Short stature, joint hyperextension, ocular hypotension, Rieger abnormalities, and delayed tooth eruption (SHORT) syndrom is a rare primary autosomal dominant genetic disorder mainly caused by pathogenic loss-of-function variants in the phosphoinositide-3-kinase regulatory subunit 1 (PIK3R1) gene. We report the case of a Chinese adult female patient with SHORT syndrome, carrying a PIK3R1 gene variant (c.1945C > T), who developed abnormal glucose metabolism and severe postprandial insulin resistance over 9 years.

Objective: This study compared ocular and cervical vestibular evoked myogenic potentials (oVEMP and cVEMP) among individuals with Parkinson's disease (PD) without dizziness, with nonspecific dizziness (dizziness without orthostatic hypotension), or with dizziness combined with orthostatic hypotension.
Materials And Methods: We prospectively analyzed 30 of each of the three types of individuals who were admitted to Yongchuan Hospital of Chongqing Medical University (Chongqing, China) between June 2022 and April 2023. The three groups received oVEMP and cVEMP measurements using an electromyography-evoked potential system.
Introduction: Chronic ocular hypotony (low intraocular pressure (IOP)) is a potentially sight-threatening condition. Although there is some controversy as to what constitutes non-physiological IOP, generally it is accepted as an IOP of 6.5 mm Hg or less, measured on three separate occasions and lasting for at least 3 months.

Article Synopsis
- Volatile nitrites, like amyl nitrite, are recreationally used for enhanced sexual experiences but can lead to serious health issues, prompting a study from the Victorian Poisons Information Centre covering a decade.
- Over ten years, there was a significant rise in reported cases, with 132 calls about 122 exposures, often linked to ingestion and inhalation; common symptoms included dizziness, irritation, and nausea, while more serious effects occurred in a minority of cases.
- The study highlights the increasing use of volatile nitrites in Australia, underscoring the need for improved community education and harm reduction strategies among users and healthcare providers.
Blood Pressure Variability and Ocular Vestibular-Evoked Myogenic Potentials Are Independently Associated With Orthostatic Hypotension.

Dizziness Center, Clinical Neuroscience Center, Seoul National University Bundang Hospital, Seongnam, Korea.
Background And Purpose: We delineated the association between otolithic dysfunction and blood pressure (BP) variability.
Methods: We prospectively recruited 145 consecutive patients (age=71 [59-79] years, median [interquartile range]; 76 females) with orthostatic intolerance between December 2021 and December 2023 at a tertiary hospital in South Korea. Each patient underwent evaluations of cervical and ocular vestibular-evoked myogenic potentials (oVEMPs), 24-h noninvasive ambulatory BP monitoring (ABPM), and a head-up tilt-table test using the Finometer device.
