The vestibular system of the owl
Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part A: Physiology, 1972Abstract 1. 1. Owls have a curious variability in the postrotatory head nystagmus following abrupt angular deceleration. 2. 2. Owls can exhibit a remarkable head stability during angular movement of the body about any axis passing through the skull. 3. 3.

The search for understanding the vestibular system continues. When this tiny organ system is disordered, it causes symptoms so distressing to the patient that he is frequently immobilized. Little wonder, then, that research in the field proliferates at a rate that sometimes causes an information gap between the scientist and the clinician.

, 2008 The vestibular portion of the membranous labyrinth consists of three pairs of semicircular canals, the horizontal, anterior, and posterior, and two pairs of otolith organs, the utricle and the saccule (Fig. 1). Like the cochlea, these structures are filled with endolymph, which communicates with the cochlea through the ductus reuniens.

The Vestibular System in the Elderly
Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America, 1982Aging in the peripheral vestibular apparatus is shown to consist of processes similar to those occurring in other parts of the nervous system. Sensory epithelium and primary efferents degenerate and are not replaced. Type I hair cells and elements of the pars inferior are most susceptible.

The bilateral central vestibular system: its pathways, functions, and disorders
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2015The bilateral anatomical organization of the vestibular system provides three functional advantages: optimal differentiation of head motion and orientation, sensory substitution of a unilateral peripheral failure, and central compensation of a peripheral

Laboratory examinations for the vestibular system
Current Opinion in Neurology, 2017Purpose of review In the last decades, researchers suggested that clinical assessment of labyrinthine function in detail became easy thanks to video head impulse tests (VHITs), vestibular evoked myogenic potential test (VEMP) and video-oculography (VOG).

Pharmacology of the vestibular system
Current Opinion in Neurology, 2000In the past year significant advances have been made in our understanding of the neurochemistry and neuropharmacology of the peripheral and central vestibular systems. The recognition of the central importance of excitatory amino acids and their receptors at the level of the hair cells, vestibular nerve and vestibular nucleus has progressed further ...
