Sympathetic nerve activity during natural stimulation of horizontal semicircular canals in humans

open access: yes, 1998
We have shown that static head-down neck flexion elicits increases in muscle (MSNA) but not skin sympathetic nerve activity (SSNA) in humans. These findings suggest that stimulation of the otolith organs causes differential sympathetic outflow to ...

Scan for Success? Number Needed to Scan and Management Changes in Preoperative Otosclerosis: Quantitative Analysis

open access: yesOtolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To quantify the cumulative number of images needed to scan (NNS) with preoperative high‐resolution temporal bone computed tomography (HR‐TBCT) to yield a change in management in patients undergoing primary stapes surgery for otosclerosis‐related hearing loss. Study Design Retrospective cohort.

Mechanical, rheological, and durability performances of GGBS‐based concrete for potential application to prestressed structures

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Ground granulated blast‐furnace slag (GGBS) is a widely used clinker substitute in concrete, recognized for its potential to significantly reduce environmental impacts. However, its application in prestressed concrete remains limited in several countries, mainly due to concerns regarding early‐age mechanical performance and long‐term ...

Fluidmechanics of semicircular canals - revisited [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
.: In this work we find the exact solution for the flow field in a semicircular canal which is the main sensor for angular motion in the human body. When the head is rotated the inertia of the fluid in the semicircular canal leads to a deflection of ...

Subjective Visual Vertical Can be an Effective Tool to Evaluate Vestibular Function of Stapedotomy

open access: yesWorld Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To investigate if the subjective visual vertical/horizontal (SVV/SVH) can be used to evaluate the otolith organ of otosclerosis and stapedotomy. Design A total of 19 patients who were diagnosed with otosclerosis and underwent surgical treatment in our hospital were collected.

Orientation and Orthogonality of the Semicircular Canals in the Cheetah (Acinonyx jubatus)

open access: yes, 2017
The purpose of this study was to clarify the spatial orientation of the semicircular canals in the cheetah (Acinonyx jubatus) using computed tomography (CT). CT scan was performed on the skull of a cheetah. Scanning data were reconstructed into the cross-

Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo: Concomitant Involvement of Different Semicircular Canals

open access: yes, 2009
Objectives: We evaluated the simultaneous ipsilateral or contralateral involvement of the posterior and lateral, anterior and lateral, or posterior and anterior semicircular canals in patients with benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV).Methods: The

Comorbidity Patterns Between Hearing Loss and Symptomatic Dizziness in Middle‐Aged and Older Adults

open access: yesWorld Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To explore the comorbidity patterns between hearing loss and symptomatic dizziness (HL‐SD) in middle‐aged and older adults. Methods This cross‐sectional study used data from the 1999 to 2004 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). After excluding incomplete data, 2961 participants aged 40–69 were analyzed. Logistic

NMDA receptors in frog semicircular canals

open access: yes, 1993
The effects of competitive (2-amino-5-phosphonovaleric acid) and noncompetitive (Mg2+, ketamine and kynurenic acid) NMDA receptor antagonists were tested in isolated semicircular canals of the frog.
