Evidence of descending inhibition deficits in atypical but not classical trigeminal neuralgia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
: Trigeminal neuralgia (TN) is a rare neuropathic facial pain disorder. Two forms of TN, classical TN (CTN) and atypical TN (ATN), are reported and probably have different aetiologies. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the functional integrity

Evaluating the impact of trigeminal neuralgia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Patients with idiopathic trigeminal neuralgia (TN) were categorised into 3 subtypes (n 5 225). Group 1 (n 5 155, 68.9%) had TN without concomitant pain, group 2 (n532, 14.2%) had TN with intermittent concomitant pain, and group 3 (n539, 16.9%) had TN ...

Imaging Characteristics of Persistent Carotid‐Vertebrobasilar Anastomoses Detected by Ultrasound

open access: yesJournal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
In this case series, we aimed to evaluate the ultrasonic characteristics of 35 patients with persistent carotid‐vertebrobasilar anastomoses (PCVBA), a rare variant between the anterior and posterior cerebral circulation. Ultrasound detected seven (30.4%, 7/23) primitive trigeminal arteries (PTA), eight (100%, 8/8) primitive hypoglossal arteries (PHA ...

The Evolving Landscape of Immunotoxicity: Charting Mechanisms and Future Strategies for Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor Adverse Events

open access: yesMed Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The use of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) has significantly improved the efficacy of cancer therapy, but their associated immune‐related adverse events (irAEs) can severely compromise treatment safety. This review systematically summarizes the core mechanisms underlying irAEs, which include multi‐organ damage resulting from T‐cell ...

Preliminary results of 45 patients with trigeminal neuralgia treated with radiosurgery compared to hypofractionated stereotactic radiotherapy, using a dedicated linear accelerator. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Radiosurgery (RS) and hypofractionated stereotactic radiotherapy (HSRT) were performed in 23 and 22 patients respectively for the treatment of trigeminal neuralgia. RS and HSRT were performed with a dedicated linear accelerator (LINAC): an invasive frame

Trigeminal‐mediated headshaking in horses

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary This clinical commentary is accompanying the manuscript on quantitative sensory testing and trigemino‐cervical thresholds in a Warmblood gelding affected by trigeminal‐mediated headshaking by Käfer‐Karrer et al. This new diagnostic method is promising for diagnosing a devastating disease which has an enormous impact on the horses welfare.
