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

Aging and the peripheral vestibular system
Journal 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

Diabetes and the Vestibular System.
Semin 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.

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

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

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

Differences in the Structure and Function of the Vestibular Efferent System Among Vertebrates
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2021 The role of the mammalian vestibular efferent system in everyday life has been a long-standing mystery. In contrast to what has been reported in lower vertebrate classes, the mammalian vestibular efferent system does not appear to relay inputs from other
