Vestibular Function and Activities of Daily Living

open access: yesGerontology and Geriatric Medicine, 2015
Objective: Vestibular dysfunction increases with age and is associated with mobility difficulties and fall risk in older individuals. We evaluated whether vestibular function influences the ability to perform activities of daily living (ADLs). Method: We

Vestibular loss disrupts visual reactivity in the alpha EEG rhythm

open access: yesNeuroImage: Clinical, 2023
The alpha rhythm is a dominant electroencephalographic oscillation relevant to sensory-motor and cognitive function. Alpha oscillations are reactive, being for example enhanced by eye closure, and suppressed following eye opening.

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

open access: yesEar, 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.

Functional Loss After Meningitis—Evaluation of Vestibular Function in Patients With Postmeningitic Hearing Loss

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2020
Introduction: The inner ear vestibular system is essential to balance function. Although hearing loss is well-described and quite common following meningitis, the literature evaluating vestibular function following meningitis is very limited.

Cervical Vestibular Evoked Myogenic Potentials in Vestibular Neuritis [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Medical Arts, 2022
Background and Aim: Vestibular evoked myogenic potentials [VEMP] are electromyographic responses to acoustic stimuli to assess the otolith function and integrity of inferior vestibular nerve. It is an easy test to perform and non-invasive. This study was

Research progress on vestibular dysfunction and visual–spatial cognition in patients with Alzheimer’s disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2023
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) or vestibular dysfunction may impair visual–spatial cognitive function. Recent studies have shown that vestibular dysfunction is increasingly common in patients with AD, and patients with AD with vestibular impairment show more ...

An Overview of Auditory and Vestibular Disorders in Alzheimer’s Disease: A Narrative Review [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Rehabilitation Sciences and Research, 2022
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common cause of dementia which, in addition to affecting memory, cognition, language, and other functions, also appears to be associated with hearing loss and vestibular function.

Neuropharmacological targets for drug action in vestibular sensory pathways [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The use of pharmacological agents is often the preferred approach to the management of vestibular dysfunction. In the vestibular sensory pathways, the sensory neuroepithelia are thought to be influenced by a diverse number of neuroactive substances that ...
