Publisher Summary The peripheral vestibular apparatus is housed within the petrous portion of the temporal bone. It consists of an outer protective bony labyrinth that encases a system of interconnected fluid-filled ducts called the membranous labyrinth.

Stress and the vestibular system
2020In this chapter we review the existing literature regarding the interactions between stress and the mechanisms that maintain balance. Evidence suggests that the interplay between neuro-endocrine and psychological factors may have a significant role in balance function. For example, in healthy individuals vestibular stimulation has been shown to trigger

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 and Ageing
2019The world's population is ageing due to increased hygiene and improved medical care. Dizziness and imbalance frequently affect the elderly and is most common among individuals over the age of 60. In this age group approximately 30% of the population experience these debilitating symptoms at some point.

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.

Central vestibular system modulation in vestibular migraine
Cephalalgia, 2014Background Vestibular migraine affects 1% of the general population, and 30%–50% of all migraine patients describe occasionally associated vertigo or dizziness. We aimed to identify brain regions altered in vestibular migraine in order to evaluate the connection between migraine and the vestibular system.

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 ...
