Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension After Abrupt Cessation of Medication: A Case Report of Abrupt Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 (GLP-1) Receptor Agonist Cessation and Review of the Literature.

Purpose Of Review: The purpose of this review is two-fold: (1) to discuss a case report of idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) after abrupt cessation of a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist with resultant rapid weight gain and (2) to review the literature regarding the potential role of GLP-1 receptor agonists in the treatment of IIH as well as potential pitfalls.

Recent Findings: GLP-1 receptor agonists have become widely used to treat obesity. Obesity is a known risk factor for the development of IIH, though the precise pathophysiology is unclear.

Crossmodal encoding of motor sequence memories.

In this study, we tested the hypothesis that exposure to specific auditory sequences could lead to the crossmodal induction of new motor memories. Twenty young, healthy participants memorized a melody without moving. Each tone in the memorized melody had previously been associated with a particular finger movement.
