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.

Effects of noisy galvanic vestibular stimulation on spatial memory in virtual reality

Scientific Reports
Spatial memory and navigation are foundational cognitive functions intricately tied to the hippocampal and striatal neural circuits. These regions integrate multisensory inputs from the environment, with the vestibular system exerting a particularly ...

Rapid Postmortem Temporal Bone Extraction and Dissection of Human Inner Ear Organs From Organ Donors

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
We developed a postmortem protocol for temporal bone extraction and dissection in organ donors, enabling atraumatic bilateral temporal bone retrieval within 1–2 h of ischemia, followed by stepwise microsurgical dissection of neurosensory organs. Combining rapid extraction, abbreviated decalcification, and atraumatic microsurgical dissection, this ...

Optical Stimulation and Monitoring of the Peripheral Nervous System: Perspectives and Challenges Toward Clinical Translation

Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
Optical neuromodulation with IR light allows stimulation of the PNS without the need for physical contact with the target nerve or without requiring any genetic modification. The clinical translation of this technique will pave the way to the development of neural interfaces for restoring sensory feedback in individuals with limb amputation.

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 ...

Sensorimotor processing for balance in spinocerebellar ataxia type 6. [PDF]

, 2015
We investigated whether balance impairments caused by cerebellar disease are associated with specific sensorimotor processing deficits that generalize across all sensory modalities.

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.

Why Use Immersive Virtual Reality to Assess Gait in Functional Motor Disorders?

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Functional motor disorders (FMD) are disabling conditions modulated by attentional demands. Immersive virtual reality (iVR) engages multiple attentional and sensory networks, but its application in people with FMD (PwFMD) remains limited.

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 ...
