Artificial balance: restoration of the vestibulo-ocular reflex in humans with a prototype vestibular neuroprosthesis

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2014
The vestibular system plays a crucial role in the multisensory control of balance. When vestibular function is lost, essential tasks such as postural control, gaze stabilization, and spatial orientation are limited and the quality of life of patients is ...

EHR‐Integrated Synoptic Operative Reporting for Head and Neck Oncologic Surgery

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
EHR‐integrated synoptic operative templates for head and neck oncologic surgery was developed and implemented at a tertiary academic cancer center. Departmental adherence rose from 49% to nearly 80% over 6 months, and 94.5% of reviewed cases met targets for complete, internally consistent documentation. The resulting structured data dictionary provides

The vestibular implant: A probe in orbit around the human balance system

open access: yesJournal of Vestibular Research, 2017
The primary goal of the vestibular implant is to restore the vestibular function in patients with a disabling bilateral vestibular loss for whom there is currently no available treatment. The prototype developed by our team is a hybrid system consisting of a modified cochlear implant incorporating additional vestibular electrodes.

Plasticity of histamine H3 receptor expression and binding in the vestibular nuclei after labyrinthectomy in rat [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Background: In rat, deafferentation of one labyrinth (unilateral labyrinthectomy) results in a characteristic syndrome of ocular and motor postural disorders (e.g., barrel rotation, circling behavior, and spontaneous nystagmus). Behavioral recovery (e.g.,

Optical Stimulation and Monitoring of the Peripheral Nervous System: Perspectives and Challenges Toward Clinical Translation

open access: yesLaser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
Optical neuromodulation with IR light allows stimulation of the PNS without the need for physical contact with the target nerve or without requiring any genetic modification. The clinical translation of this technique will pave the way to the development of neural interfaces for restoring sensory feedback in individuals with limb amputation.

Simulation and evaluation of stimulation scenarios for targeted vestibular nerve excitation

open access: yesCurrent Directions in Biomedical Engineering, 2016
Recent studies show that vestibular implants have the potential to compensate the loss of functionality of the organ of equilibrium. The objective of this study was the development of a simulation framework which estimates the capability of various ...

Designing artificial senses: steps from physiology to clinical implementation

open access: yesSwiss Medical Weekly, 2019
Our senses are the main information channels through which we perceive and interact with the world. Consequently, the physical and social functioning of patients suffering from severe sensory disabilities is limited on several levels.

Characterizing human vestibular sensory epithelia for experimental studies: new hair bundles on old tissue and implications for therapeutic interventions in ageing. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Balance disequilibrium is a significant contributor to falls in the elderly. The most common cause of balance dysfunction is loss of sensory cells from the vestibular sensory epithelia of the inner ear.

Multimodal Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Machine Learning Uncovers Distinct Progression Patterns in Friedreich Ataxia

open access: yesMovement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Friedreich ataxia (FRDA) is a rare neurodegenerative disorder with heterogenous clinical progression, complicating prognosis and trial design. Neuroimaging offers objective biomarkers of disease progression, yet variability in progression patterns remains poorly understood.
