Measurements and System Identification for the Characterization of Smooth Muscle Cell Dynamics [PDF]
Biological tissue integrity is actively maintained by cells. It is essential to comprehend how cells accomplish this in order to stage tissue diseases. However, addressing the complexity of a cell's system of interrelated mechanisms poses a challenge.

Association of Blast‐induced Hearing Loss with Progression of Alzheimer’s Disease Pathology
Abstract Background Exposures to hazardous noise causes irreversible injury to the structures of the inner ear, leading to changes in hearing and balance function with strong links to age‐related cognitive impairment. While the role of noise‐induced hearing loss in long‐term health consequences, such as progression or development of Alzheimer’s Disease

Stimulation from Cochlear Implant Electrodes Assists with Recovery from Asymmetric Perceptual Tilt: Evidence from the Subjective Visual Vertical Test [PDF]
Vestibular end organ impairment is highly prevalent in children who have sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) rehabilitated with cochlear implants (CIs). As a result, spatial perception is likely to be impacted in this population.

The Follow-Up Role of the Vestibular Evoked Myogenic Potential Test in Meniere’s Disease
Despite some proposed roles for the diagnostic impact of the cervical vestibular evoked myogenic potential test in the patients with Meniere’s disease, the role of this test as an objective instrument in following up the patients with Meniere’s disease ...

Prognosis of asymptomatic endolymphatic hydrops in healthy volunteers: A five‐year cohort study
Approximately 7% of healthy subjects showed asymptomatic EH by means of the inner ear MRI. Out of these subjects, 25.0% have kept EH and subsequently developed to be typical types of Meniere's disease within the next 5 years. Abstract Background This study aimed to clarify the prognosis of asymptomatic endolymphatic hydrops (EH) in healthy volunteers ...

Association between hearing loss and vestibular disorders : a review of the interference of hearing in the balance [PDF]
Dizziness is very prevalent and makes a great impact on people’s life. Because of anatomical and functional similarities of hearing and vestibular systems, it is noted that there is a big relation between hearing loss and vestibular disorders.

Transient-evoked otoacoustic emission signals predicting outcomes of acute sensorineural hearing loss in patients with Meniere's Disease [PDF]
Background: Fluctuating hearing loss is characteristic of Meniere's Disease (MD) during acute episodes. However, no reliable audiometric hallmarks are available for counselling the hearing recovery possibility. Aims/Objectives: To find parameters for predicting MD hearing outcomes. Material and Methods: We applied machine learning techniques to analyse

BPPV patients with RD showed altered FC between hippocampal subfields and brain regions involved in spatial orientation and navigation, vestibular and visual processing, as well as emotional regulation. These findings offer novel insights into the pathophysiological mechanisms in BPPV patients with RD following successful CRP.

Obtaining single stimulus evoked potentials with Wavelet Denoising [PDF]
We present a method for the analysis of electroencephalograms (EEG). In particular, small signals due to stimulation, so called evoked potentials, have to be detected in the background EEG. This is achieved by using a denoising implementation based on the wavelet decomposition.
