<strong>Fluids</strong> <strong>Hypertension</strong> <strong>Syndromes</strong> – Dr. Leonardo Izecksohn – page 209<br />

13 - Pituitary hormonal disturbs and Hypothyroidism: The Cerebrospinal Fluid <strong>Hypertension</strong><br />

stretching the Pituitary gland disturbs the secretion of its hormones, and consequently disturbs the<br />

function of the many glands under its control, including the Thyroid. So, the hypothyroidism can be<br />

caused by the Cerebrospinal Fluid <strong>Hypertension</strong>. The same pathophysiology can cause the galactorrhea-amenorrhea,<br />

and other hormonal disturbs.<br />

We suppose that the Cerebrospinal Fluid´s hypertension causes three successive Pituitary disturbs:<br />

a- The acute Pituitary squeezing is caused by an acute Cerebrospinal Fluid pressure rise, releasing excessive<br />

antidiuretic hormone in the blood, which retains water in the body and acutely rise more the<br />

Cerebrospinal fluid pressure. This vicious cicle causes migraines.<br />

b- The chronic Pituitary squeeze disturbs many glands functions.<br />

c- The complete squeezing of the Pituitary gland, herniating the Cerebrospinal Fluid into the Sella<br />

Turcica, results in the “Empty Sella Turcica Syndrome”.<br />

14 - Premenstrual syndrome: It is consequent to the Cerebrospinal Fluid <strong>Hypertension</strong> stretching all<br />

the nerves and the brain. It is caused by the sum of all the etiologies, added with the water retention in<br />

the skull and in the entire body caused by the premenstrual peak and physiologic withdrawal of the hormone<br />

Estrogen. Whether the patient shortens the water, and stops the beer, wine, caffeine an theobromine<br />

drinks, the isolated effect of the Estrogens is reduced, and the patient relieves or gets free from<br />

the premenstrual syndrome. This already was discovered by others at the years 1989 and 1990:<br />

In the People's Republic of China, “studying 188 nursing students and tea factory workers... data revealed<br />

that tea consumption is strongly related to the prevalence of premenstrual syndrome and that<br />

the effects are dose-dependent.” (Rossignol A M, and others).<br />

Rossignol A M K and Bonnlander H, studying 841 women between 18 and 22 year-old, found that<br />

“there was evidence of an association between caffeine consumption and Premenstrual Syndrome.<br />

Among women with more severe symptoms, the relationship between consumption of caffeine-containing<br />

beverages and Premenstrual Syndrome was dose-dependent. The prevalence odds ratios were<br />

equal to 1.3 for consumers of one cup of a caffeine-containing beverage per day and increased steadily<br />

to 7.0 for consumers of 8- 10 cups per day. There was no significant difference based on caffeine<br />

source.” They also found that the “daily total fluid consumption was related to Premenstrual Syndrome<br />

among heavy consumers”.<br />

15 - Transient global amnesia: It has been related with cranial arterial and vein thrombosis. It can be<br />

secondary to the Cerebrospinal fluid's hypertension and respective migraines. The presence of Jugular<br />

vein valve incompetence added with a Valsalva maneuver can cause it.<br />

“We investigated 6 patients diagnosed with transient global amnesia ... using single fiber electromyography.”<br />

“Transient global amnesia shares the same type of subclinical abnormality of neuromuscular<br />

transmission observed in migraine patients.”(Ertas M, and others).<br />

16 - White matter abnormalities: “We found increased cortical thickness of motion-processing visual<br />

areas MT+ and V3A in migraineurs compared to healthy controls…accompanied by abnormalities of<br />

the subjacent white matter. Migraineurs have alterations in superior colliculus and the lateral geniculate<br />

nucleus, which are also involved in visual processing.” (Granziera C, and others).<br />

17 - White matter damage: It was described an association between large retinal vein diameter inside<br />

the eye and progression of brain’s white matter damage (Ikram MK, and others).<br />

The chronic Cerebrospinal Fluid <strong>Hypertension</strong> squeezes the Central Retinal Vein inside the Optic<br />

Nerve and causes the retinal vein diameter engorgement inside the eye, as explained above at 2 nd . cranial<br />

nerve - Squeezing the central Retinal Vein in the Optic Nerve. Therefore, the Cerebrospinal<br />

Fluid <strong>Hypertension</strong> can be the cause of the brain’s white matter damage.
