Mifepristone May Halt Growth of Intracranial Tumor That Causes Hearing Loss

News: April 24, 2018

Boston, Mass. — Massachusetts Eye and Ear researchers have shown that mifepristone, a drug currently FDA-approved for chemical abortion, prevents the growth of vestibular schwannoma (also known as acoustic neuroma) cells. This sometimes-lethal intracranial tumor typically causes hearing loss and...

Pathophysiology of Dystonia

Page

Dystonia is a movement disorder of yet unknown causes and pathophysiology. It is characterized by sustained or intermittent muscle contractions causing abnormal, often repetitive, movements, postures, or both. Focal dystonias are the most common forms of dystonia and can affect different muscle...
