    The effect of migraine and motion sickness on symptoms evoked by the caloric vestibular test
    (IOS PRESS, 2022-01-01) Gedik-Soyuyuce, Ozlem; Yalinay-Dikmen, Pinar; Korkut, Nazim
    BACKGROUND: The caloric vestibular test (CVT) may evoke headache and vestibular symptoms in susceptible people. Patients with migraines have higher susceptibility to motion sickness. In migraines, impaired habituation to repetitive stimuli is a well-known interictal abnormality. OBJECTIVE: This study is aimed at evaluating CVT-evoked headache, nausea, vomiting, and imbalance in patients with and without migraine and/or motion sickness. METHODS: A retrospective data analysis was performed on 554 patients with a complaint of dizziness who underwent bithermal CVT at a tertiary referral center. The occurrences of CVT-evoked headache, nausea, vomiting, and imbalance were observed in four groups: patients with only migraine (MG

    Diagnosis and Treatment in Vestibular Migraine
    (TURKISH NEUROLOGICAL SOC, 2020-01-01) Dikmen, Pinar Yalinay
    Vestibular migraine (VM) is the most common cause of recurrent spontaneous vertigo. Inclusion of the diagnostic criteria for VM in the last edition of the International Classification of Headache Disorders published in 2013 promoted the establishment of unity in terminology as well as increasing awareness about VM. The diagnosis of VM is based on clinical history. In studies related to VM, it has been shown that headache and vertigo may not always occur simultaneously, and vertigo may present in different patterns in individual attacks of patients. This variation creates difficulty in the diagnosis of VM. Therefore, the presence of headache should always be questioned in young and middle-aged patients who present with vertigo. Headache that was present previously may have disappeared years ago, hence a detailed patient history is the most essential tool in the diagnosis of VM. There may be some findings showing central and peripheral vestibular involvement in the neurotologic examination during ictal and interictal periods. However, there is no pathognomonic laboratory test
