Adaptation to Steady-State Electrical Stimulation of the Vestibular System in Humans

open access: yesAnnals of Otology, Rhinology & Laryngology, 2011
Objectives: Efforts are being made toward the development of a vestibular implant. If such a device is to mimic the physiology of the vestibular system, it must first be capable of restoring a baseline or “rest” activity in the vestibular pathways and then modulating it according to the direction and velocity of

Vestibular modulation of the tail of the rat striatum

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Fragmented and piecemeal evidence from animal and human studies suggests that vestibular information is transmitted to the striatum, a part of the basal ganglia that degenerates in Parkinson’s Disease.

Vestibular and Multi-Sensory Influences Upon Self-Motion Perception and the Consequences for Human Behavior

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2019
In this manuscript, we comprehensively review both the human and animal literature regarding vestibular and multi-sensory contributions to self-motion perception.

Sensing Movement: Microsensors for Body Motion Measurement

open access: yesSensors, 2011
Recognition of body posture and motion is an important physiological function that can keep the body in balance. Man-made motion sensors have also been widely applied for a broad array of biomedical applications including diagnosis of balance disorders ...

The contribution of visual and vestibular information to spatial orientation by 6- to 14-month-old infants and adults [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Although there is much research on infants' ability to orient in space, little is known regarding the information they use to do so. This research uses a rotating room to evaluate the relative contribution of visual and vestibular information to location

Task, muscle and frequency dependent vestibular control of posture

open access: yesFrontiers in Integrative Neuroscience, 2015
The vestibular system is crucial for postural control; however there are considerable differences in the task dependence and frequency response of vestibular reflexes in appendicular and axial muscles.

Vestibular Organ and Cochlear Implantation–A Synchrotron and Micro-CT Study

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2021
Background: Reports vary on the incidence of vestibular dysfunction and dizziness in patients following cochlear implantation (CI). Disequilibrium may be caused by surgery at the cochlear base, leading to functional disturbances of the vestibular ...

Improvement of a figure copying deficit during sub-sensory galvanic vestibular stimulation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We describe the effects of galvanic vestibular stimulation (GVS) on an individual who, following right hemisphere stroke, is unable to copy figures accurately.

Vestibular-Evoked Cerebral Potentials

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2021
The human vestibular cortex has mostly been approached using functional magnetic resonance imaging and positron emission tomography combined with artificial stimulation of the vestibular receptors or nerve.

Galvanic Vestibular Stimulation Modulates the Electrophysiological Response During Face Processing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Although galvanic vestibular stimulation (GVS) is known to affect the speed and accuracy of visual judgments, the underlying electrophysiological response has not been explored.
