Slow‐Phase Nystagmus Velocity as a Risk Factor for Lateral Canal BPPV Recurrence

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This study investigated slow‐phase nystagmus velocity (SPV) at initial diagnosis as an objective vestibular predictor for the recurrence of lateral semicircular canal benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV). Binomial logistic regression analysis demonstrated that an elevated initial SPV is a novel, independent risk factor for recurrence ...

Factors Associated With Bilateral Involvement in Non‐Infectious Labyrinthitis: A Case–Control Study

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Non‐infectious labyrinthitis may progress from unilateral to bilateral inner‐ear involvement, resulting in greater functional impairment. In this retrospective case–control study of 50 patients, younger age, female sex, and the presence of systemic disease were associated with bilateral involvement. These exploratory findings may help identify patients

Three-dimensional characteristics of nystagmus induced by low frequency in semicircular canals of healthy young people

Frontiers in Neuroscience
ObjectiveThe study aimed to analyze the three-dimensional characteristics of nystagmus induced by different semicircular canal combinations in healthy young people, and to determine the reference range of nystagmus slow phase velocity (SPV) and its ...

Downbeat Nystagmus Induced by Sedation in Lasik

Case Reports in Ophthalmological Medicine, 2012
Nystagmus was elicited during lasik under sedation in two patients that were treated for depression. Nystagmus was not present before or after surgery. Nystagmus can be pharmacologically induced and can be a hazard to refractive surgery.

Spontaneous Nystagmus in the Dark in an Infantile Nystagmus Patient May Represent Negative Optokinetic Afternystagmus

Frontiers in Neurology, 2018
Abnormal projection of the optic nerves to the wrong cerebral hemisphere transforms the optokinetic system from its usual negative feedback loop to a positive feedback loop with characteristic ocular motor instabilities including directional reversal of ...

Movement Disorders in Developmental and Epileptic Encephalopathies

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Monogenic developmental and epileptic encephalopathies (DEE) frequently feature co‐occurring movement disorders. Gene discovery has expanded epilepsy‐dyskinesia syndromes (EDS) from classic associations such as stereotypies in Rett syndrome to PRRT2‐related infantile seizures with paroxysmal dyskinesia and crouched gait in SCN1A ...

Phenotypic Exploration in Patients with Heterozygous Variant in AFG3L2 Gene: A Case‐Series and Literature Review

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Variants in AFG3‐Like Matrix AAA Peptidase, Subunit 2 (AFG3L2) gene are associated with diverse clinical phenotypes. Here, we describe phenotypic findings of two unrelated children with de novo heterozygous variant and one family with inherited heterozygous variant in AFG3L2 gene.
