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

open access: greenIndian 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.

Development of the Vestibular System [PDF]

open access: greenNeuroembryology and Aging, 2002
This review mainly focuses on the development of the vestibular system in humans and other mammals, but reference is made to anurans and other species where applicable. In the first section, the steps involved in the development of undifferentiated cells into mature vestibular receptors are analysed.

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.

Vestibular System and Self-Motion [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2018
Detection of the state of self-motion, such as the instantaneous heading direction, the traveled trajectory and traveled distance or time, is critical for efficient spatial navigation. Numerous psychophysical studies have indicated that the vestibular system, originating from the otolith and semicircular canals in our inner ears, provides robust ...

Neuropharmacology of Vestibular System Disorders [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Neuropharmacology, 2010
This work reviews the neuropharmacology of the vestibular system, with an emphasis on the mechanism of action of drugs used in the treatment of vestibular disorders. Otolaryngologists are confronted with a rapidly changing field in which advances in the knowledge of ionic channel function and synaptic transmission mechanisms have led to the development

Aging and the peripheral vestibular system

open access: yesJournal of Otology, 2018
Whereas much has been learned about age-related auditory changes in the inner ear, relatively little is known about the aging effects on the vestibular part of the inner ear-the peripheral vestibular system. Here we review relevant literature with regard to the prevalence of vestibular dysfunction, vestibular functional and structural changes in the ...
