ARTICLE LINKS: Fulltext PDF (97 K) Benign Essential Blepharospasm Among Residents of Olmsted County, Minnesota, 1976 to 1995: An Epidemiologic Study. Bradley, Elizabeth A. M.D. *; Hodge, David O. M.S. +; Bartley, George B. M.D. * Abstract: Purpose: To describe the incidence, patient demographics, and response to treatment of benign essential blepharospasm (BEB) in a population-based cohort. Methods: In this epidemiologic study, we searched the Rochester Epidemiology Project database for patients diagnosed with blepharospasm or related disorders between 1976 and 1995. The incident rate denominator was based on a linear interpolation of decennial census data from Olmsted County. The 95% confidence interval for the incidence rate was based on the Poisson distribution. Results: Olmsted County residents (n=295) were diagnosed with blepharospasm or related disorders between 1976 and 1995. Of these, 8 patients met the criteria for BEB. The calculated incidence rate of BEB is 1.2 persons per 100,000 population per year (95% CI, 0.37 to 2.02). At the time of BEB diagnosis, the median patient age was 61.5 years, and symptoms had been present for a median of 24 months. Four patients were men and 4 were women. Four of the 8 patients had Meige syndrome. Three of 4 patients treated with oral medications reported symptomatic improvement. Botulinum toxin injection was offered to all patients, but only 4 elected treatment. All who were treated with botulinum toxin had temporary symptomatic improvement. No patient underwent surgical treatment for BEB. Two patients had resolution of symptoms within the follow-up period.

Abstract Close Window Meige Syndrome Secondary to Basal Ganglia Injury: A Potential Cause of Acute Respiratory Distress C. Adam Kirton and Richard J. Riopelle Abstract: Background: Meige syndrome is a movement disorder that includes blepharospasm and oromandibular dystonias. Its etiology may be idiopathic (primary) or it may arise secondary to focal brain injury. Acute respiratory distress as a feature of such dystonias occurs infrequently. A review of the literature on Meige syndrome and the relationship between dystonias and respiratory compromise is presented. Methods: A 60-year-old woman suffered a cerebral anoxic event secondary to manual strangulation. She developed progressive blepharospasm combined with oromandibular and cervical dystonias. Neuroimaging demonstrated bilateral damage localized to the globus pallidus. Years later, she presented to the emergency department in intermittent respiratory distress associated with facial and cervical muscle spasms. Results: Increasing frequency and severity of the disorder was noted over years. The acute onset of respiratory involvement required intubation and eventual tracheotomy. A partial therapeutic benefit of tetrabenazine was demonstrated.

Search: HELP Pretutorial Assessment Tutorial Introduction Disturbances of Growth Anomalies of Direction Anomalies of Pigmentation Treatment References Slides Brow and Lash Abnormalities Introduction Duke-Elder's classic ophthalmology textbook classifies brow and lash abnormalities into three main categories Disturbances of growth, including hypertrichosis and hypotrichosis Anomalies of direction Anomalies of pigmentation This tutorial will discuss the major clinical entities within each of these categories. Disturbances of Growth Hypertrichosis, abnormal increase in the number (polytrichosis) or length (trichomegaly) of hairs, can affect the lashes, brows, or lanugo hair of the lids (Slide 1) . Ciliary polytrichosis is an acquired hypertrichosis in which irregularly arranged new lashes sprout as side-buds from preexisting cilia. These lashes are typically stunted, misdirected, and irregularly spaced within the normal rows of cilia. They are thought to arise in reaction to an inflammatory stimulus. The etiology of acquired hypertrichosis lanuginosa, abnormal increase in the fine lanugo hair, is unclear but the condition has been associated with serious illness, internal malignancies, and endocrine disorders. The disorder affects the lids and nose primarily, but can be generalized to the entire body. It can rarely be seen as a familial, congenital trait.

Guide to the scientific literature on potential medical uses of Cannabis and the cannabinoids David W. Pate International Hemp Assocation P.O. Box 75007, 1070AA Amsterdam The Netherlands Pate, D.W. 1995. Guide to the scientific literature on potential medical uses of Cannabis and the cannabinoids. Journal of the International Hemp Association Marijuana and its component cannabinoids have been demonstrated to affect many medical conditions. However, original sources on this topic are often difficult to access, as they are diffusely distributed across a voluminous scientific literature. This bibliography gathers most of the primary (and some of the secondary) citations available, categorized according to medical indication. Introduction Widespread reports of self-medication with Cannabis have aroused medical and scientific interest in the potential application of cannabinoids for the treatment of a variely of diseases. Some limited human trials or case studies have revealed the safety and efficacy of this class of compounds for the symptomatic treatment of a broad number of ailments. The results of tests on other animals or in vitro experiments imply new paths of clinical investigation. The references below represent a starting point for further inquiry. Included are papers regardless of their experimental outcome. Not included are citations related to the presently approved uses of THC (i.e cancer chemotherapy nausea amelioration, AIDS patient appetite stimulation). Anxiety and Psychosis

