Endoscopic Microvascular Decompression for Vagoglossopharyngeal Neuralgia

open access: yesCureus, 2020
Glossopharyngeal neuralgia (GN) is a nerve compression syndrome that presents with episodes of unilateral sharp, stabbing pain in the distribution of the ninth cranial nerve. This syndrome may present with cardiac and autonomic manifestations - a condition termed vagoglossopharyngeal neuralgia (VGPN).

Management of xylazine toxicity, overdose, dependence, and withdrawal: A systematic review

open access: yesThe American Journal on Addictions, Volume 34, Issue 6, Page 589-602, November 2025.
Abstract Background and Objectives Xylazine, an alpha‐2‐adrenergic agonist, has been increasingly implicated in substance use and overdose crises. However, little is known about its effects on humans. With the growing public health crisis surrounding xylazine, it has become important to recognize and promptly manage symptoms of xylazine toxicity ...

Inert gas clearance from tissue by co-currently and counter-currently arranged microvessels [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
To elucidate the clearance of dissolved inert gas from tissues, we have developed numerical models of gas transport in a cylindrical block of tissue supplied by one or two capillaries. With two capillaries, attention is given to the effects of co-current

Microvascular Decompression of the Optic Nerve [PDF]

open access: yesSOJ Neurology, 2016
Symptomatic compression of the optic apparatus by a tortuous internal carotid artery (ICA) is rare. We report a patient with visual decline due to optic nerve compression by the ICA. The patient presented with a visual field deficit and standard work-up revealed no discernible cause. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) demonstrated distortion of the optic

Targeted Perfusion Therapy in Spinal Cord Trauma. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
We review state-of-the-art monitoring techniques for acute, severe traumatic spinal cord injury (TSCI) to facilitate targeted perfusion of the injured cord rather than applying universal mean arterial pressure targets.

Effects of Microvascular Decompression on Pain Relief and Quality of Life in Late Elderly Patients with Trigeminal Neuralgia

open access: yesNeurologia Medico-Chirurgica, 2023
Pharmacotherapy is frequently selected over surgical interventions for late elderly patients with trigeminal neuralgia (TN). However, medication may affect these patients' activities of daily living (ADL).
