Randomized control trial of evaluation of Clemastine effects on visual evoked potential, nerve fiber layer and ganglion cell layer complex in patients with optic neuritis.

Objectives: Optic neuritis (ON) is the most common cause of optic neuropathy; typically presenting with a unilateral visual loss in young adults, with incidence of 1-5 in 100,000 per year. We evaluated the effect of Clemastine, a first-generation and CNS (central nervous system)-penetrant H1 receptor antagonist on visual evoked potential (VEP), retinal nerve fibre layer (RNFL) and ganglion cell layer (GCL) complex in patients with optic neuritis.

Patients And Methods: This is a prospective comparative interventional case series in 25 patients with acute optic neuritis.

Migraine headache in patients with idiopathic intracranial hypertension.

Migraine is a neurological disorder that afflicts many people in the world and can cause severe disability during the attacks. The pathophysiology of migraine is complex and not fully understood. It seems that migraine is common in idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH).

Bilateral Cavernous Sinus Thrombosis as First Manifestation of Primary Burkitt Lymphoma of the Thyroid Gland.

Cavernous sinus thrombosis (CST) is a rare condition that is usually associated with infections, pregnancy, vasculitis and some types of medication, such as the contraceptive pill and paraneoplastic. Primary Burkitt lymphoma (PBL) of the thyroid gland is very uncommon and the clinical description of such cases has been largely limited to case reports. In this paper, we present a case of CST as the first manifestation of PBL of the thyroid gland.
