Components of vestibular cortical function

Behavioural Brain Research, 2013
It is known that the functional response (e.g., nystagmus) to caloric vestibular stimulation is delayed and prolonged compared with the stimulus-response timing of other sensory systems. Imaging studies have used different models to predict cortical responses and to determine the areas of the brain that are involved.

Dyscalculia and vestibular function

Medical Hypotheses, 2012
A few studies in humans suggest that changes in stimulation of the balance organs of the inner ear (the 'vestibular system') can disrupt numerical cognition, resulting in 'dyscalculia', the inability to manipulate numbers. Many studies have also demonstrated that patients with vestibular dysfunction exhibit deficits in spatial memory.It is suggested ...

Bilateral Loss of Vestibular Function

Acta Oto-Laryngologica, 1995
The clinical findings in 53 patients with bilateral vestibular failure (BVF) seen in a neurological hospital are reported. Bilateral acoustic neuromas were excluded. Seven patients (13%) had progressive cerebellar degeneration; these patients had no hearing complaints but showed gait ataxia, abnormal eye movements and cerebellar atrophy on neuro ...

New Tests of Vestibular Function

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2001
Abstract: The vestibulo‐ocular reflex (VOR) is the only drive for short‐latency eye movements stabilizing the retina during externally imposed, sudden, high‐head accelerations. New strategies can exploit this unique VOR feature to study it under conditions relevant to the daily lives of patients, and to exclude the contributions from confounding ...

Vestibular Function in Auditory Neuropathy

Acta Oto-Laryngologica, 2000
Auditory neuropathy is characterized by mild-to-moderate pure-tone hearing loss, poor speech discrimination out of proportion with this loss, absent or abnormal auditory brainstem responses and normal outer hair cell function as measured by otoacoustic emissions and cochlear microphonics.

Functional Vestibular Disorders

2019
This chapter discusses vestibular symptoms in persons with normal labyrinths. They may be caused by alcohol, several types of medications and toxic substances, as well as metabolic and endocrinal disorders.

Vestibular Function and Cochlear Implant

ORL, 1998
The authors illustrate their personal experience relating to 32 patients, aged between 12 and 74 years, undergoing cochlear implant, in whom vestibular reflexes were evaluated before and after surgery. This series did not include cases of areflexia, but only 1 case of reduced vestibular reflexia consequently to surgery.

Vestibular function and cochlear implant

European Archives of Oto-Rhino-Laryngology, 2014
Vestibular lesions are found after cochlear implantation in 23-100 % of cases. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the vestibular function before and after implantation while focusing its feasibility. This prospective study included 35 patients, mean age 49 years.

Cochlear Implant and Vestibular Function

Otology & Neurotology, 2006
To document incidences of vestibular dysfunction after cochlear implantation and investigate why it occurs. This work was also motivated by a desire to provide the basis for better preoperative counseling and postoperative vestibular therapy to cochlear implant patients.Melbourne Cochlear Implant Clinic at a tertiary referral hospital.Prospective ...

Neuroanatomical Correlates of Vestibular Function

Annals of Otology, Rhinology & Laryngology, 1980
Neuroanatomical data revealed by new neuroanatomical techniques over the past decade, have clarified the central connections of the peripheral vestibular sense organs. A knowledge of this information is important in the clinical evaluation of vestibular disorders.
