The clinical characteristics and audiogram in 103 meniere disease patients with and without vestibular migraine

Abstract

1 There was a close relationship between MD and VM. 48 MD patients(46.6%) had VM, 18 MD patients (17.5%)were probable to have VM.

2 MD patients with VM have better hearing than those without VM at 500 Hz, 1000Hz, and 2000Hz.

3 Among MD patients with VM, the mean monthly frequency of vertigo attack was 7.1,which can differ significantly from those among MD patients with probable VM and those without VM.(P<0.01).

4 The female MD patients were 7.92 times to have VM than male MD patients(95% CI, 2.97 to 21.08; P=0.001).

5 A close pathophysiologic relation remained between MD and VM; the monthly frequency of vertigo attacks could be a diagnosis indicator to screen the MD patients with or without VM.
