The Vestibulo-Collic Reflex is Abnormal in Migraine

open access: yesCephalalgia, 2007
Interictal evoked central nervous system responses are characterized in migraineurs by a deficit of habituation, at both cortical and subcortical levels. The click-evoked vestibulo-collic reflex (VCR) allows the assessment of otolith function and an oligosynaptic pathway linking receptors in the saccular macula to motoneurons of neck muscles.

Abnormalities of the acoustic reflex in multiple sclerosis

American Journal of Otolaryngology, 1986
Acoustic reflect morphology was examined in 122 patients with a diagnosis of definite multiple sclerosis. Abnormality in some dimension of acoustic reflex morphology was observed in 75 per cent of the study population. The most commonly observed abnormality was an alteration in one or more of the three relative amplitude indices (afferent, efferent, or

Blink reflex abnormalities in diabetes mellitus

Diabetes/Metabolism Research and Reviews, 2001
AbstractBackgroundDamage of the peripheral nervous system is particularly frequent in diabetes mellitus (DM), but somatic cranial neuropathies usually presenting as mononeuropathies are rare. Oculomotor and facial nerves are among the most commonly affected, whereas the Vth, IXth and Xth cranial nerves are less often affected.

Abnormal Swallowing Reflex and COPD Exacerbations

Chest, 2010
It is unclear whether an abnormal swallowing reflex affects COPD exacerbations. This study investigated the prevalence of abnormal swallowing reflexes and its relationship with COPD exacerbation prospectively. We also clarified its association with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and airway bacterial colonization.Swallowing reflex and serum C ...

Blink reflex abnormalities in Tourette syndrome

Clinical Neurophysiology, 2004
Tourette syndrome (TS) is a not uncommon disorder which represents the most complex manifestation of the spectrum of tic disorders, with onset during childhood or early adolescence. There are no definitive tests for diagnosis of TS. The objective of this study has been to demonstrate whether neurophysiological abnormalities of the blink reflex can be ...

Masseter reflex and blink reflex abnormalities in Chiari II malformation

Muscle & Nerve, 2001
Masseter reflex and blink reflex were evaluated in 64 patients with a myelomeningocele and Chiari II malformation. In 46 patients, no brainstem signs or symptoms were present. Brainstem dysfunction related to Chiari II malformation occurred in 18 patients. The masseter reflex was more frequently abnormal in the symptomatic than asymptomatic patients (P

Adductor T reflex abnormalities in patients with decreased patellar reflexes

Muscle & Nerve, 2009
AbstractThe adductor reflex (AR) is a tendon reflex that has various features that differ from other tendon reflexes. This reflex was tested in different disorders presenting with diminished patellar reflexes such as diabetic lumbosacral radiculoplexus neuropathy (DLRPN), L2–L4 radiculopathy, and distal symmetric diabetic neuropathy (diabetic PNP).

Stapedius Reflex Abnormalities in Multiple Sclerosis

International Journal of Audiology, 1975
Thirteen patients suffering from multiple sclerosis were analyzed by a Madsen ZO 70 electroacoustic bridge connected to an electronystagmograph through an impedance adaptor. Threshold, amplitude, decay and difference limen of intensity (DLI) of the stapedius reflex were examined for the frequencies 500, 1 000, 2 000 and 4 000 Hz. The difference between
