Wang Y, et al. - Authors wanted to identify the risk factors for central vertigo (CV) in patients with isolated vertigo with and without hearing loss by evaluating patients who were admitted to their hospital between January 2014 and July 2016. Enrollees underwent a comprehensive physical examination with detailed medical histories, including smoking, hypertension, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and stroke history. Significant variation was disclosed in sex, age above 60, hypertension, diabetes, smoking, and stroke history between the two groups (41 cases of CV and 46 cases of peripheral vertigo). A greater risk for CV was noted among patients with three or more risk factors. A comprehensive neurological examination and a close follow-up were recommended.
