Background: Cervical VEMPs and ocular VEMPs are tests for evaluating otolith function in clinical practice. We developed a simple, portable and affordable device to record VEMP responses on patients, named μVEMP.

The Tangential Nucleus Controls a Gravito-inertial Vestibulo-ocular Reflex [PDF]
Whilst adult vertebrates sense changes in head position using two classes of accelerometer, at larval stages zebrafish lack functional semicircular canals and rely exclusively on their otolithic organs to transduce vestibular information.

We present the most densely sampled phylogeny of Carex section Lupulinae to date (107 specimens) and describe herein a new cryptic species for science from the southern United States, which is locally abundant and found in well‐explored and densely populated areas. Combining DNA sequences with morphometric data obtained from 299 samples, we Demonstrate

A Rare Case of Prostatic Utricle with Crossover Vas Deferens in Children
Background: A prostatic utricle (PU) is an unusual pathology with most patients being asymptomatic. However, approximately 29% of patients may show lower urinary tract symptoms, recurrent urinary tract infections (UTI), postvoid dribbling, urethral ...

Early assessment of vestibular function after unilateral cochlear implant surgery [PDF]
Introduction : Cochlear implantation (CI) has been reported to negatively effect on the vestibular function. The study of the vestibular function has variably been conducted by different types of diagnostic tools. The combined use of modern, rapidly

Various sodium channel isoforms and their scaffolding proteins are found in four different microdomains in vestibular calyx‐bearing afferents. These microdomains serve different purposes, analogous to the heminode, axon initial segment, and synaptic domains of other types of sensory afferents.

Mohl's “Primordial Utricle” [PDF]
I SHOULD like to inquire, through the medium of NATURE, whether the way in which botanists now use Mohl's term “primordial utricle” is strictly accurate? In Sachs' “Lehrbuch,” and in the English translation, it is applied to the parietal layer of protoplasm found in plant cells which are old enough to have a large central vacuole, and this practice is ...

ABSTRACT Background Mixed gonadal dysgenesis (MGD) is a rare form of differences in sex development (DSD) typically associated with 45,X/46,XY mosaicism. The phenotypic presentation of MGD varies from atypical genitalia to typical male or female appearances often associated with Turner stigmata.

Vortical flow in the utricle and the ampulla: a computational study on the fluid dynamics of the vestibular system [PDF]
We present a computational study of the fluid dynamics in healthy semicircular canals (SCCs) and the utricle. The SCCs are the primary sensors for angular velocity and are located in the vestibular part of the inner ear.

Stereociliary Myosin-1c Receptors Are Sensitive to Calcium Chelation and Absent from Cadherin 23 Mutant Mice [PDF]
The identities of some of the constituents of the hair-cell transduction apparatus have been elucidated only recently. The molecular motor myosin-1c (Myo1c) functions in adaptation of the hair-cell response to sustained mechanical stimuli and is ...
