Immersive virtual reality as a teaching tool in neuroanatomy: A scoping review

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Basic core courses in various undergraduate programs, such as neuroanatomy, pose a challenge for students due to the large volume and complexity of the content. In this context, educational technologies such as immersive virtual reality (IVR), which allow students to actively interact with learning materials, offer a complementary pedagogical ...

Vestibular Modulation of Sympathetic Nerve Activity to Muscle and Skin in Humans

Frontiers in Neurology, 2017
We review the existence of vestibulosympathetic reflexes in humans. While several methods to activate the human vestibular apparatus have been used, galvanic vestibular stimulation (GVS) is a means of selectively modulating vestibular afferent activity ...

Minimal virtual reality‐induced symptoms and effects in anatomy education across controller types

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract With the increasing adoption of virtual reality (VR) in anatomy education, understanding VR‐induced symptoms and effects (VRISE) is pivotal to effective curriculum design. To compare self‐reported VRISE across different VR controller types, the study included 199 responses from students aged 18–54, enrolled in visceral anatomy or neuroanatomy ...

Learning beyond the lab: A gamified approach to anatomy education in a museum‐based experience

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Anatomy education, traditionally rooted in descriptive instruction and cadaveric dissection, is undergoing a significant transformation through the integration of educational technologies and contemporary pedagogical strategies. Among these, active learning methodologies, such as gamified‐based learning, have emerged as approaches designed to ...

Histamine and the mechanisms of nausea and vomiting: Translating the uncertain pharmacology of cyclizine

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Cyclizine is a long‐established, short‐acting drug, registered for preventing motion sickness, post‐operative nausea and vomiting (PONV) and ‘vomiting of known cause’. The latter is not defined but may include pregnancy and patients receiving palliative care, historically accepted without large, controlled trials.

Spatio-temporal dynamics of sound-induced vestibular processing: insights from stereo-EEG recordings

NeuroImage
Numerous functions rely on the activation of the vestibular system, resulting in widespread activation of cortical brain regions. However, although the topographical organization of vestibular processing is relatively well understood, the temporal ...

Reconsideration of the So‐Called “Someya's Sinew String”: An Anatomical Structure or a Postoperative Scar?

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The so‐called Someya's sinew string is a linear structure observed in the buccal mucosa distal to the mandibular second molar and is primarily recognized in Japanese prosthodontic practice. Although previous studies have described its prevalence and clinical importance, particularly during impression procedures for removable prostheses, its ...

Regional Histological Anatomy of the Supraperiosteal Tissues of the Oral Cavity: Implications for Periodontal Flap Surgery and Periosteal Releasing Incisions

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Periodontal and implant procedures increasingly involve tissue planes superficial to the periosteum, yet their regional anatomy remains poorly understood. This study conducted a histological investigation of the supraperiosteal anatomy of the oral cavity and its implications for periosteal releasing incisions (PRIs).

Development of a dynamic virtual reality model of the inner ear sensory system as a learning and demonstrating tool [PDF]

, 2009
In order to keep track of the position and motion of our body in space, nature has given us a fascinating and very ingenious organ, the inner ear. Each inner ear includes five biological sensors - three angular and two linear accelerometers - which ...
