No Glymphatic Dysfunction in Trigeminal Neuralgia: A Preliminary Study. [PDF]

Brain Behav
In this study investigating cross‐sectional and longitudinal DTI‐ALPS changes in patients with trigeminal neuralgia, no DTI‐ALPS alterations were detected in trigeminal neuralgia patients. ABSTRACT Background Trigeminal neuralgia (TN) patients are at risk for glymphatic dysfunction due to their prolonged headaches and sleep disturbances.

Comparison of Two Different Pulsed Radiofrequency Modes for Prevention of Postherpetic Neuralgia in Elderly Patients with Acute/Subacute Trigeminal Herpes Zoster

Neuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021
Abstract Objective Trigeminal postherpetic neuralgia (PHN) is often refractory to treatment. Pulsed radiofrequency (PRF) neuromodulation can help in preventing PHN after herpes zoster. This study aimed to compare the efficacy and safety of two different PRF modes on gasserian ganglion neuromodulation in elderly patients with acute/subacute trigeminal ...
