Objectives

Narrative objectives1

Proposal for a diagnostic method to detect abnormal internal carotid artery changes associated with aging early on, based on pharyngeal dysesthesia symptoms, thereby preventing cerebral infarction. This proposal will enhance the diagnostic accuracy of pharyngeal dysesthesia-the sole symptom reported by patients with abnormal internal carotid artery course variations-promoting understanding of the disease concept. This will not only advance public health and longevity in Japan's aging society but also significantly reduce healthcare costs by suppressing cerebral infarction incidence.

Other

Other related information

Confirm the presence or absence of abnormal displacement of the internal carotid artery (Ab-ICA) during otolaryngological laryngopharyngeal examination in the seated position.
Only cases with Ab-ICA identified during the screening examination after registration will undergo an observational study with a 6-month observation period following case registration.
For cases without Ab-ICA, observation ends upon confirmation of the final diagnosis. The principal investigator at each facility will verify the diagnosis, record it on the case registration form, and complete registration.
