5-Hydroxytryptamine and postoperative nausea and vomiting after microvascular decompression surgery

Journal of Clinical Neuroscience, 2023
The incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) after microvascular decompression (MVD) surgery is high; however, its underlying mechanisms remain unknown. Serum 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) levels are elevated in patients with PONV. However, the relationship between 5-HT and patients experiencing PONV after MVD surgery is still unknown ...

Surgical Management of a Cerebellopontine Angle Tumor After Sudden Onset Facial Paralysis

The Laryngoscope, Volume 136, Issue 2, Page 972-976, February 2026.
Patients with cerebellopontine angle tumors rarely experience acute facial weakness. In this report, we summarize a case where immediate tumor decompression after a patient presented with sudden ipsilateral flaccid facial palsy resulted in complete recovery of facial nerve function, followed by staged gross total tumor resection. Return of facial nerve

Severe Traumatic Brain Injury in Early Adulthood and Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy: Still an Overlooked Association?

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Recent research has increasingly recognized a potential link between severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) decades ago and the later development of cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA). Although the precise mechanisms linking these two pathologies are incompletely understood, there is a hypothesis that TBI may disrupt amyloid β (Aβ) turnover, with ...

Intravenous magnesium and methocarbamol for acute pain crises in refractory trigeminal neuralgia: A retrospective analysis

Headache: The Journal of Head and Face Pain, Volume 66, Issue 1, Page 183-192, January 2026.
Abstract Background Despite optimized therapy, up to 30% of patients with trigeminal neuralgia (TN) experience treatment failure. To date, there is limited and low‐quality data available on rescue strategies for this subset of patients. This study describes clinical outcomes associated with intravenous (IV) magnesium sulfate and methocarbamol, with or ...

Current Status of Research on Losartan in Tumour Therapy

Journal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, Volume 30, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Losartan, a widely prescribed antihypertensive agent, has attracted growing interest as a potential adjuvant in cancer therapy due to its affordability, established safety profile and pleiotropic effects. Emerging preclinical evidence demonstrates that losartan can effectively modulate the tumour microenvironment (TME) by inhibiting ...

Analysis of Risk Prediction Model for Recurrence of Trigeminal Neuralgia After Percutaneous Balloon Compression

Pain Research and Management, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Objective Trigeminal neuralgia (TN) is a debilitating disorder characterized by severe facial pain. While percutaneous balloon compression (PBC) is an effective surgical treatment for TN, recurrence remains a significant concern, with varying reported rates. The identification of factors that contribute to recurrence after PBC is critical for improving

A Case Report of Hemifacial Spasm Caused by Vestibular Schwannoma and Literature Review

Brain Sciences, 2022
Background: Most cases of hemifacial spasm result from mechanical compression at the root exit zone of the facial nerve by vascular loops, and only a few cases are caused by vestibular schwannoma.
