Computational fluid dynamics simulations of airflow through the nasal passages of rhinolophoid bats

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The nasal passages of bats that emit their echolocation call through their nostrils have adapted for sound emission as well as standard respiratory and olfactory functions. Rhinolophids, hipposiderids and rhinonycterids all use a high duty cycle (HDC) echolocation strategy.

Negative emotional stimuli enhance vestibular processing [PDF]

, 2015
Recent studies have shown that vestibular stimulation can influence affective processes. In the present study, we examined whether emotional information can also modulate vestibular perception. Participants performed a vestibular discrimination task on a

Modern competency‐based teaching of human sexual development

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Embryology is an integral part of anatomy and a key subject in basic medical education. The development of the sexual tract, which is closely associated with the formation of the urinary tract and the organs of continence, is particularly complex and relevant for many medical disciplines.

The effect of proprioceptive vestibular rehabilitation on sensory-motor symptoms and quality of life

Arquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria
Background Peripheral vestibular hypofunction (PVH) is characterized by balance and gait disorders and vestibulo-autonomic findings. The vestibular system and proprioceptive system work together to regulate sensorimotor functions.

Development of a dynamic virtual reality model of the inner ear sensory system as a learning and demonstrating tool [PDF]

, 2009
In order to keep track of the position and motion of our body in space, nature has given us a fascinating and very ingenious organ, the inner ear. Each inner ear includes five biological sensors - three angular and two linear accelerometers - which ...

Immersive virtual reality as a teaching tool in neuroanatomy: A scoping review

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Basic core courses in various undergraduate programs, such as neuroanatomy, pose a challenge for students due to the large volume and complexity of the content. In this context, educational technologies such as immersive virtual reality (IVR), which allow students to actively interact with learning materials, offer a complementary pedagogical ...

Examining the Validity and Reliability of Evaluation in Ayres Sensory Integration Data Collected With Autistic Children: A Rasch Analysis

Autism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Performance‐based assessments of sensory function provide essential insights into sensory integration challenges in autistic children and provide objective, standardized measurement data that can be used to tailor targeted interventions. We sought to evaluate the validity and reliability of data collected using the Evaluation in Ayres Sensory ...

Motor Disorders in Autism: From Comorbidity to Core Criterion

Autism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While repetitive movements are recognized as a diagnostic hallmark of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) in frameworks such as the DSM and ICD, other motor disturbances, including gait atypicalities and postural control difficulties, have historically been overlooked or framed as secondary comorbidities.
