概括
与抗素基因相关的单克隆抗体 (mAbs) 显著改善了前庭偏头痛患者的生活质量,并减少了前庭偏头痛症状. 这些向治疗为那些对传统偏头痛疗法没有反应的患者提供了一个有希望的替代方案.

- 神经学 神经学
- 眼科医生 眼科 眼科
- 耳鼻喉科 耳鼻喉科 耳鼻喉科
背景情况:
- 针对素基因相关 (CGRP) 的单克隆抗体 (mAbs) 是一种专门的偏头痛预防药物.
- 它们在前庭偏头痛 (VM) 中的使用是有限的.
- 这项研究评估了对标准治疗耐药的VM患者的抗CGRPmAbs.
研究的目的:
- 评估 erenumab,一种抗CGRP mAb,在治疗前体偏头痛 (VM) 中的疗效.
- 为了比较抗CGRP mAbs与VM患者常规偏头痛治疗的有效性.
主要方法:
- 对23名VM患者的回顾性分析,这些患者接受了 erenumab 的治疗.
- 与同一个患者在先前的常规治疗 (propranolol,flunarizine,valproic acid) 期间的结果进行比较.
- 评估结果包括Videonystagmography,头障碍库存 (DHI) 和偏头痛频率.
主要成果:
- 埃雷努马布显著改善了DHI得分 (p < 0.0001),并减少了偏头痛天数 (p = 0.001).
- 视频阴影影像显示,89%的患者在治疗后恢复正常 (p = 0.002).
- 传统治疗没有显著改善DHI或前庭功能.
结论:
- 抗CGRP mAbs有效降低头障碍,并使VM患者的前庭功能正常化.
- 这些治疗方法优于传统疗法,用于对标准护理不反应的VM患者.
- 需要在大型随机临床试验中进一步验证.

Equilibrium and Balance
4.8K
The inner ear assumes dual functionalities of auditory perception and equilibrium maintenance. The vestibule is the organ responsible for balance. This organ contains mechanoreceptors, specifically hair cells, endowed with stereocilia, which aid in deciphering information regarding the position and motion of our heads. Two intrinsic components, the utricle and saccule, help perceive head position, while the semicircular canals track head movement. Neurological messages initiated in the...

Chemotherapy-Induced Nausea and Vomiting: Neurokinin-1 Receptor Antagonists
184
Neurokinin 1 (NK1) receptors are distributed across the GI tract, vagal afferents, and key CNS regions including the central vomiting center and chemoreceptor trigger zone (CTZ) Chemotherapy agents stimulate enterochromaffin cells in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract to release large amounts of substance P (SP). SP is a neuropeptide released by specific sensory nerves in response to many different stressors, including those in the GI mucosa affected by chemotherapy. SP binds and activates...

Chemotherapy-Induced Nausea and Vomiting: 5-HT3 Receptor Antagonists
231
5-HT3 receptor antagonists, such as dolasetron, granisetron (Kytril), ondansetron (Zofran), and palonosetron (Axoli), are crucial in managing chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) and postoperative nausea. These drugs selectively block 5-HT3 receptors in the visceral vagal and spinal afferent nerves, chemoreceptor trigger zone, and the vomiting center. They have a rapid onset of action and can be given as a single dose before chemotherapy. Ondansetron and granisetron, in particular,...

Chemotherapy-Induced Nausea and Vomiting: Dopamine Receptor Antagonists
320
Dopamine receptor antagonists, also known as antipsychotic agents, are critical in managing chemotherapy-induced vomiting. These antiemetic agents block dopamine receptors in the chemoreceptor trigger zone (CTZ), inhibiting signal transmission to the vomiting center. Antipsychotic agents encompass phenothiazines (PTZ), butyrophenones, benzamides, and thienobenzodiazepines (Zyprexa), which are utilized for their antiemetic and sedative properties.

The Vestibular System
39.7K
The vestibular system is a set of inner ear structures that provide a sense of balance and spatial orientation. This system is comprised of structures within the labyrinth of the inner ear, including the cochlea and two otolith organs—the utricle and saccule. The labyrinth also contains three semicircular canals—superior, posterior, and horizontal—that are oriented on different planes.
