How did Ancient Egyptians treat an earache? The Berlin Papyrus (~1350 BC) suggested applying an ointment of Labdanum (a plant resin). Modern studies demonstrate Labdanum has antimicrobial properties, suggesting it may have been effective for otitis externa #histmed #otohistory

In 1939 for intractable Ménière's Dr Mollison would open the horizontal semicircular canal and inject alcohol to destroy balance function and stop vertigo attacks. Destructive procedures are still occasionally used today for Ménières Disease #HistoryInMénièresDisease #histmed

In the 1950s tinnitus was occasionally treated with frontal lobotomy. Ménière's was the most common cause of tinnitus in a cohort of 20 patients: 1 died, 8 reported improvement, and 11 reported tinnitus was the same, but bothered them less #histmed #HistoryInMénièresDisease

Understanding why is complicated. The solution is simple: enter the 7T MRI slowly. 🐌 🧲

This looks amazing. I wish I was still doing behavioral studies. Likely coming to a student science fair in the future. :)

Should medical students be prohibited from using generative AI for residency applications? We don't think so. Perspective with Jenny X Chen, MD EdM Sarah N Bowe MD EdM in JGME #MedEd: doi.org/10.4300/JGME-D…

I enjoyed just stumbling across Sam Rosen's setup for Stapes mobilization (1953, New York State Journal of Medicine). Thanks, Internet Archive!

These are the three smallest bones in the human body: malleus, incus, and stapesare They are located in the middle ear. At 3 x 5 mm in size, the stapes is the smallest bone in the human body. All three bones are essential for hearing.

This crossover, double-blinded, placebo-controlled RCT out of MUSC Department of Otolaryngology - HNS assessed the efficacy of the SNRI venlafaxine in 40 patients with Ménière’s disease. There was no difference in number of episodes and QOL outcomes between groups. JAMA Otolaryngology – Head & Neck Surgery jamanetwork.com/journals/jamao…

Circling is observed in many mouse vestibular disorder models but is often left unquantified. Our paper, led by Oliver Stanley @oliwhail, introduces a tool leveraging DeepLabCut 🦄 to automatically identify circling and facilitate behavioral quantification. nature.com/articles/s4159…
