Intratympanale Intervalltherapie des Morbus Meni�re mit Gentamicin unter Erhalt der Kochleafunktion
2003
Patienten und Methode Zwischen 1997 und 2000 haben wir 57 Patienten intratympanal einseitig mit Gentamicininjektionen (jeweils 0,3 ml = 12 mg) therapiert. Eine Therapieserie bestand maximal aus je einer Injektion an Tag 1, 8 und 15. Intratympanal injiziertes Gentamicin akkumuliert langsam (Durchschnitt unseres Krankenguts: 4,6 Tage) im Innenohr. Die Intervalltherapie vermeidet uberhohte Gentamicinkonzentrationen. Sobald Zeichen einer Innenohrreaktion auftreten (Nystagmus, Unsicherheit, Schwindel), hat die Therapie gewirkt und darf keinesfalls weitergefuhrt werden.
Who is at risk for ongoing dizziness and psychological strain after a vestibular disorder?
2009
Patients with vestibular vertigo syndromes often suffer from anxiety and depression, whereas patients with psychiatric disorders often experience subjective unsteadiness, dizziness, or vertigo. Thus, it has been hypothesized that the vestibular system may be interlinked with the emotion processing systems. The aim of the current study was to evaluate this hypothesis by correlating vestibular and psychiatric symptoms with the course of the disease over 1 year. This interdisciplinary, prospective, longitudinal study included a total of 68 patients with acute vestibular vertigo syndromes. Four subgroups of patients with benign paroxysmal positioning vertigo (BPPV, n=19), acute vestibular neuri…
Cell-specific accumulation patterns of gentamicin in the guinea pig cochlea.
2015
Intratympanic gentamicin therapy has become a popular treatment modality for Meniere's disease (MD) through controlled elimination of vertigo spells caused by the balance organ. However, the known ototoxic properties of aminoglycosides lead to cochlear damage. In order to gain more information about cellular preferences for aminoglycoside accumulation within the cochlea, gentamicin was immuno histochemically localized by light microscopy in male guinea pigs 1 and 7 days after intratympanic application (n = 8 ears/incubation time). Differences in the gentamicin-specific cellular storage capacities were quantified by determination of the local immuno staining intensities. Gentamicin was detec…
Decision making for solitary vestibular schwannoma and contralateral Meniere's disease.
2007
The existence of dual inner ear pathology such as unilateral Meniere’s disease (MD) with a contralateral vestibular schwannoma (VS) is very rare, but provides the otologist with a significant management dilemma. In this study, we present 5 cases of unilateral disabling MD with a contralateral VS in the better hearing ear. Conservative management of the VS is mandated unless there are impending complications, with management directed toward controlling the vertigo attributed to MD. If and when the VS requires intervention, or the hearing in that ear deteriorates to unserviceable levels, cochlear implant of the ear affected by MD prior to addressing the VS provides optimal management.
Long-Term Results after Interval Therapy with Intratympanic Gentamicin for Meni??re???s Disease
2004
Objectives The new single-shot and interval treatment for Meniere's disease with gentamicin was designed to avoid cochlear damage during treatment with gentamicin. Methods To date, 90 patients were treated with the single-shot or interval gentamicin therapy. Fifty-seven cases of Meniere's disease were followed up prospectively between 2 and 4 years. During one treatment series, a maximum of three intratympanic gentamicin injections within 15 days were applied, each consisting of 0.3 mL (12 mg) of gentamicin (days 1, 8, and 15). Thirty of these 57 patients (53%) needed only one injection to be controlled (single-shot treatment). Results Vertigo attacks were completely controlled in 95% and p…
MENIERE’S DISEASE & NEUROVASCULAR CROSS-COMPRESSION: CASE REPORT
2009
Meniere’s disease is typically characterized by the classic symptomatological triad consisting of vertigo associated with nausea and vomiting, fluctuating but progressive hearing loss, and tinnitus. The main pathophysiological substrate of Meniere's disease is certainly endolymphatic hydrops, the etiology of which is probably multifactorial, but still not completely understood. Recently, it has been shown that vertigo, hearing loss, and tinnitus can be the result of a vascular loop impinging on the VIIIth nerve and giving rise to the symptomatological complex that can been defined as Meniere's disease due to ‘cochleovestibular nerve compression syndrome’ (CNCS). In this cases the surgical t…
Il servizio della Croce Rossa Italiana nelle zolfare di Sicilia dal 1898 al 1913.
2008
La Croce Rossa Italiana nelle miniere di zolfo in Sicilia ha iniziato a svolgere il suo primo servizio in tempo di pace nel 1898, a 34 anni dalla sua fondazione. E' stata ammirevole l'attività di I. Di Giovanni e di altri medici, anche dell'Università degli Studi di Palermo, quali A. Trmbusti ed i suoi allievi A. Amato e G. Gabrielli. Il servizio ha interessato all'esordio gli infortuni sul lavoro e successivamente anche la lotta all'anchilostomiasi e alla malari. Le norme hanno imposto agli industriali lo sviluppo di un sistema di tutela assicurativa e la costituzione in sindacato, al pari di altre nazioni europee. la presenza della Croce Rossa si è protratta fino al 1913, quando il Sindac…

Pēctransplantācijas cukura diabēta riska faktoru analīze nieres transplantācijas pacientiem
2020
Ievads. Pēctransplantācijas cukura diabēts (PTCD) ir relatīvi bieža komplikācija, kas attīstās pacientiem pēc nieres transplantācijas (NT), predisponējot viņus mikrovaskulārām un kardiovaskulārām komplikācijām, kā arī biežām infekcijām, tādējādi ietekmējot transplantāta un pacienta dzīvildzi. PTCD parasti attīstās agrīnā pēctransplantācijas periodā, un to diagnosticē saskaņā ar vadlīnijām. PTCD attīstībā svarīga loma ir riska faktoriem (RF), kas dalās modificējamos un nemodificējamos. Mērķis. Izanalizēt PTCD prevalenci, asociētos riska faktorus un NT funkciju transplantācijas pacientiem Latvijā. Metodes. Retrospektīvā pētījumā tika analizēti 216 pacientu dati, kuriem veikta NT laika periodā…
La "grazia suprema" della poesia sabiana nella vocazione artistica di Elsa Morante.
2014
Gli anni Cinquanta si disegnano nella parabola artistica di Elsa Morante come lo scenario dell’ «infanzia appassionata», dell’avventura procidana ma anche della feracità saggistica, della militanza etica, di quella vigilanza civile da cui germineranno scritti come Pro o contro la bomba atomica del 1965, sotto la cui insegna verrano poi raccolti, postumi, da Cesare Garboli, alcuni tra i più significativi interventi critici maturati dalla scrittrice proprio nel decennio precedente. Spiccano, in tal senso, per esemplarità artistica ed intellettuale, Il poeta di tutta la vita del ’57, dedicato all’amato Umberto Saba, e il saggio Sul romanzo del ‘59 nato da nove domande d’inchiesta sulle sorti d…
