Vestibular Deficits in Neurodegenerative Disorders: Balance, Dizziness, and Spatial Disorientation [PDF]
Frontiers in Neurology, 2017 The vestibular system consists of the peripheral vestibular organs in the inner ear and the associated extensive central nervous system projections—from the cerebellum and brainstem to the thalamic relays to cortical projections. This system is important

Reviewing the Role of the Efferent Vestibular System in Motor and Vestibular Circuits
Frontiers 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

Electrophysiological Measurements of Peripheral Vestibular Function—A Review of Electrovestibulography [PDF]
Frontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2017 Electrocochleography (EcochG), incorporating the Cochlear Microphonic (CM), the Summating Potential (SP), and the cochlear Compound Action Potential (CAP), has been used to study cochlear function in humans and experimental animals since the 1930s ...

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

Self-motion evokes precise spike timing in the primate vestibular system [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2016 The accurate representation of self-motion requires the efficient processing of sensory input by the vestibular system. Conventional wisdom is that vestibular information is exclusively transmitted through changes in firing rate, yet under this ...

Vestibular system dysfunction in patients after mild traumatic brain injury
Annals of Agricultural and Environmental Medicine, 2018 Introduction In the literature there are some discrepancies concerning the occurrence of vertigo and disequilibrium, as well as the type of vestibular dysfunction in patients after mild traumatic brain injury (MTBI).

Neuropharmacology of Vestibular System Disorders [PDF]
Current 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

Efficacy of a Computerized Sensor System for Evaluation and Training of Dizzy Patients [PDF]
Sensors, 2010 Patients with vestibular hypofunction often experience dizziness and unsteadiness while moving their heads. Appropriate sensors can effectively detect a patient’s dynamic visual acuity and associated body balance control.
