Background: From November 2016 to the summer of 2021, some U.S. diplomats and their family members residing in Havana and other locations, including China, Russia, Colombia, Switzerland, and France, reported the sudden onset of auditory, vestibular, and neurological symptoms. The aim of this study is to define enrollment criteria for patients with a possible diagnosis of Havana Syndrome. Methods: This study, through a review of the scientific literature, proposes the definition of criteria for proper enrollment of patients with a possible diagnosis of "Havana Syndrome" Results: In view of the increasing number of cases, their wide geographic distribution, and the lack of certainty regarding etiopathogenesis, it is essential to propose a strategy for sharing case histories Conclusions: A correct enrollment of patients is crucial since specialists can then disclose new strategies for the study of case histories and for a clear definition of the diagnosis. This way, it will be possible to have a wide discussion of clinical and epidemiological results among specialists in different medical, engineering, and intelligence disciplines.

Introduction The VestAid is a tablet-based application that provides feedback about a patient’s eye/head movements during exercise after concussion. The goal of this case series was to determine if VestAid could be used to detect eye-gaze accuracy in a participant exposed to directed energy (DE). Materials and Methods The VestAid results of a participant with DE were compared to an age- and gender-matched healthy control, a participant post-concussion, and a participant with vestibular neuritis. A tablet with VestAid software was utilized to record eye-gaze accuracy and head speed during VORx1 exercises using eye and facial recognition as participants were exposed to 12 visual scenes. Results The participant with DE consistently had difficulty with eye-gaze accuracy when the head was rotated towards the right for all trials. The participant with DE had poor eye-gaze accuracy during all phases of the head turn cycle compared to the control participant (mean 47.91%, [SD = 7.32%] for the DE participant versus mean 94.28%, [SD = 5.87%] for the control participant). Post-exercise dizziness and perceived difficulty in the 12 exercises completed by the participant with DE were strongly related (Spearman’s rho = 0.7372, P = .0062). The participant with DE had the lowest scores on 10 of the 12 head movement trials. Conclusions VestAid provided unique information about eye-gaze accuracy that detected eye movement abnormalities in the participants with DE exposure, concussion, and vestibular neuritis. The objective metrics of eye-gaze stability correlate with participants’ symptoms and perceived difficulty of the eye/head movements.
