Intracranial pressure directly predicts headache morbidity in idiopathic intracranial hypertension
This research focus is on what was learnt regarding headaches in people with IIH from the IIHWT clinical trial. Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension and cognitive changes
This summary is to explain new research in IIH. This research focus is on cognition which is the ability to perceive and react, process and understand, store and retrieve information, make decisions and produce appropriate responses.New research published reports eye scans can help in Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension
A recent article was published in an American medical journal called JAMA Ophthalmology. It was called "Using Optical Coherence Tomography Measures as Surrogates for Raised Intracranial Pressure in Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension”. The research was done through Professor Alex Sinclair and the IIH research network in the United Kingdom.
