Inner ear ossification and mineralization kinetics in human embryonic development - microtomographic and histomorphological study. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Little is known about middle and inner ear development during the second and third parts of human fetal life. Using ultra-high resolution Microcomputed Tomography coupled with bone histology, we performed the first quantitative middle and inner ear ...

An experimentally informed computational model of neurovestibular adaptation to altered gravity

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Transitions to altered gravity environments result in acute sensorimotor impairment for astronauts, leading to serious mission and safety risks in the crucial first moments in a new setting. Our understanding of the time course and severity of impairment in the early stages of adaptation remains limited and confounded by unmonitored head ...

Investigation Into the Dynamics of the Cupula in the Vestibular Organ of Adult Zebrafish Using Metabolic Glycoengineering

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 17, 20 April 2026.
The cupula is a membrane within the vestibular organ that senses rotatory accelerations of the head. Metabolic glycoengineering in combination with bioorthogonal labeling demonstrates that in adult zebrafish – being a model for the human inner ear – this membrane is constantly renewed.

A 3D benign paroxysmal positional vertigo model for study of otolith disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
ObjectiveTo develop a three-dimensional study tool of the membranous labyrinth in order to study the pathophysiology, diagnostic workup and treatment of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV). BPPV is the most common cause of peripheral vertigo. Its

Construction and Evaluation of a Ballistic Gelatin‐Based Simulator for Transcervical Chorionic Villus Sampling

open access: yesJournal of Ultrasound in Medicine, Volume 45, Issue 6, Page 1297-1306, June 2026.
Chorionic villus sampling (CVS) is a crucial prenatal diagnostic tool, but a declining number of procedures makes training a challenge. Here we describe a transcervical CVS simulator made from ballistic gelatin. Ninety‐three Maternal‐Fetal Medicine providers used the simulators during hands‐on workshops and completed surveys regarding their fidelity ...

Feasibility of Minimally Invasive Robot‐Assisted Retrofacial Access to the Stapedius Muscle for Applications in Objective Cochlear Implant Fitting: A Cadaveric Study

open access: yesThe International Journal of Medical Robotics and Computer Assisted Surgery, Volume 22, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Accurate setting of maximum comfort levels (MCL) during cochlear implant (CI) fitting is essential but subjective, especially in non‐cooperative patients. The stapedius reflex (SR) correlates with the MCL and offers an objective measure.

A Core Head, Neck, and Neuroanatomy Syllabus for Physical Therapy Student Education

open access: yesClinical Anatomy, Volume 39, Issue 4, Page 436-460, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Head, neck, and neuroanatomy are essential components of physical therapy education due to their broad clinical applications. Detailed syllabi exist for medical students, yet none have been developed for physical therapy. This study aimed to produce an International Federation of Associations of Anatomists core head, neck, and neuroanatomy ...

Yield of Whole Genome Sequencing for Pathogenic Single Nucleotide Variants in Congenital Heart Disease: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesPrenatal Diagnosis, Volume 46, Issue 5-6, Page 780-818, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective This systematic review and meta‐analysis aimed to assess the diagnostic yield of pathogenic or likely pathogenic (P/LP) single nucleotide variants (SNVs) using whole genome sequencing (WGS) in congenital heart disease (CHD). Methods A systematic search of three databases (2000–2024) was conducted, and two reviewers independently ...

Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo

open access: yesJournal of Indira Gandhi Institute of Medical Sciences
Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is the leading etiology of peripheral vertigo. It manifests with transient, recurring bouts of vertigo brought on by movements of the head.
