Visual modulation of vestibular‐evoked balance response disturbed by posterior cortical atrophy
Abstract figure legend Summary of key findings. (A) Effect of vision on balance responses to vestibular stimulation in controls. Mean galvanic vestibular stimulation (GVS)‐evoked response time‐course is shown without and with vision, illustrating how visual input ‘dampens’ the balance response.

Objective Impaired ability to induce stepping after incomplete spinal cord injury (SCI) can limit the efficacy of locomotor training, often leaving patients wheelchair‐bound. The cuneiform nucleus (CNF), a key mesencephalic locomotor control center, modulates the activity of spinal locomotor centers via the reticulospinal tract.

Bilateral Vestibulopathy: What Can the Video Head Impulse Test Tell Us?
Bilateral vestibulopathy (BV) is a known cause of chronic vestibular syndrome. With the video head impulse test (VHIT), we can now evaluate all six semicircular canals independently and establish BV subgroups based on canal gain patterns.

RFC1 Spectrum Disorder in a Norwegian CANVAS Cohort
Background Late‐onset cerebellar ataxia with neuropathy and vestibular areflexia syndrome (CANVAS) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder defined by sensory neuropathy, cerebellar ataxia, and bilateral vestibulopathy. While each symptom impairs balance, their combination causes substantial disability.

ABSTRACT Objective To investigate the impact of balance and dizziness problems (BDP) and other risk factors on falls in a longitudinal, population‐based cohort of older adults. Methods The Age, Gene/Environment Susceptibility‐Reykjavik Study (AGES‐RS I) 2002–2006 examined 5764 adults aged 66–98. Five years later, 3316 surviving subjects were reexamined

GAA‐FGF14 Expansions and CACNA1A Variants: Phenotypic Overlap and Diagnostic Implications
Abstract Background An intronic (GAA)•(TTC) repeat expansion in FGF14 was recently identified as the cause of spinocerebellar ataxia 27B (SCA27B), a disorder presenting with both chronic cerebellar ataxia and episodic symptoms. The phenotype of SCA27B overlaps with that of CACNA1A spectrum disorders.

Bilateral Superior Semicircular Canal Dehiscence in Patient With Persistent Ear Pain
Superior semcircular canal dehiscence is a radiological diagnosis which is associated with sound-induced hearing loss, vertigo, nystagmus and oscillopsia. The clinical manifestations have been explained by the absence of a bony cover, generating a ‘third
