Vestibular function in the space environment [PDF]

open access: yesActa Astronautica, 1975
Adaptation to the weightless state and readaptation after space flight to the 1-G environment on the ground are accompanied by various transitory symptoms of vestibular instability, kinetosis, and illusory sensations. Aside from the problem of how to treat and if possible prevent such symptoms, they offer a clue to a better understanding of normal ...

Recovery of vestibular ocular reflex function and balance control after a unilateral peripheral vestibular deficit.

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2012
This review describes the effect of unilateral peripheral vestibular deficit (UPVD) on balance control as observed in stance and gait tests. Normally, a UPVD is defined based on vestibular ocular reflex (VOR) function.

Vestibular Functions and Parkinson's Disease [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2018
For decades it has been speculated that Parkinson's Disease (PD) is associated with dysfunction of the vestibular system, especially given that postural instability is one of the major symptoms of the disorder. Nonetheless, clear evidence of such a connection has been slow to emerge.

Postural compensation strategy depends on the severity of vestibular damage

open access: yesHeliyon, 2017
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of various levels of vestibular function on balance in two, free-standing rhesus monkeys. We hypothesized that postural control strategy depended on the severity of vestibular damage.

Vestibular Function and Beta-Amyloid Deposition in the Baltimore Longitudinal Study of Aging

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2018
Beta-amyloid (Aβ) plaque deposition is a key feature of Alzheimer’s disease (AD), and occurs years before the onset of symptoms. Aβ plaque deposition has been shown to be present in ~30% of cognitively normal older adults using amyloid C-11 labeled ...
