Incidence of DWI-positive stroke in patients with vertigo of unclear etiology, preliminary results.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Acute vertigo may be secondary to stroke or to non-ischemic causes. Accurate identification of vertigo secondary to ischemia may lead to appropriate timely intervention that can minimize stroke-related damage and can help in tailoring the most appropriate individual therapy for affected

Discrimination of acute ischemic stroke from nonischemic vertigo in patients presenting with only imbalance.

Only registered users can translate articles

Some patients who present with an acute feeling of imbalance are experiencing an ischemic stroke that is not evident on computed tomography (CT) scans. The aim of this study was to compare ischemic stroke and nonischemic vertigo patient groups and to investigate independent factors associated with

Vertigo due to posterior circulation stroke.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the association between vertigo and stroke in Taiwan using the Bureau of National Health Insurance research database. METHODS Information on adult patients with an index vertigo attack in 2006 was retrieved from Bureau of National Health Insurance research database. All

Serum protein S100β is a diagnostic biomarker for distinguishing posterior circulation stroke from vertigo of nonvascular causes.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND In patients presenting with acute vertigo or dizziness, identifying the posterior fossa stroke as the underlying cause can be a major challenge. We therefore evaluated the serum biomarkers for the differential diagnosis of nonvascular vertigo and posterior circulation stroke. METHODS Of a

Positional Vertigo After Isolated Cerebellar Nodulus Stroke: A Report of 3 Cases.

We report 3 cases (69-year-old man, 71-year-old man, and 82-year-old woman) of isolated cerebellar nodulus stroke patients, who presented with positional vertigo alone that lasted only for 2-4 days. Brain magnetic resonance imaging helped diagnosing these cases. Although rare, clinicians should be

Risk of stroke in patients hospitalized for isolated vertigo: a four-year follow-up study.

OBJECTIVE vertigo is a common presenting symptom in ambulatory care settings, and stroke is its leading and most challenging concern. This study aimed to determine the risk of stroke in vertigo patients in a 4-year follow-up after hospitalization for acute isolated vertigo. METHODS the study cohorts

A comparison of benign positional vertigo and stroke patients presenting to the emergency department with vertigo or dizziness.

To compare imaging utilization between patients presenting to the emergency department (ED) with vertigo and dizziness (VDS) who are diagnosed with stroke and benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV).All patients presenting to the ED with VDS (January

[Dizziness/vertigo caused by small cerebellar/brainstem strokes].

Only registered users can translate articles

Unlike brainstem strokes, small cerebellar strokes can cause isolated dizziness/vertigo with horizontal nystagmus mimicking vestibular neuritis or direction-changing apogeotropic positional nystagmus mimicking benign paroxysmal positional vertigo. Horizontal nystagmus caused by cerebellar strokes

Vertebral Artery Hypoplasia and Posterior Circulation Infarction in Patients with Isolated Vertigo with Stroke Risk Factors.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND We aimed in this study to investigate the prevalence of vertebral artery hypoplasia (VAH) in a population with isolated vertigo in association with stroke risk factors, to determine whether VAH is an independent risk factor for posterior circulation infarction (PCI). METHODS We

Acute vertigo due to hemispheric stroke: a case report and comprehensive review of the literature.

Only registered users can translate articles

Acute cortical lesions rarely cause vertigo. We report a 51-year-old patient presenting with an acute vestibular syndrome including spontaneous vertigo and nystagmus, lateropulsion and nausea due to middle cerebral artery infarction. The central origin of the acute vestibular syndrome was revealed

BET 2: Ability of a normal gait examination to rule out cerebellar stroke in acute vertigo.

Only registered users can translate articles

A short-cut review was carried out to establish whether a normal gait examination can rule out cerebellar stroke in patients with acute vertigo. 16 studies were relevant to the question. The author, year and country of publication, patient group studied, study type, relevant outcomes, results and

Incidence of rotational vertigo in supratentorial stroke: a prospective analysis of 112 consecutive patients.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Single cases with hemispheric, cortical or subcortical, ischemic lesions presenting with rotational vertigo (RV), that challenge the notion of infratentorial or peripheral generation of RV have been published, but the incidence of this symptom in a larger series is unknown. The aim of

Relation of infarction location and volume to vertigo in vertebrobasilar stroke.

Only registered users can translate articles

Vertigo is a common presentation of vertebrobasilar stroke. Anecdotal reports have shown that vertigo occurs more often in multiple than in single brainstem or cerebellar infarctions. We examined the relation between the location and volume of infarction and vertigo in patients with

Transient neurological dysfunction and risk of stroke in an elderly English population: the different significance of vertigo and non-rotatory dizziness.

Only registered users can translate articles

A sample of people aged 65 and over were interviewed at home and asked a series of questions aimed at identifying episodes of possible transient neurological dysfunction. During follow-up of respondents initially free from manifest cerebrovascular disease, no relationship was found between
