An investigation into possible interactions in the vestibular system and the cochlea during electrical stimulation [PDF]

open access: goldFrontiers in Neuroscience
IntroductionThe vestibular system is crucial for balance, spatial orientation, and gaze stabilization. Bilateral vestibulopathy (BV) severely impairs these functions, often co-occurring with severe to profound hearing loss.

Regeneration of Hair Cells in the Human Vestibular System [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2022
The vestibular system is a critical part of the human balance system, malfunction of this system will lead to balance disorders, such as vertigo. Mammalian vestibular hair cells, the mechanical receptors for vestibular function, are sensitive to ototoxic

Spatial orientation, postural control and the vestibular system in healthy elderly and Alzheimer’s dementia [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2023
Background While extensive research has been advancing our understanding of the spatial and postural decline in healthy elderly (HE) and Alzheimer’s disease (AD), much less is known about how the vestibular system contributes to the spatial and postural ...

Expression of calcitonin gene-related peptide in efferent vestibular system and vestibular nucleus in rats with motion sickness. [PDF]

open access: goldPLoS ONE, 2012
UNLABELLED: Motion sickness presents a challenge due to its high incidence and unknown pathogenesis although it is a known fact that a functioning vestibular system is essential for the perception of motion sickness. Recent studies show that the efferent

The Effect of Somatosensorial System on Vestibular System. [PDF]

open access: yesIndian J Otolaryngol Head Neck Surg, 2022
The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of the somatosensory system on the vestibular system and the interconnected ways they work together to maintain balance. The study was conducted on 54 individuals (27 females and 27 males), aged between 18-25 years. vHIT as well as cVEMP tests were used to evaluate the participants.

Reviewing the Role of the Efferent Vestibular System in Motor and Vestibular Circuits [PDF]

open access: goldFrontiers in Physiology, 2017
Efferent circuits within the nervous system carry nerve impulses from the central nervous system to sensory end organs. Vestibular efferents originate in the brainstem and terminate on hair cells and primary afferent fibers in the semicircular canals and

The vestibular system in pain and embodiment: cortical overlap, modulatory potential, and therapeutic perspectives [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience
Musculoskeletal pain is increasingly understood as a product of disrupted multisensory integration rather than a direct consequence of tissue damage alone.

Diabetes and the Vestibular System.

open access: yesSemin Hear, 2019
AbstractFalls are among the most injurious, costly, and feared conditions affecting older adults. Patients with diabetes have a significantly greater risk for falling due to complications affecting the sensory systems required for balance: vision, proprioception, and vestibular.
