Vestibular deficits in neurodegenerative disorders: balance, dizziness, and spatial disorientation [PDF]
, 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

A physical model suggests that hip-localized balance sense in birds improves state estimation in perching: implications for bipedal robots [PDF]
, 2018 In addition to a vestibular system, birds uniquely have a balance-sensing organ within the pelvis, called the lumbosacral organ (LSO). The LSO is well developed in terrestrial birds, possibly to facilitate balance control in perching and terrestrial ...

Vestibular heading discrimination and sensitivity to linear acceleration in head and world coordinates [PDF]
, 2010 Effective navigation and locomotion depend critically on an observer\u27s ability to judge direction of linear self-motion, i.e., heading. The vestibular cue to heading is the direction of inertial acceleration that accompanies transient linear movements.

Visual mental imagery during caloric vestibular stimulation. [PDF]
, 2006 We investigated high-resolution mental imagery and mental rotation, while the participants received caloric vestibular stimulation. High-resolution visual mental imagery tasks have been shown to activate early visual cortex, which is deactivated by ...

Advances in Microfluidic Cochlea‐On‐A‐Chip
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This review systematically examines diverse cell sources for inner ear organoids and outlines stepwise induction protocols. Furthermore, it discusses current applications and prospective developments of cochlea‐on‐a‐chip technologies in areas such as deafness modeling, mechanistic studies, and drug evaluation, with particular focus on gene‐therapy drug

Association between hearing loss and vestibular disorders : a review of the interference of hearing in the balance [PDF]
, 2015 Dizziness is very prevalent and makes a great impact on people’s life. Because of anatomical and functional similarities of hearing and vestibular systems, it is noted that there is a big relation between hearing loss and vestibular disorders.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Data from a prospective cohort with 112 auditory brainstem implant users are analyzed. Younger age at implantation (<3 years), less severe inner‐ear malformation (common cavity, cochlear aplasia, and hypoplasia), and more intraoperative eABR evoked electrodes (≥60%) are associated with better hearing and speech outcomes.
