The extended Sniffin' Sticks procedure was used to test odor threshold, discrimination, and identification (TDI).RESULTS: Median (interquartile range) values of the composite TDI score (29 [26.5-35.5] vs 35 [34-37], p = 0.003) were reduced in patients with IIH. Furthermore, Spearman correlation revealed reduced TDI values in patients with a recent clinical deterioration of IIH (r = 0.66, p = 0.004).CONCLUSIONS: Our pilot study provides new evidence that olfaction is impaired in patients with IIH, especially in those who have been newly diagnosed or who have experienced a recent clinical deterioration.
