Sensorineural Hearing Loss in Patients With the m.1555A>G Mutation in the MTRNR1 Gene
Objective Mutations in the MTRNR1 gene of mitochondrial DNA are associated with non‐syndromic hearing loss and increased susceptibility to aminoglycoside ototoxicity. The aim of our study was to determine the clinical characteristics of sensorineural hearing loss caused by the m.1555A>G mutation in MTRNR1.

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.

Spatial orientation in patients with chronic unilateral vestibular hypofunction is ipsilesionally distorted [PDF]
OBJECTIVE Acute unilateral peripheral-vestibular hypofunction (UVH) shifts the subjective visual vertical (SVV) ipsilesionally, triggering central compensation that usually eliminates shifts when upright.

Vestibular deficits in neurodegenerative disorders: balance, dizziness, and spatial disorientation [PDF]
The vestibular system consists of the peripheral vestibular organs in the inner ear and the associated extensive central nervous system projections—from the cerebellum and brainstem to the thalamic relays to cortical projections. This system is important
