Sex and Age Differences in the Severity of Dizziness Complaints in Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV)

open access: yesLaryngoscope Investigative Otolaryngology, Volume 10, Issue 5, October 2025.
Female patients exhibited longer BPPV durations and greater dizziness‐related distress compared to male patients. Recurrent BPPV was more prevalent in females, who also reported higher levels of physical distress. Additionally, patients with cupulolithiasis had significantly higher emotional and functional DHI scores than those with canalithiasis ...

Ageing changes the proprioceptive contribution to balance control under different types of mastoid vibration: A cross‐sectional study

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, Volume 110, Issue 10, Page 1431-1446, October 1, 2025.
Abstract Ageing‐related sensory deteriorations are significantly associated with poor balance control among older individuals, resulting in a higher risk of falling in a dark environment. In particular, the proprioceptive system plays a critical role in maintaining balance.

Cervical Spinal Cord Magnetization Transfer Ratio and Its Relationship With Clinical Outcomes in Multiple Sclerosis

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, Volume 12, Issue 9, Page 1794-1804, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Objective The cervical spinal cord (cSC) is highly relevant to clinical dysfunction in multiple sclerosis (MS) but remains understudied using quantitative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). We assessed magnetization transfer ratio (MTR), a semi‐quantitative MRI measure sensitive to MS‐related tissue microstructural changes, in the cSC and its ...

From Being Moved to Being Still: Kama Muta Reduces Postural Sway Velocity

open access: yesBrain and Behavior, Volume 15, Issue 9, September 2025.
Kama muta describes the emotion of being moved or touched. This study demonstrated that kama muta can stabilize posture because a reduction in sway velocity can be observed. ABSTRACT Objectives Grounded in embodiment theory, this exploratory study examines whether kama muta (as being moved/touched) elicits measurable changes in postural sway (subtle ...
