Perspectives on aging vestibular function
Much is known about age related anatomical changes in the vestibular system. Knowledge regarding how vestibular anatomical changes impact behavior for older adults continues to grow, in line with advancements in diagnostic testing.

Interactions between Stress and Vestibular Compensation - A Review [PDF]
Elevated levels of stress and anxiety often accompany vestibular dysfunction, while conversely complaints of dizziness and loss of balance are common in patients with panic and other anxiety disorders.

From ear to uncertainty: Vestibular contributions to cognitive function.
In addition to the deficits in the vestibulo-ocular and vestibulo-spinal reflexes that occur following vestibular dysfunction, there is substantial evidence that vestibular loss also causes cognitive disorders, some of which may be due to the reflexive ...

Spike timing regularity in vestibular afferent neurons: How ionic currents influence sensory encoding mechanisms [PDF]
Primary vestibular neurons are categorized as either regularly or irregularly firing afferents that use rate and temporal sensory encoding strategies, respectively. While many factors influence firing in these neurons, recent work in mammalian vestibular afferents has demonstrated a rich diversity in ion channels that drive spiking regularity.

Modelling visual-vestibular integration and behavioural adaptation in the driving simulator [PDF]
It is well established that not only vision but also other sensory modalities affect drivers' control of their vehicles, and that drivers adapt over time to persistent changes in sensory cues (for example in driving simulators), but the mechanisms underlying these behavioural phenomena are poorly understood. Here, we consider the existing literature on

Chronic subjective dizziness (CSD) is a common vestibular disorder characterized by persistent non-vertiginous dizziness, unsteadiness, and heightened sensitivity to motion stimuli that may last for months to years after events that cause acute ...

Galvanic vestibular stimulation produces cross-modal improvements in visual thresholds [PDF]
Background: Stochastic resonance (SR) refers to a faint signal being enhanced with the addition of white noise. Previous studies have found that vestibular perceptual thresholds are lowered with noisy galvanic vestibular stimulation (i.e., "in-channel" SR).

Impact of Diabetic Complications on Balance and Falls: Contribution of the Vestibular System
Diabetes causes many complications, including retinopathy and peripheral neuropathy, which are well understood as contributing to gait instability and falls. A less understood complication of diabetes is the effect on the vestibular system.
