The temporal relation between the date of vertiginous attacks of Meniere's disease and the so-called Kritische Tage in the biological rhythm was observed in 57 attacks of 19 patients who had no other somatic conditions which would induce same attacks.
Three rhythms, namely physical (P), sensitivity (S) and intellectual (I) which fluctuate with different cycles of 23, 28 and 33 days, respectively were considered. Most of Meniere's attacks tended to appear just on the Kritische Tage or on days before or after it, and the tendency was significantly stronger in the P-rhythm than in the others.
Furthermore, it was demonstrated that the attacks of six patients out of the subjects always had arisen on the same day of the same cycle, that of four patients arisen on closely the same day of the same cycle and that of another four arisen on the same day of the different cycles. These must be considered in clinical practice for the prevention and the management of succeeding attacks of Meniere's disease.
