Vestibular Drop Attacks and Meniere's Disease as Results of Otolithic Membrane Damage -- A Numerical Model [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 BACKGROUND: Meniere's Disease (MD) is a condition of the inner ear with symptoms affecting both vestibular and hearing functions. Some patients with MD experience vestibular drop attacks (VDAs), which are violent falls caused by spurious vestibular signals from the utricle and/or saccule. Recent surgical work has shown that patients who experience VDAs

Fractal Analyses Reveal Independent Complexity and Predictability of Gait [PDF]
PLoS ONE 12 (11): e0188711 (2017), 2017 Locomotion is a natural task that has been assessed since decades and used as a proxy to highlight impairments of various origins. Most studies adopted classical linear analyses of spatio-temporal gait parameters. Here, we use more advanced, yet not less practical, non-linear techniques to analyse gait time series of healthy subjects.

Audio-vestibular symptoms in systemic autoimmune diseases [PDF]
, 2018 Immune-mediated inner ear disease can be primary, when the autoimmune response is against the inner ear, or secondary. The latter is characterized by the involvement of the ear in the presence of systemic autoimmune conditions. Sensorineural hearing loss

Control of a hair bundle's mechanosensory function by its mechanical load [PDF]
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A. 2015 Mar 3;112(9):E1000-9, 2017 Hair cells, the sensory receptors of the internal ear, subserve different functions in various receptor organs: they detect oscillatory stimuli in the auditory system, but transduce constant and step stimuli in the vestibular and lateral-line systems. We show that a hair cell's function can be controlled experimentally by adjusting its mechanical load.

A Clinical Guideline Driven Automated Linear Feature Extraction for Vestibular Schwannoma [PDF]
, 2023 Vestibular Schwannoma is a benign brain tumour that grows from one of the balance nerves. Patients may be treated by surgery, radiosurgery or with a conservative "wait-and-scan" strategy. Clinicians typically use manually extracted linear measurements to aid clinical decision making.
