Mild hypoxia adversely impacts human vestibular function

Scientific Reports
Hypoxia has been found to adversely affect sensory function at altitudes above 3000 m, but sensory decrements have not been reported in peer-reviewed literature at or below 2400 m nor has research focused on the impact of hypoxia on human vestibular ...

Impact of Co‐Morbid Immunocompromise in HPV‐Associated Oropharyngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Among patients with surgically resected Human Papillomavirus positive (HPV+) oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC), immunocompromised patients had significantly worse overall survival compared to the non‐compromised group; however, these exploratory findings should be interpreted cautiously.

Cisplatin vestibulotoxicity: a current review

Frontiers in Surgery
Cisplatin, a commonly used chemotherapy drug, is well-established for its ototoxic effects, primarily attributed to the damage it inflicts on cochlear hair cells. However, its impact on the vestibular system remains inadequately understood.

International survey of vestibular rehabilitation therapists by the Barany Society Ad Hoc Committee on Vestibular Rehabilitation Therapy

, 2009
The goal of this study was to determine how occupational and physical therapists learn about vestibular rehabilitation therapy, their educational backgrounds, referral patterns, and their ideas about entry-level and advanced continuing education in ...

The Musculoskeletal Consequences of Mouth Breathing in Adults: A Systematic Review

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Chronic mouth breathing can have a negative impact on posture, cause temporomandibular joint dysfunction (TMD), reduced masticatory muscle activity and efficiency, and suprahyoid muscle overuse. Postural changes include a head forward posture and increased lumbar lordosis.

Precision Medicine in Neurodegeneration with Brain Iron Accumulation (NBIA) Disorders: An Update on Emerging Treatments

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Neurodegeneration with Brain Iron Accumulation (NBIA) is a heterogeneous group of heritable, mostly recessive, progressive neurodegenerative diseases characterized by iron deposition in the basal ganglia and brainstem. There are no solid global epidemiological data on prevalence and incidence of NBIA subtypes, but registry data and ...

Spatial disorientation and countermeasure training for next-generation aircraft: a review and recommendations

Frontiers in Physiology
Spatial disorientation (SD) is the most common cause of human error in military aircraft incident reports over the last few decades. Vestibular SD typically occurs when the vestibular (balance) system cannot distinguish between acceleration from gravity ...

A Phase 1 Study of Convection‐Enhanced Delivery of Intraputaminal AAV2‐GDNF in Advanced Parkinson's Disease

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder. Neurotrophic therapeutic approaches have been limited in part by incomplete delivery to the putamen. We developed image‐guided convection‐enhanced delivery with real‐time monitoring to improve intraputaminal distribution of neurotrophic gene therapy. Objectives To

DNA Repair Pathway Variants Are Enriched in Individuals with Biallelic AAGGG CANVAS and RFC1‐Related Disease

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Cerebellar ataxia, neuropathy and vestibular are flexia syndrome (CANVAS) and RFC1‐related disease are most commonly caused by biallelic AAGGG repeat expansions in RFC1. The high population frequency of this expansion compared to the frequency of CANVAS suggests incomplete penetrance.
