Peripheral Vestibular System Disease in Vestibular Schwannomas
Otology & Neurotology, 2015Dizziness is a common symptom in patients with vestibulo-cochlear schwannoma (VS), and several recent studies have identified this symptom as the single most important concerning the quality of life. Clinical and histological observations regarding hearing loss have suggested that this may be caused by both cochlear and retrocochlear mechanisms ...

Effect of Transdermally Administered Scopolamine on the Vestibular System in Humans
Acta Oto-Laryngologica, 1993In order to elucidate the effect of scopolamine on the vestibular system in humans, various experimentally-induced forms of nystagmus, i.e. caloric nystagmus, rotational nystagmus, optokinetic nystagmus, visual-vestibular interaction and optokinetic after nystagmus, were evaluated before and after the administration of two pieces of Scopoderm-TTS or ...

Visualization of Human Vestibular Aqueduct with Computeraided Serial Section Reconstruction System
Acta Oto-Laryngologica, 1988 The computer-aided serial section reconstruction system (SERSERS) was employed to elucidate the entire configuration of the vestibular aqueduct in the human temporal bone. The advantages and the disadvantages of this system are discussed in comparison with several conventional methods such as X-ray visualization, plastic casting and graphic ...

Tuning and sensitivity of the human vestibular system to low-frequency vibration
Neuroscience Letters, 2008Mechanoreceptive hair-cells of the vertebrate inner ear have a remarkable sensitivity to displacement, whether excited by sound, whole-body acceleration or substrate-borne vibration. In response to seismic or substrate-borne vibration, thresholds for vestibular afferent fibre activation have been reported in anamniotes (fish and frogs) in the range ...

Histopathology of the Peripheral Vestibular System after Cochlear Implantation in the Human
Otology & Neurotology, 2006The objective of this study was to describe the histology of the peripheral vestibular system in temporal bones from patients who in life had undergone cochlear implantation and to correlate the findings with previous reports of vestibular dysfunction after cochlear implantation.

Sliding Mode Control of the Human Vestibular System
Volume 1: Development and Characterization of Multifunctional Materials; Modeling, Simulation and Control of Adaptive Systems; Structural Health Monitoring, 2012An original sliding mode controller is designed, based on an existing mathematical model for response control of the human vestibular system. The human vestibular system is located in the inner ear and significantly contributes to the functions of detecting head motion, maintaining balance and posture, and realizing gaze stabilization.

Effects of temporary occlusion of a vertebral artery on the human vestibular system
Journal of Neurosurgery, 1970✓ Vestibular responses elicited by temporary occlusion of one vertebral artery were observed in 25 cases of intermittent vertebral artery compression (Power's syndrome) during surgical treatment by periarterial denervation of an isolated vertebral artery.

Human standing and walking: comparison of the effects of stimulation of the vestibular system
Experimental Brain Research, 2006The adoption of bipedalism by hominids including man has complicated the tasks of balance control and the minimisation of body sway. We have investigated the role of the vestibular organs in controlling sway in the roll direction using galvanic vestibular stimulation (GVS).

Ultrasonic Acoustic Heterodyne Transmission Into the Human Auditory and Vestibular Systems
Volume 1: Acoustics, Vibration, and Phononics, 2020Abstract It is well-known that airborne sound induces vibration of the eardrum, the coupled middle ear bones, and the inner ear. Sound transmission to the inner ear is attenuated by damage or dysfunction in the eardrum or ossicular chain.

Characteristics of Human Gait Related Variables in Association with Vestibular System Disorders
Acta Oto-Laryngologica, 1995Gait analysis was performed in patients with vestibular system disorders, using foot switches and electromyography. They were divided into three groups: 11 cases with vestibular neuronitis (VN), 10 cases with large acoustic neuroma (LAN) who had central lesion evidenced by neurotological examinations, and 10 cases with olivopontocerebellar atrophy ...
