Investigation of Third Window Symptoms in Patients With Enlarged Vestibular Aqueduct: A Pilot Study
Abstract Objective To assess if patients with enlarged vestibular aqueduct (EVA) experience symptoms characteristic of other third mobile window disorders such as superior semicircular canal dehiscence syndrome (SCDS). Study design Cross‐sectional study. Setting Tertiary care center. Methods Adult and pediatric patients with EVA were screened. Patients

Bilateral Vestibular Hypofunction in Dialyzed Patients with Chronic Renal Failure
There are fewer reports on vestibular function in patients with renal failure than on impaired hearing. Grahe reported in 1924 that 13 to 32 patients with nephritis had either spontaneous nystagmus or abnormalities on the past pointing test. According to a recent study by Yassin (1970), vertigo was noted in 37% of 114 patients with renal failure, and ...

Inertial Measurement Unit-Based Romberg Test for Assessing Adults With Vestibular Hypofunction
This work aims to explore the utility of wearable inertial measurement units (IMUs) for quantifying movement in Romberg tests and investigate the extent of movement in adults with vestibular hypofunction (VH).

Abstract Background and Purpose The dorsolateral portion of the caudal pons contains the vestibular nucleus (VN) and inferior cerebellar peduncle (ICP) that play important roles in conveying and processing vestibular and ocular motor signals. This study aimed to characterize ocular motor abnormalities along with their anatomical correlations in ...

Objectives Spinocerebellar ataxia 27B due to GAA repeat expansions in the fibroblast growth factor 14 (FGF14) gene has recently been recognized as a common cause of late‐onset hereditary cerebellar ataxia. Here we present the first report of this disease in the US population, characterizing its clinical manifestations, disease progression, pathological

Hierarchical Cluster Analysis of Semicircular Canal and Otolith Deficits in Bilateral Vestibulopathy
BackgroundGait imbalance and oscillopsia are frequent complaints of bilateral vestibular loss (BLV). Video-head-impulse testing (vHIT) of all six semicircular canals (SCCs) has demonstrated varying involvement of the different canals. Sparing of anterior-

Video head impulse gain is impaired in myotonic dystrophy types 1 and 2
Abstract Background and Purpose This study was undertaken to examine vestibulo‐ocular reflex (VOR) characteristics in myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) and type 2 (DM2) using video head impulse testing (vHIT). Methods VOR gain, refixation saccade prevalence, first saccade amplitude, onset latency, peak velocity, and duration were compared in DM1, DM2 ...

Abstract OBJECTIVE: To explore clinical features of patients with bilateral vestibular hypofunction (BVH) verified in motorized head impulse test (MHIT). MATERIALS and METHODS: We examined clinical records of 23 adult patients (10 males and 13 females), whose gain of the vestibulo-ocular reflex in the MHIT was bilaterally lowered.

Bilateral Vestibulopathy: Vestibular Function, Dynamic Visual Acuity and Functional Impact
Introduction: Patients suffering from bilateral vestibular hypofunction (BVH) often experience ataxia as well as visual instability. Even though progress has been made in vestibular testing, insights regarding vestibular deficit in BVH remain incomplete ...
