Vestibular Function in Patients With Vestibular Neuritis Experiencing Prodromal Dizziness
ABSTRACT Introduction It is unknown whether prodromal dizziness (PD) before an attack of vestibular neuritis (VN) has an association with peripheral vestibular lesions. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether the severity of vestibular dysfunction has an association with the presence of PD.

Brainstem dysfunction protects against syncope in multiple sclerosis [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to investigate the correlation between autonomic dysfunction in multiple sclerosis (MS) and brainstem dysfunction evaluated with the vestibular evoked myogenic potentials (VEMP) score and conventional MRI. -----

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

Habituation of vestibular‐evoked balance responses after repeated exposure to a postural threat
Abstract figure legend When stability is threatened, balance reactions to vestibular disturbances are facilitated. To determine if threat‐related changes in vestibular‐motor function are coupled with emotional/autonomic state changes, this study repeatedly exposed individuals to a postural threat (upper panel) while vestibular‐evoked balance responses ...

Bilateral cochlear implantation or bimodal listening in the paediatric population : retrospective analysis of decisive criteria [PDF]
Introduction: In children with bilateral severe to profound hearing loss, bilateral hearing can be achieved by either bimodal stimulation (CIHA) or bilateral cochlear implantation (BICI).

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.

Incorporating Vestibular Evoked Myogenic Potential (VEMP) assessment into our clinical practice [PDF]
Vestibular Evoked Myogenic Potentials (VEMPs) are short-latency electromyographic responses evoked by intense acoustic stimuli. They are measured in the ipsilateral, tonically-contracted sternocleidomastoid (SCM) muscle.

Physiology, clinical evidence and diagnostic relevance of sound-induced and vibration-induced vestibular stimulation [PDF]
Purpose of review: To examine the recent literature concerning the neural basis and clinical evidence for the response of the labyrinth to sound and vibration: vestibular-evoked myogenic potentials (VEMPs) and vibration-induced nystagmus (VIN).
