Electrical vestibular stimuli evoke robust muscle activity in deep and superficial neck muscles in humans [PDF]
Neck muscle activity evoked by vestibular stimuli is a clinical measure for evaluating the function of the vestibular apparatus. Cervical vestibular-evoked myogenic potentials (cVEMP) are most commonly measured in the sternocleidomastoid muscle (and more

Changes in Vestibular Function in Patients With Head-and-Neck Cancer Undergoing Chemoradiation
Introduction: While the cochleotoxicity of cisplatin has been well investigated, less is known about the effects of platinum-based chemotherapy on the vestibular system.

Abnormal Visuo-vestibular Interactions in Vestibular Migraine: a Cross Sectional Study [PDF]
Vestibular migraine is amongst the commonest causes of episodic vertigo. Chronically, patients with vestibular migraine develop abnormal responsiveness to both vestibular and visual stimuli characterised by heightened self-motion sensitivity and visually-

Introduction: The vestibular evoked myogenic potential is a potential of mean latency that measures the muscle response to auditory stimulation. This potential can be generated from the contraction of the sternocleidomastoid muscle and also from the ...

Influence of the Electrode Montage to Detect Ocular Vestibular Evoked Myogenic Potentials
Objective To compare ocular vestibular evoked myogenic potentials (oVEMPs) obtained with three different electrode montages (infra-orbital vs belly-tendon vs chin) in a group of healthy subjects. To assess the electrical activity recorded at the level of the reference electrode in the belly-tendon and chin montages.

Diagnosing Myasthenia Gravis With Repetitive Ocular Vestibular Evoked Myogenic Potentials [PDF]
Timely and accurate diagnosis of myasthenia gravis, particularly in patients with fluctuating, isolated ocular involvement, remains challenging. Serological antibody testing and repetitive nerve stimulation of peripheral muscles usually have low sensitivity in these patients.

Episodic vestibular symptoms in children with a congenital cytomegalovirus infection [PDF]
Objective: Congenital cytomegalovirus (cCMV) infection is the most common non-genetic cause of sensorineural hearing loss in children. Although cCMV-induced vestibular loss is demonstrated in several studies, the occurrence of vertigo has been described ...

The effect of alcohol on cervical and ocular vestibular evoked myogenic potentials in healthy volunteers [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: We investigated the effect of alcohol on the cervical and ocular vestibular evoked myogenic potentials (cVEMPs and oVEMPs). As alcohol produces gaze-evoked nystagmus (GEN), we also tested the effect of nystagmus independent of alcohol by ...

Association between hearing loss and vestibular disorders : a review of the interference of hearing in the balance [PDF]
Dizziness is very prevalent and makes a great impact on people’s life. Because of anatomical and functional similarities of hearing and vestibular systems, it is noted that there is a big relation between hearing loss and vestibular disorders.
