The Growing Evidence for the Importance of the Otoliths in Spatial Memory [PDF]

Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2019
Many studies have demonstrated that vestibular sensory input is important for spatial learning and memory. However, it has been unclear what contributions the different parts of the vestibular system – the semi-circular canals and otoliths – make to ...

Inadvertent Dural Puncture Causing Low Pressure Headache and Peripheral Vestibular Bilateral Damage [PDF]

Audiology Research
Introduction: This edition of the Audiology Research journal is dedicated to Dr. John Epley. For this reason, we would like to present a very unusual case involving the development of a bilateral abnormality of the otolith organs.

Fluctuating Asymmetry in Asteriscii Otoliths of Common Carp (Cyprinus carpio) Collected from Three Localities in Iraqi Rivers Linked to Environmental Factors

Fishes, 2022
Otoliths, calcified structures in the inner ears, are used to estimate fish age, and their shape is an efficient fish stock identification tool. Otoliths are thus very important for the management and assessment of commercial stocks.

‘Ear stones’ in crocodylians: a cross-species comparative and ontogenetic survey of otolith structures

Royal Society Open Science, 2022
The vestibular system of the inner ear is a crucial sensory organ, involved in the sensation of balance and equilibrium. It consists of three semicircular canals that sense angular rotations of the head and the vestibule that detects linear acceleration ...

Insights of Otoliths Morphology to Reveal Patterns of Teleostean Fishes in the Southern Atlantic

Fishes, 2022
The sagitta otoliths of teleostean fishes are usually used in diverse studies. Their shapes are species-specific, and the qualitative description of their morphological features seems to be a simple task, despite its subjectivity.
