Visual gravitational motion and the vestibular system in humans [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Integrative Neuroscience, 2013
The visual system is poorly sensitive to arbitrary accelerations, but accurately detects the effects of gravity on a target motion. Here we review behavioral and neuroimaging data about the neural mechanisms for dealing with object motion and egomotion under gravity. The results from several experiments show that the visual estimates of a target motion

The Cognitive-Vestibular Compensation Hypothesis: How Cognitive Impairments Might Be the Cost of Coping With Compensation

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2021
Previous research in vestibular cognition has clearly demonstrated a link between the vestibular system and several cognitive and emotional functions.

Vestibular Perception following Acute Unilateral Vestibular Lesions. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Little is known about the vestibulo-perceptual (VP) system, particularly after a unilateral vestibular lesion. We investigated vestibulo-ocular (VO) and VP function in 25 patients with vestibular neuritis (VN) acutely (2 days after onset) and after ...

HSV-1 not only in human vestibular ganglia but also in the vestibular labyrinth [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Reactivation of herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) in the vestibular ganglion (VG) is the suspected cause of vestibular neuritis (VN). Recent studies reported the presence of HSV-1 DNA not only in human VGs but also in vestibular nuclei, a finding that ...

Vestibular Rehabilitation after Vestibulopathy Focusing on the Application of Virtual Reality

open access: yesJournal of Otorhinolaryngology, Hearing and Balance Medicine, 2021
Human postural control is regulated by the vestibular, somatosensory, and visual systems. These types of sensory information are integrated in the central nervous system to ascertain the body’s position in space.

Model-based Vestibular Afferent Stimulation: Modular Workflow for Analyzing Stimulation Scenarios in Patient Specific and Statistical Vestibular Anatomy

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2017
Our sense of balance and spatial orientation strongly depends on the correct functionality of our vestibular system. Vestibular dysfunction can lead to blurred vision and impaired balance and spatial orientation, causing a significant decrease in quality

Human Postural Responses to High Vestibular Specific Extremely Low-Frequency Magnetic Stimulations

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2020
Background: International agencies recognize the lack of knowledge to further establish standards and guidelines to protect the workers and the public from extremely low-frequency magnetic fields (ELF-MF).

Identification of the human cerebral cortical hemodynamic response to passive whole-body movements using near-infrared spectroscopy

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2023
The human vestibular system is crucial for motion perception, balance control, and various higher cognitive functions. Exploring how the cerebral cortex responds to vestibular signals is not only valuable for a better understanding of how the vestibular ...

Vestibular modulation of spatial perception [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Vestibular inputs make a key contribution to the own sense of spatial location. While the effects of vestibular stimulation on visuo-spatial processing in neurological patients have been extensively described, the normal contribution of vestibular ...

Human Postural Control Under High Levels of Extremely Low Frequency Magnetic Fields

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2020
Background: International agencies such as the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) and the International Committee on Electromagnetic Safety (ICES) of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) need ...
