage and may result in cerebral metabolic/perfusion abnormalities. Arterial spin labeling (ASL) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) allows investigating noninvasively perfusion changes. Pseudocontinuous ASL T1‐weighted MRI (at 3 T) neuropsychological testing (Montreal Cognitive Assessment) were performed 31 HL (age range = 47–77 years, mean age ± SD 63.4 8.4 pure‐tone average [PTA] > 50 dB) 28 normal...
Mutations in the gene (GJB2) coding for Connexin 26 (Cx26) are responsible genetic forms of sensorineural hearing loss. This article describes a family characterized by congenital profound loss, inherited an autosomal dominant fashion and associated to R75Q substitution Cx26. Cell transfection fluorescence imaging, dye transfer experiments dual patch clamp recording showed that mutant completely prevents formation functional channels despite assembling into junctional plaques, communication...
