Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension [PDF]
Seminars in Ophthalmology, 1991 Idiopathic intracranial hypertension ((IIH) is characterized by increased cerebrospinal fluid pressure of unknown cause. It is predominantly a disease of women in the childbearing years. Although the cause of IIH remains obscure, it has become clear that loss of visual function is common and patients may progress to blindness if untreated.

Management of Intracranial Hypertension [PDF]
Neurologic Clinics, 2008 Effective management of intracranial hypertension involves meticulous avoidance of factors that precipitate or aggravate increased intracranial pressure. When intracranial pressure becomes elevated, it is important to rule out new mass lesions that should be surgically evacuated.

Poiseuille Flow of a Non-Local Non-Newtonian Fluid with Wall Slip: A First Step in Modeling Cerebral Microaneurysms [PDF]
Fractal and Fractional Vol. 2, No. 1, 9 (2018), 2018 Cerebral aneurysms and microaneurysms are abnormal vascular dilatations with high risk of rupture. An aneurysmal rupture could cause permanent disability and even death. Finding and treating aneurysms before their rupture is very difficult since symptoms can be easily attributed mistakenly to other common brain diseases.
