In Havana syndrome patients, NIH scientists find no physical trace of harm
Quick Glance: Study Finds No Brain Injuries in 'Havana Syndrome' Patients
  • A five-year study by the National Institutes of Health revealed no brain injuries among U.S. diplomats and government employees suffering from mysterious health problems previously known as 'Havana syndrome.'

  • While the study did not provide an explanation for the symptoms, it found no significant differences in brain volume, structure, or cognitive tests between the affected individuals and healthy government workers.

  • Approximately 28% of Havana syndrome cases were diagnosed with a balance problem called 'persistent postural-perceptual dizziness,' linked to inner-ear issues and severe stress.

  • The results indicate that there is no evidence that a foreign power or external phenomenon has caused persistent or detectable pathophysiologic changes that could explain the symptoms of Havana syndrome.
