International Journal of Clinical Practice, 1996 SUMMARY Six cases of hairdryer syncope are presented. This is a recurrent phenomenon, never previously described in medical literature, though it has been recognised for some time by some hairdressers. Elderly ladies sit under hood hairdryers at hairdressing salons for periods of up to 30 minutes. We observed that under these circumstances, some ladies

Baylor University Medical Center Proceedings, 2017 Deglutition syncope, also known as swallow syncope, is a neurally mediated reflex syndrome. The common intervention of the heart, esophagus, and stomach by the vagus nerve is central to its pathogenesis, whereby swallowing causes inhibition of the cardiac conduction system.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.We propose a suture‐complementary approach that integrates optical skin clearing with a strain‐programmable luminescent adhesive patch. Hyaluronic acid promotes transdermal delivery of tartrazine to improve optical clearing and stabilizes its interaction with a photosensitizer. Optical clearing increases the penetration depth of visible light into skin,

Unusual Cases of Syncope in the Pediatric Age Group
Case Reports in Pediatrics, 2021 Syncope is common in the pediatric population and occurs in up to 15 percent of children prior to the end of adolescence. While the etiology of syncope in children is often benign and the majority of cases can be explained by isolated changes in ...

Stroke mimic diagnoses presenting to a hyperacute stroke unit. [PDF]
, 2016 Stroke services have been centralised in several countries in recent years. Diagnosing acute stroke is challenging and a high proportion of patients admitted to stroke units are diagnosed as a non-stroke condition (stroke mimics).

Respiratory Medicine, 2014 Loss of consciousness following cough was first described in 1876 as "laryngeal vertigo" Since then, several hundred cases of what is now most commonly termed cough syncope have been reported, often in association with various medical conditions. Some early authors assumed this entity to be a form of epilepsy, but by the mid-20th century, general ...

Beyond the Edge: Charge‐Transfer Excitons in Organic Donor‐Acceptor Cocrystals
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Complex excitonic landscapes in acene–perfluoroacene cocrystals are unveiled by polarization‐resolved optical spectroscopy and many‐body theory. This systematic study of a prototypical model system for weakly interacting donor–acceptor compounds challenges common views of charge‐transfer excitons, providing a refined conceptual framework for ...

Syncope in patients with inherited arrhythmias
Journal of Arrhythmia, 2017 Syncope, a common symptom of cerebral ischemia often shows a multifactorial etiopathogenesis. Although inherited arrhythmias causing syncope is uncommon, such an occurrence could be a warning sign preceding cardiac arrest.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Lithium‐ion batteries (LIBs) remain central to energy storage but suffer from slow ion transport and degradation. Here, we present a binder‐free Ti3C2Tx MXene/GnR hybrid electrode with a porous 3D architecture formed via freeze casting. The structure enhances conductivity, ion transport, and stability, delivering 401 mAh/g, ∼97% efficiency, and 92 ...
