Unveiling Otolith Mystery: Contemporary Testing Approaches and Their Clinical Significance

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Otolith is a critical component of the peripheral vestibular system responsible for detecting linear acceleration. Dysfunction of the otolith organs can lead to vertigo, balance disturbances, and gaze instability. By elucidating the physiological foundations and evaluating both current and emerging methods for assessing otolith ...

Nightly Hypoxia Does Not Seem to Lead to Otolith Dysfunction in Patients With Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Ear, Nose & Throat Journal, 2021
Objectives: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common sleep disorder, which is associated with recurrent oxygen desaturation during sleep. It has already been shown that nocturnal hypoxia may lead to cochlear dysfunction in patients with OSA.

Static Otolith Signals Reflect Clinical Course in Acute Vestibular Neuritis

Clinical Otolaryngology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives To investigate how static and dynamic utricular functions differentially correlate with dizziness symptoms and quality of life (QoL) recovery in patients with acute vestibular neuritis (VN). Design Prospective observational study with 1‐week and 1‐month follow‐up assessments. Setting Tertiary referral centre. Participants Twenty‐six

Nocturnal Hypoxemia Burden Correlates With Vestibular Dysfunction in Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Clinical Otolaryngology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a potential contributor to vestibular dysfunction, though specific correlating parameters remain unclear. This study aimed to determine whether hypoxemia severity indices correlate quantitatively with caloric slow‐phase eye velocity (SPV), a marker of vestibular function. Methods In a retrospective

Involvement of the reticulospinal system in the control of locomotion

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend During human locomotion the legs appear to be co‐ordinated by a neural coupling mechanism. This is reflected by the observation that electrical stimuli (ES) applied to the right tibial nerve during the right swing result in a neural coupling response in the left gastrocnemius (GM, blue EMG signal).

Advances in FGF/FGFR Signaling: Implications for Disease and Therapy

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 9, September 2026.
The FGF/FGFR signaling is indispensable for the maintenance of physiological homeostasis and governs multiple biological processes, including embryonic development, bone metabolism, angiogenesis, and neurogenesis, whereas aberrant hyperactivation of this pathway drives the progression of malignancies and autoimmune disorders, including inflammatory ...

Vestibular evoked myogenic potentials in response to laterally directed skull taps

, 2002
In recent years it has been demonstrated that loud clicks generate short latency vestibular evoked myogenic potentials (VEMP). It has also been demonstrated that midline forehead skull tap stimulation evokes similar VEMP.

Vestibular Evoked Myogenic Potentials.

Equilibrium Research, 2000
Intense clicks evoke short-latency myogenic potentials on the sternocleidomastoid (SCM) muscle ipsilaterally. These potentials are named"vestibular evoked myogenic potentials (VEMP)" because they are lost after vestibular deafferentation, but independent of the cochlear function. To induce VEMP, the subjects need to contract their SCM muscle during the

Functional Aspects of Vestibular Evoked Myogenic Potentials

, 2020
Vestibular evoked myogenic potentials (VEMPs) are short-latency, otolith-driven vestibular reflexes evoked by sound, vibration or galvanic stimulation and recorded from ocular (oVEMPs) or cervical muscles (cVEMPs).
