A Simple Gain-Based Evaluation of the Video Head Impulse Test Reliably Detects Normal Vestibulo-Ocular Reflex Indicative of Stroke in Patients With Acute Vestibular Syndrome

Frontiers in Neurology, 2021
Objective: The head impulse test (HIT) assesses the vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) and is used to differentiate vestibular neuritis (abnormal VOR) from stroke (normal VOR) in patients presenting with an acute vestibular syndrome (AVS).

Real‐World Patterns of Botulinum Toxin Treatment in Hyperkinetic Movement Disorders: A 9‐Year Nationwide Analysis in France

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Hyperkinetic movement disorders, including dystonia, tremor, and myoclonus, are disabling conditions often managed with botulinum toxin type A (BoNT‐A). Real‐world evidence on treatment patterns remains limited. Objective This nationwide, population‐based study aimed to evaluate trends in BoNT‐A use in France between 2015 and 2023 ...

Vestibulo-ocular reflex dynamics with head-impulses discriminates Usher patients type 1 and 2

Scientific Reports
Usher Syndrome classification takes into account the absence of vestibular function but its correlation with genotype is not well characterized. We intend to investigate whether video Head Impulse Test (vHIT) is useful in screening and to differentiate ...

Deployment of spatial attention without moving the eyes is boosted by oculomotor adaptation

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2015
Vertebrates developed sophisticated solutions to select environmental visual information, being capable of moving attention without moving the eyes. A large body of behavioural and neuroimaging studies indicate a tight coupling between eye movements and ...

Shift and deviate: Saccades reveal that shifts of covert attention evoked by trained spatial stimuli are obligatory

Attention, Perception, & Psychophysics, 2010
The premotor theory of attention predicts that motor movements, including manual movements and eye movements, are preceded by an obligatory shift of attention to the location of the planned response. We investigated whether the shifts of attention evoked by trained spatial cues (e.g., Dodd & Wilson, 2009) are obligatory by using an extreme prediction ...

How Culture Enables Practice: Facilitators and Barriers to the Use of Total Intravenous Anesthesia in Pediatric Anesthesia

Pediatric Anesthesia, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) in children has gained popularity due to potential advantages, including decreased respiratory adverse events, postoperative nausea and vomiting, and emergence agitation. British Columbia Children's Hospital (BCCH) has a reputation for TIVA use, training, and advocacy, including intravenous ...

Effect of a virtual walking and therapeutic exercise‐based intervention on gait and balance in people with incomplete spinal cord injury

PM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Background People with spinal cord injury (SCI) experience sensory and motor impairments that often require exercise‐based treatments. However, these interventions are challenging due to limited active mobility. Novel rehabilitation approaches, such as those targeting the mirror neuron system, could offer additional benefits.

Internal Structure, Kinematics, and Prehistory of Frozen Debris Lobe‐A (FDL‐A), Brooks Range, Alaska

Permafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Frozen Debris Lobe‐A (FDL‐A)—one of hundreds of FDLs in the Brooks Range of northern Alaska—is a slow‐moving landslide in permafrost that has been the subject of research since 2008 due to its close proximity to the Dalton Highway. Here, we synthesize more than a decade's worth of climate and surface measurements of monitored FDLs, and the ...

Intratympanic Gentamicin Versus Labyrinthectomy: Inner Ear Sensitivity to Gentamicin and Impact on the Contralateral Labyrinth [PDF]

Clinical and Experimental Otorhinolaryngology, 2019
Objectives. To investigate the impact of labyrinthectomy and intratympanic (IT) gentamicin injections on the contralateral labyrinth, we also assessed the response of each individual semicircular canal to each IT gentamicin application. Methods.

Capsicum chinense as an African traditional vegetable: Culture, resilience, and opportunity

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Capsicum chinense is central to everyday diets, cultural identity, and smallholder livelihoods across Sub‐Saharan Africa, yet remains overlooked in agricultural research and policy. This paper reframes C. chinense as a traditional, climate‐resilient vegetable shaped by centuries of farmer stewardship and cultural selection.
