Numerous studies show that the diagnosis of vascular vertigo remains inadequate, often leading to overdiagnosis of stroke and transient ischemic attacks in patients with peripheral vestibular disorders and vestibular migraine, on the one hand, and underestimation of the importance of cerebrovascular pathology, especially in patients with the first attack of persistent vestibular vertigo, on the other.The International Barany Society has developed and published diagnostic criteria for vascular vertigo. These criteria are intended to facilitate the identification of vascular causes of acute vestibular syndrome. Particular emphasis is placed on clinical signs because imaging techniques often do not allow detection of foci small in volume and area, especially in cases when stroke is manifested by an isolated vestibular syndrome. Key clinical signs to analyze when a vascular etiology of acute vestibular syndrome is suspected include nystagmus, corrective saccades on the Halmagyi test, smooth visual pursuit, visual saccades, severity of trunk ataxia, and hearing loss.","PeriodicalId":19252,"journal":{"name":"Neurology, neuropsychiatry, Psychosomatics","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87374598","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study aimed to analyze the relationship between work factors in the form of type of faculty, workload, type of professor, and interpersonal relationships with the work stress of lecturers.Material and methods. This research was conducted using a cross-sectional study. The research sample consisted of 100 lecturers with active status selected by quota sampling. Data were collected using a questionnaire filled out online and analyzed using the Chi-square test and the Contingency Coefficient Test.Results. The result showed that most participants had moderate stress (score: 59–92) and moderate workload (score: 50–80). Most of the participants were Associate professors (52%) and had good interpersonal relationships in the workplace (59%). There is a relationship between interpersonal relationships and work stress of lecturers. However, there was no relationship between type of faculty, workload, and type of professor with lecturers' work stress.Conclusion. In conclusion, interpersonal relationships are significantly related to job stress on lecturers. A good interpersonal relationship will reduce the possibility of work stress on the participant.","PeriodicalId":19252,"journal":{"name":"Neurology, neuropsychiatry, Psychosomatics","volume":"21 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74043907","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Screening studies were conducted on representative samples of the population aged 25–64 years: in 2013–2016. (V screening: 427 men, mean age 34±0.4 years, response rate 71%; 548 women, mean age 35±0.4 years, response rate 72%); in 2015–2018 (VI screening: 275 men, mean age – 49±0.4 years, response rate – 72%; 390 women, mean age – 45±0.4 years, response rate – 75%) (budget topic No. АААА-А17-117112850280-2) using the protocol of the WHO international program “MONICA-psychosocial”. The Jenkins questionnaire was used in the population survey to investigate sleep disorders. To examine personal anxiety, a form of the Spielberger Self-Assessment Scale was used; to determine depression, life exhaustion, and hostility, the MOPSY-test was used; and to examine social support, the Berkman-Syme test was used.Results. In the open population aged 25 to 64 years, sleep disorders were found in 47.6% of men and 51.2% of women. Among those with sleep disorders, we found high levels of: anxiety (HLA) in 61.8% of men (χ2=56.169; df=4; p<0.001) and 68.1% of women (χ2=36.535; df=4; p<0.001); depression (HLD) – in 18.2% of men (χ2=26.609; df=4; p<0.001) and 20% of women (χ2=41.041; df=4; p<0.001); vital exhaustion (VE) – in 63.6% of men (χ2=93.378; df=4; p<0.001) and 59.3% of women (χ2=124.115; df=4; p<0.001); hostility (HLH) – in 52.7% of men (χ2=17.598; df=4; p<0.001) and 39.3% of women (χ2=13.139; df=4; p<0.01).We found no statistically significant differences between groups of men and women, who differed in sleep self-essessment and indicators of the index of close contacts and the index of social ties.Sleep disturbances increased the likelihood of developing of VE (OR 2.301; 95% СI 1.774–2.984; p<0.0001), HLA (OR 1.882; 95% CI 1.199–2.955; p<0.006), depression (OR 1.423; 95% CI 1.099–1.842; p<0.007).

