Description |
Hearing loss is often thought of as an inner ear ('peripheral') symptom, but SHL can be an initial manifestation of posterior circulation stroke ('central'), especially when co-occurring with vertigo. To date, no large-scale study has compared stroke risk across the following populations: (1) 'sudden hearing loss (SHL) alone;' (2) 'vertigo alone;' and (3) 'SHL with vertigo.' Here we compare long-term stroke risk among these patients using a large national healthcare database. |