NIH Consens Statement Online 1990 Nov 12-14 [cited year month day];8(8):1-20. ABSTRACT The National Institutes of Health Consensus Development Conference on Clinical Use of Botulinum Toxin brought together neurologists, ophthalmologists, otolaryngologists, speech pathologists, and other health care professionals as well as the public to address: the mechanisms of action of botulinum toxin, the indications and contraindications for botulinum toxin treatment, the general principles of technique of injection and handling for its safe and effective use, and the short-term and long-term side effects and complications of therapy. Following 2 days of presentations by experts and discussion by the audience, a consensus panel weighed the evidence and prepared their consensus statement. Among their findings, the panel recommended that (1) botulinum toxin therapy is safe and effective for treating strabismus, blepharospasm, hemifacial spasm, adductor spasmodic dysphonia, jaw-closing oromandibular dystonia, and cervical dystonia; (2) botulinum toxin is not curative in chronic neurological disorders; (3) the safety of botulinum toxin therapy during pregnancy, breast feeding, and chronic use during childhood is unknown; (4) the long-term effects of chronic treatment with botulinum toxin remain unknown; and (5) botulinum toxin should be administered by committed interdisciplinary teams of physicians and related health care professionals with appropriate instrumentation.

Magnific's Inc. - Cell Phone Magnifying Lens Accessories - Your vision is our vision Buy it Now! Blepharospasm (Benign Essential Blepharospasm) Benign essential Blepharospasm (BEB) is a condition in which the muscles around the eyelids go into periodic blinking spasms that squeeze the lids shut. Each time a spasm occurs the lids may remain tightly closed for seconds to minutes. In the early stages, the blinking may appear to be merely a nervous twitch or a “bad habit”. Because of this, most patients have BEB for a long time before becoming aware of it. BEB usually comes on after the age of 50, is more common in women than men, and may be hereditary (though this is not been proven). Estimates of the number of affected individuals in the United States range up to about 150,000. In medical terms, “essential” means of unknown cause, “blepharo” means eyelid, and “spasm” means an involuntary, forceful contraction of muscles. Symptoms Early symptoms are winking, blinking, or squeezing together of the eyelids of one or both eyes or difficulty in keeping the eyes open. You may be especially sensitive to bright light. As the condition progresses, the spasms become more frequent until they are almost constant: both eyelids will clamp shut and the eyebrows will pull down.

@import "../../styles/advanced.css"; Skip navigation Cannabis for spasticity and multiple sclerosis Clinical bottom line There is only limited evidence mainly from anecdotal reports that cannabis (smoked or oral) benefits spasticity from multiple sclerosis or spinal cord injury. Some randomised N of 1 studies support this. The weight of evidence is not great, and more recent, though small, randomised trials show absolutely no effect, with some adverse effects. Cannabis is commonly thought to be beneficial to patients with multiple sclerosis, especially those with spasticity. There are no modern randomised double-blind trials of any size, though there is one currently ongoing, whose design and objectives can be seen on the Internet. The single largest study to investigate the efficacy of cannabis in multiple sclerosis recruited its 667th and last patient on October 10 2002. The first 15 weeks of treatment will be completed in February 2003 and results of the trial are hope to be announced in the summer of 2003. The trial It will recruit 660 patients with multiple sclerosis from across the UK who have significant spasticity in some of their leg muscles. Each patient will be randomly allocated to one of three treatments: cannabis oil, tetrahydrocannabinol (a constituent of cannabis) or placebo capsules (containing only vegetable oil).

55. Open Label Evaluation Of Cannabidiol In Dystonic Movement Disorders (Internation Snider, SR Consroe,P. Treatment of meige syndrome with cannabidiol. Neurology, 1984, 34, (Suppl 1), 147. Snider, SR Consroe, P. Beneficial and adverse http://www.thecompassionclub.org/library/movement.html

Open label evaluation of cannabidiol in dystonic movement disorders International Journal of Neuroscience , 1986, Vol. 30, pp. 277-282 By Paul Consroe, Reuven Sandyk and Stuart R. Snider Department of Pharmacology and Toxicology, and Neurology University of Arizona Medical Center, Tucson, Arizona 85721, U.S.A. Cannabidiol (CBD) a nonpsychoactive cannabinoid of Cannabis, was given to 5 patients with dystonic movement disorders in a preliminary open pilot study. Oral doses of CBD rising from 100 t 600 mg/day over a 6 week period were administered along with standard medication. Dose-related improvement in dystonia was observed in all patients and ranged from 20 to 50%. Side-effects of CBD were mild and included hypotension, dry mouth, psychomotor slowing, lightheadedness, and sedation. In 2 patients with coexisting Parkinsonian features, CBD at doses over 300 mg/day exacerbated the hypokinesia and resting tremor. CBD appears to have antidystonic and Parkinsonism-aggravating effects in humans. As early as 1842, O'Shaughnessy reported that oral Cannabis blocked tetanic convulsions and reduced muscular spasms in his patients afflicted with epilepsy, tetanus or rabies, while in 1890 Reynolds claimed that oral Cannabis was useful in the management of "choreoid and epileptoid clonic spasms." During the latter 19th century, Cannabis was commonly employed as a general antispasmodic agent, and several recent reports appear to provide some justification for this use. In 1981, Petro and Ellenberger reported that delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the major psychoactive cannabinoid of Cannabis, reduced spasticity of multiple sclerosis, and in 1983 Cliffored reported that THC reduced tremor in a few patients with the same disease. Also in 1980 Cunha et al. reported that cannabidiol (CBD), a major nonpsychoactive cannabinoid of Cannabis, prevented convulsions in epileptic patients who were largely refractory to standard antiepileptic drugs.
