Background: Although steroids are effective for multiple types of acute facial palsies, an appropriate dosage remains to be established.
Aims/objectives: The objective of this study is to compare the efficacy of high, low, and moderate doses of steroids in patients with acute facial palsy.
Materials And Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 49 patients with Bell palsy, Ramsay Hunt syndrome, or traumatic facial palsy.
Objective: rTMS is a non-invasive method that applies a brief magnetic pulse to the cortex and is regarded as a possible therapeutic method for tinnitus control. However, it remains unclear whether the rTMS treatment effect would be the same in tinnitus patients receiving the 10-20 EEG-based target localization as in those receiving imaging-based neuronavigation target localization.
Methods: We compared the treatment outcome of the 10-20 EEG-guided rTMS (Group 1) with that of the neuronavigation-guided rTMS (Group 2).
