HEADACHE DETERMINES QUALITY OF LIFE IN IIH [PDF]
Background There have been no previous studies assessing quality of life (QOL) in idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH). Our previously published prospective cohort study confirmed that weight loss, significantly reduced intracranial pressure (ICP) and treated chronic active IIH. Method We assessed QOL using the short form 36 questionnaires (SF-

Correlation of Imaging Findings to Opening Pressure in IIH
In Idiopathic intracranial hypertension, Flattening of globe, fluid in optic nerve sheath, empty sella all suggest elevated pressure on MRI. Flattening of venous sinus at transverse/sigmoid sinus junction on MRV has been debated as a cause vs consequence

Antipsychotic pitfalls: Risperidone-induced idiopathic intracranial hypertension
Idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) is a rare but potentially severe condition causing visual loss. Use of many drugs has been associated with the occurrence of IIH.

Intracerebroventricular injection of neuropeptide Y suppresses luteinizing hormone pulses in mice
Abstract Stress impairs reproduction, at least in part, by inhibition of Kisspeptin/Neurokinin B/Dynorphin (KNDy) cells and suppression of gonadotropin secretion. However, the mechanism for this inhibition is not clear. Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is a pleiotropic molecule that is produced in neurons throughout the brain and mediates several physiological ...

An eye on long‐duration spaceflight: Controversies, countermeasures and challenges
Abstract Space flight‐associated neuroocular syndrome (SANS) is a consequence of long‐duration space flight and is detected in two‐thirds of astronauts. In‐flight, this can cause a change in the refraction of the eyes, requiring graded hypermetropic ‘superfocus adjustable’ glasses, optic nerve head oedema and choroidal folds.

Structural olfactory nerve changes in patients suffering from idiopathic intracranial hypertension. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Complications of idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) are usually caused by elevated intracranial pressure (ICP). In a similar way as in the optic nerve, elevated ICP could also compromise the olfactory nerve system.

The graphical abstract summarizes the current evidence on the potential neuroprotective effects of tirzepatide (TZP), a dual GIP/GLP‐1 receptor agonist, across mechanistic, preclinical, and clinical domains. Mechanistically, TZP is proposed to exert direct neural effects, preserve mitochondrial function, reduce apoptosis, oxidative stress, and ...

IIH in a child of prepubertal age
Studies of papilledema in children have noted idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) as the most common etiology. The presentation is different from that in adults and can pose a diagnostic challenge in some cases. One-third of the IIH cases in children can be secondary to certain medications or systemic conditions, and in such situations, they are
