Many of the individuals had reported hearing odd sounds or sensing pressure before suddenly developing symptoms including vertigo, loss of balance, and ear pain.But the studies, conducted at the National Institutes of Health, did not find evidence supporting that idea. Instead, it found that the brains of affected people were no different than the brains of similar people who hadn't reported symptoms.
Another problem is that the studies lumped together a broad range of people, and studied their brains at different time points after symptoms first appeared, Relman says. A focus on certain individuals, all tested soon after the event, might have produced a different result, he says.used magnetic resonance imaging to compare the brains of 81 affected individuals with the brains of 48 people in similar jobs.