The earliest manifestations of the disease include symptoms such as parasomnia, constipation, hyposmia, anxiety-depressive disorder, daytime sleepiness, color perception changes, cognitive dysfunction, and mild motor manifestations. The diagnosis of PD can be made when characteristic motor manifestations occur: hypokinesia, rest tremor, muscle rigidity. Substantia nigra ultrasound, magnetic resonance imaging in SWI mode, and functional neuroimaging methods are used as confirmatory methods. The approach to the treatment of early stages of PD is age dependent. Patients over 70 years of age are recommended to start therapy with levodopa; younger patients – with dopamine receptor agonists (ADR), amantadines, MAO-B inhibitors. The mechanisms of ADR action, the possibility of their influence on the motor and non-motor symptoms of PD are analyzed. A special place is given to piribedil, which, due to the dual mechanism of action, has a positive effect on cognitive functions, depression, apathy, as well as a minimal effect on daytime sleepiness.","PeriodicalId":19252,"journal":{"name":"Neurology, neuropsychiatry, Psychosomatics","volume":"3 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78923558","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Twin studies could be helpful in making decisive conclusion on the relative role of genetics and environment on GD. Therefore, we hereby present a case of monozygotic twins with concordant female-to-male GD. Seventeen-year-old twins are introduced in this case report. The second pair attended to our clinic for psychiatric evaluation. She was suffering from GD by overwhelmed desire for having masculine features, wearing their cloths, and at the same time revolting being a girl. Although she preferred spending time with male friends, she was sexually attracted to females. Although the first pair had similar characteristics of GD, she presented apposite temperament. While temperament has been considered to be genetically inherited, the incidence of GD in our cases with different temperaments raises the question about genetic role in inheriting temperament and GD. Further twin studies will help understanding the extent of genetic influence on these features.","PeriodicalId":19252,"journal":{"name":"Neurology, neuropsychiatry, Psychosomatics","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81776142","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Tenoten is a well-studied daytime anxiolytic that combines a favorable safety profile with high anxiolytic activity. The efficacy of Tenoten in the treatment of anxiety disorders is comparable to that of benzodiazepine drugs. Tenoten has no inhibitory and muscle relaxant effects, does not cause drug tolerance, addiction, \"withdrawal\" syndrome, as well as drug interactions.

The study design was a multicentre, open-label, non-comparative clinical trial (CT) with two doses of alimemazine 20 and 40 mg (Teraligen® retard, prolonged-release film-coated tablets). 129 patients diagnosed with GAD (criteria according to the ICD-10 classification), 86 women and 43 men were included, mean age 38.0±11.1 years. The level of anxiety, assessed by the Hamilton HARS scale, at Week 0 (Visit 1) was 24.8±7.3 points.Results. By Week 6, the level of anxiety statistically significantly decreased to a mean score of 10.8±6.6, while the dynamics of the mean score relative to baseline was -14.0±6.27 (p<0.0001). The proportion of patients with a decrease in the total score on the HARS scale by 50% or more compared with the initial value was: after 1 week of therapy – 10.3% (n=13); after 3 weeks of therapy – 60.5% (n=75; compared to baseline, p<0.0001); after 6 weeks of therapy – 69.4% (n=86; compared to baseline, p<0.0001). The therapy was well tolerated, among the adverse events (AEs) patients noted: morning sleepiness (7.8%; n=10); dry mouth (7.8%; n=10); general weakness (4.7%; n=6). Other AEs (dizziness, headache, impaired concentration, muscle weakness, memory impairment, tinnitus, tachycardia) were much less common. From the side of the liver, no AEs were detected, including changes in the activity of liver enzymes.Conclusion. Prolonged release alimemazine tablets 20 mg and 40 mg for six weeks resulted in a statistically significant reduction in anxiety levels, with at least two-thirds of patients experiencing more than half their anxiety. The effect increases with each week as you continue to take the drug. The prolonged release form of alimemazine is well tolerated, the treatment of GAD with the drug is effective and safe and may represent a rational alternative to antidepressant therapy.","PeriodicalId":19252,"journal":{"name":"Neurology, neuropsychiatry, Psychosomatics","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77144668","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
