Epidemiology and Clinical Features of Idiopathic Trigeminal Neuralgia and Glossopharyngeal Neuralgia: Similarities and Differences, Rochester, Minnesota, 1945-1984
Abstract
A comparison of epidemiological and clinical features of trigeminal neuralgia (TN) and glossopharyngeal neuralgia (GN) in Rochester, Minn., reveals several differences. The overall age- and sex-adjusted annual incidence rates were significantly higher for TN than for GN (4.7 vs. 0.8 per 100,000 population). The TN:GN ratio was increased for both men and women and was 5.9:1 for both sexes combined. This ratio is greater than reported in previous non-population-based studies. GN is a milder disease than TN, as indicated by the number of episodes, treatment, and characterization of pain. The right side is affected more often with TN than with GN. Bilaterality was noted less often in TN than in GN cases.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
