Article Synopsis
  • Tinnitus affects about 25% of older adults, with non-pulsatile tinnitus usually lacking structural causes, while pulsatile tinnitus may indicate underlying health issues that can be identified through imaging.
  • A thorough clinical evaluation is essential for determining the appropriate diagnostic strategy and imaging is warranted for unilateral non-pulsatile tinnitus or any pulsatile tinnitus cases.
  • Imaging methods like MRI or CT are used based on the type of tinnitus and any accompanying symptoms, with special attention needed for potential serious conditions in cases of pulsatile tinnitus.

Background: There are no clinical parameters that predict response to intra-arterial chemotherapy (IAC), which is a first-line treatment for primary and recurrent unilateral retinoblastoma. We evaluated the utility of ophthalmic ultrasound with color Doppler imaging to predict retinoblastoma response to IAC treatment.

Methods: The medical records of 14 retinoblastoma patients (20 eyes) treated with IAC were reviewed retrospectively.

The prodrome of migraine: mechanistic insights and emerging therapeutic strategies.

Migraine is a common clinical chronic neurovascular disease characterized by recurrent, mostly unilateral, moderate or severe, pulsatile headache. It can be divided into four clinical stages: premonitory (prodrome), aura, headache and postdrome. The early warning value of the prodrome in migraine has been largely verified in various studies.

Article Synopsis
  • Migraine is a common headache disorder that can include visual or sensory disturbances called auras, whereas tension-type headaches (TTH) lack these symptoms.
  • A study investigated 400 patients diagnosed with either migraine or TTH to assess the prevalence of skin ecchymosis (bruising) during and after headache episodes.
  • Results showed that 76% of migraine patients had ecchymosis compared to just 11% of those with TTH, suggesting that the presence of ecchymosis could help differentiate between these two types of headaches.
