Epithelial morphogenesis to form the semicircular canal ducts of the zebrafish inner ear depends on the production of the large glycosaminoglycan hyaluronan, which is thought to contribute to the driving force that pushes projections of epithelium into ...

Central projections of auditory nerve fibers in the western rat snake (Pantherophis obsoletus)
The western rat snake does not have a tympanum but is able to detect low‐frequency vibrations. Using tract tracing, we found that auditory nerve fibers of the western rat snake project to two distinct cochlear nuclei, consistent with other reptiles. Auditory pathways are present despite loss of sensitivity to airborne sound.

The VOR gain of vHIT in the affected canal was significantly smaller than that in the contralateral canal in p‐BPPV, but not in h‐BPPV. The caloric responses of the affected canal are reduced to a significantly larger extent in h‐BPPV compared to p‐BPPV.

Cupulolithiasis: A Critical Reappraisal
Abstract Objective To review the history and pathophysiologic theories for cupulolithiasis and canalith jam in benign paroxysmal positional vertigo. Data Sources PubMed, Google Scholar. Review Methods Three PubMed and Google Scholar searches were performed, keywords: “cupulolithiasis,” “apogeotropic [and] benign,” and “canalith jam,” resulting in 187 ...

The heterogeneity of mammalian utricular cells over the course of development
Single‐cell RNA‐seq identified several cell clusters in whole mouse utricle sensory epithelia from the neonatal period to adulthood. New HCs mainly differentiated from Sox9 progenitor cells, and only a few were produced by mitotic proliferation. Ubch10 cells could generate HCs mitotically in adulthood.

Inner ear morphology in the Atlantic molly Poecilia mexicana--first detailed microanatomical study of the inner ear of a cyprinodontiform species. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Fishes show an amazing diversity in hearing abilities, inner ear structures, and otolith morphology. Inner ear morphology, however, has not yet been investigated in detail in any member of the diverse order Cyprinodontiformes.

Electric fields from both extremely low‐frequency magnetic fields (ELF‐MF) and alternating current (AC) stimulations impact human neurophysiology. As the retinal photoreceptors, vestibular hair cells are graded potential cells and are sensitive to electric fields. Electrophosphene and magnetophosphene literature suggests different impacts of AC and ELF‐

Immediate repeated testing (IRT) for BPPV: A cost‐effective examination
Abstract Objective To show that a negative Dix‐Hallpike test or Pagnini‐McClure test may convert into positive after head shaking in cases of semicircular canalith jam. Methods This is a retrospective study, where 768 cases of BPPV were studied of which 36 were found to have canalith jam.

Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo and vestibular impairment among older adults with dizziness
Abstract Objective This article aimed to investigate older adults visiting a geriatric institution for a bone density measurement who reported dizziness on a daily or weekly basis (but who are not seeking care for dizziness), according to BPPV, vestibular function, walking abilities, and frequency of falls.
