Novel Clinical Insights From a Swedish RFC1 Spectrum Disorder Cohort
In this study, we clinically characterized a Swedish cohort with biallelic RFC1 expansions by retrospectively enrolling 30 patients from a tertiary center and analyzing their clinical, genetic, and detailed phenotypic features. Our results suggest a Swedish founder effect in the Norrbotten region and indicate that RFC1‐spectrum disorder should be ...

A pilot study to investigate the effects of test position and stimulus type on vestibular evoked myogenic potentials [PDF]
Vestibular evoked myogenic potentials (VEMPs) are a non-invasive test of otolith function and a portion of the descending vestibulo-spinal system. Three subjects with normal function of the vestibular system underwent VEMP testing with 500 Hz tone ...

Vestibular deficits in neurodegenerative disorders: balance, dizziness, and spatial disorientation [PDF]
The vestibular system consists of the peripheral vestibular organs in the inner ear and the associated extensive central nervous system projections—from the cerebellum and brainstem to the thalamic relays to cortical projections. This system is important

Persistent postural‐perceptual dizziness versus vestibular migraine: A narrative review
Abstract Objective This article reviews the differences and similarities between persistent postural‐perceptual dizziness (PPPD) and vestibular migraine. Background PPPD is considered a chronic functional vestibular disorder characterized by persistent dizziness, unsteadiness, nonspinning vertigo, and often exacerbated by upright posture, movement, or ...

Vestibulo-Oculomotor Reflex Recording Using the Scleral Search Coil Technique. Review of Peripheral Vestibular Disorders [PDF]
Our goal is to review vestibulo-oculomotor reflex (VOR) studies on several peripheral vestibular disorders (Ménière’s disease, vestibular neuritis, benign paroxysmal positional vertigo, superior canal dehiscence syndrome, and vestibular neuroma), using ...

Physiology, clinical evidence and diagnostic relevance of sound-induced and vibration-induced vestibular stimulation [PDF]
Purpose of review: To examine the recent literature concerning the neural basis and clinical evidence for the response of the labyrinth to sound and vibration: vestibular-evoked myogenic potentials (VEMPs) and vibration-induced nystagmus (VIN).

Ageing Effect on Air-Conducted Ocular Vestibular Evoked Myogenic Potential
One of the recent diagnostic tests to assess the function of otolithic organs is through vestibular evoked myogenic potential (VEMP) testing. There are equivocal findings on effect of aging on ocular VEMP (oVEMP) parameters with reference to latencies. Hence this study was taken up to investigate the age related changes in oVEMP parameters.

Visual and vestibular reweighting after cyber‐ and space‐sickness
Abstract Sensory conflicts are widely recognized as the primary drivers of motion sickness (MS), though the underlying integrative processes remain poorly understood. This study investigated sensory reweighting following exposure to two different sensory conflict paradigms. Visual and vestibular reflexes were assessed before and after sensory conflict.
