We reproduced, in part, the hemodynamic and biochemical manifestations of this presentation with Valsalva maneuver in healthy subjects. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Goiter

  One hundred patients (age range, 24-76 years) with multinodular goiter, recurrent multinodular goiter, toxic diffuse multinodular goiter, or papillary thyroid cancer were included in the study and were divided into 2 groups of 50 randomly. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Hypesthesia

  After 1 year of follow-ups, he still experienced a mild weakness and hypesthesia of the right leg but no further episodes of priapism or sexual dysfunction. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Sexual Dysfunction

  After 1 year of follow-ups, he still experienced a mild weakness and hypesthesia of the right leg but no further episodes of priapism or sexual dysfunction. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Esophageal Motility Disorder

  Lethal cardiac arrhythmias should be considered when sudden deaths occur in individuals with esophageal motility disorders, as well as in other situations where the Valsalva maneuver may have been used, and where no other anatomic cause of death is identified [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Ventricular Hypertrophy

  We report a case of pheochromocytoma with echocardiographic demonstration of markedly increased mitral regurgitation during the Valsalva maneuver in a patient with left ventricular hypertrophy and a dynamic outflow tract obstruction. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

The Valsalva maneuver is used in clinical medicine for the diagnosis and/or treatment of various cardiovascular conditions. It can also be used in activities of daily living, such as defecation. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Synchronized cardioversion is usually the treatment of choice in the hemodynamically unstable patient. [acepnow.com]

Myelopathy-related priapism potentiated by the Valsalva maneuver can be easily overlooked without heightened vigilance, leading to poor therapeutic response and prognosis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Prognosis. Abstract Introduction and objectives. In patients with systolic dysfunction, different ventricular filling patterns are associated with different prognoses. [revespcardiol.org]

Age Persons of any age can be affected. [7] Prognosis Prognosis is generally good, as complete recovery of vision (with observation) usually occurs within weeks to months following onset. [emedicine.com]

Complications associated with laser membranotomy include macular hole, retinal detachment, and epiretinal membrane formation. [7] [8] Prognosis Good prognosis with complete recovery to baseline vision after resolution occurring within weeks to months [eyewiki.aao.org]

The disorder is enigmatic yet devastating because of its elusive etiology, irreversible erectile tissue damage, and resultant erectile dysfunction. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

ORIGINAL COMMUNICATION First Online: 07 July 2005 Abstract Objective While transient global amnesia (TGA) is a clinically well defined disorder, its etiology is poorly understood. [doi.org]

Etiology It occurs after an increase in intrathoracic or intraabdominal pressure due to activities such as coughing, vomiting, lifting, straining for a bowel movement, strenuous exertion, sexual intercourse, labor, blowing musical instruments and compression [eyewiki.aao.org]

Ventricular dysfunction was due to an ischemic etiology in the majority of cases (26), 6 patients had dilated cardiomyopathy and 5 had other conditions (alcoholic or hypertensive heart disease). [revespcardiol.org]

You see, like most things in the human body, the response to the Valsalva maneuver is nuanced and extraordinarily complex. ( Editor's note: while all the details behind the Valsalva’s physiology and related epidemiology is beyond the scope of this article [floelite.com]

Epidemiology Frequency The frequency of Valsalva retinopathy is difficult to ascertain considering the rare nature of the condition. United States The incidence of Valsalva retinopathy in the United States has not been reported. [emedicine.com]
