Usher Syndrome

open access: yesAudiology Research, 2022
Usher syndrome (USH) is the most common genetic condition responsible for combined loss of hearing and vision. Balance disorders and bilateral vestibular areflexia are also observed in some cases.

Evidence for a Neural Stem Cell Niche in the Postnatal Rat Vestibular Ganglion: An In Vitro Study. [PDF]

open access: yesStem Cells Int
Vestibular dysfunction significantly contributes to dizziness, balance issues, and falls, yet causal treatments are still unavailable. The vestibular ganglion (VG), the primary sensory ganglion of the vestibular nerve, is increasingly seen as a key site of vestibular degeneration.

The vestibular implant: Frequency-dependency of the electrically evoked Vestibulo-Ocular Reflex in humans

open access: yesFrontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2015
The Vestibulo-Ocular Reflex (VOR) shows frequency-dependent behavior. This study investigated whether the characteristics of the electrically evoked VOR (eVOR) elicited by a vestibular implant, showed the same frequency-dependency.Twelve vestibular ...

Saccades Matter: Reduced Need for Caloric Testing of Cochlear Implant Candidates by Joint Analysis of v-HIT Gain and Corrective Saccades

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2021
Objectives: Video head impulse test (v-HIT) is a quick, non-invasive and relatively cheap test to evaluate vestibular function compared to the caloric test.

The Vestibular Implant Input Interacts with Residual Natural Function

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2017
ObjectivePatients with bilateral vestibulopathy (BV) can still have residual “natural” function. This might interact with “artificial” vestibular implant input (VI-input). When fluctuating, it could lead to vertigo attacks.

Central Lesions With Selective Semicircular Canal Involvement Mimicking Bilateral Vestibulopathy

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2018
Bilateral vestibulopathy (BVP), which is due to peripheral lesions, may selectively involve certain semicircular canal (SCC). Recent eye movement recordings with search coil and video head impulse test (HIT) have provided insight in central lesions that ...
