AI Article Synopsis
- A study treated 41 patients with cervical headaches using T.E.N.S. (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) and assessed their responses based on criteria from the French Manual Medicine School.
- Results showed a significant reduction in pain and improvement in physical function, alongside changes in patients' self-reported pain levels.
- The research suggests that T.E.N.S. is a reliable and effective treatment for cervical headache syndrome, with manual examination data helpful for diagnosing and evaluating treatment outcomes.
Article Abstract
Forty-one patients suffering cervical headache and evaluated in accordance with French Manual Medicine School criteria were treated with T.E.N.S. Results demonstrated significant decrease of pain improvement in physical function in these patients, which was also accompanied by changes in self-report of pain complaints. We think that T.E.N.S. can be a technique extremely reliable, practical and effective in the treatment of cervical headache syndrome and that manual semeiotic data may play an important role for screening cervical headache and for evaluating the results of treatment.

Background: Identification of peripheral nerve injuries of the head and neck can be challenging due to a broad spectrum of symptoms from neuropathic pain to headaches and migraine. This article aimed to present the clinical features and diagnostic workup of patients with acute and chronic peripheral nerve injuries of the head and neck using magnetic resonance neurography (MRN), to demonstrate potential advantages compared with conventional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
Methods: Patients who presented with suspected peripheral nerve injury were either referred for a conventional MRI or MRN.

Aneurysms of the middle cerebral artery (MCA) account for up to 40% of all unruptured intracranial aneurysms [1-3] and 14% to 20% of ruptured ones. [4-5] Giant MCA aneurysms are rare, representing 10% of cases [6], but carry an aggressive natural history, with the UCAS Japan study reporting an annual rupture rate of ∼ 17%. [7].
