Bilateral Subdural Hematomas Without Midline Shift: A Case Report. [PDF]
Subdural hematomas are blood collections between the dura mater and the arachnoid mater of the meninges that can rapidly progress into surgical emergencies. Commonly seen in the elderly and alcoholic demographics, the accumulation of blood can cause midline shifts and brain herniation.

Clinical Dental Midline Shift Is Not a Predictor of the Side of Shorter Hemimandible: A Cone Beam Computed Tomography Diagnostic Study [PDF]
Background/Objectives: Interincisive midline deviation is frequent. Determining the cause (dental versus skeletal) is crucial for treatment planning.

Midline Shift is Unrelated to Subjective Pupillary Reactivity Assessment on Admission in Moderate and Severe Traumatic Brain Injury. [PDF]
BackgroundThis study aims to determine the relationship between pupillary reactivity, midline shift and basal cistern effacement on brain computed tomography (CT) in moderate-to-severe traumatic brain injury (TBI).

Impact of Dental Midline Shift on the Perception of Facial Attractiveness in Young Adults. [PDF]
Background/Objectives: The aim of this study was to quantify the threshold of a dental midline shift that would compromise facial attractiveness and indicate a need for treatment from the points of view of laypeople and dental professionals. Methods: Whole-face natural photographs of a male and a female model were digitally manipulated to create ...

Comparison between Transcranial Sonography and Computerized Tomography Scans to Assess the Midline Shift in Patients with Traumatic Brain Injury. [PDF]
Background Midline shift (MLS) of the brain is an important clinical finding diagnosed on computed tomography (CT) imaging and transcranial sonography (TCS) can help diagnose MLS at the bedside and facilitate interventions to improve outcomes.

Midline shift in relation to thickness of traumatic acute subdural hematoma predicts mortality. [PDF]
Traumatic acute subdural hematoma has a high mortality despite intensive treatment. Despite the existence of several prediction models, it is very hard to predict an outcome. We investigated whether a specific combination of initial head CT-scan findings is a factor in predicting outcome, especially non-survival.We retrospectively studied admission ...

Midline Shift in Chronic Subdural Hematoma : Interrater Reliability of Different Measuring Methods and Implications for Standardized Rating in Embolization Trials. [PDF]
Evaluation of chronic subdural hematoma (cSDH) treatment success relies on radiologic measures, in particular hematoma volume, width and midline shift (MLS). Nevertheless, there are no validated standards for MLS measurement in cSDH.
