Rapid adaptation of multisensory integration in vestibular pathways
Frontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2015 Sensing gravity is vital for our perception of spatial orientation, the control of upright posture, and generation of our every day activities. When an astronaut transitions to microgravity or returns to earth, the vestibular input arising from self ...

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract An exquisitely preserved, isolated partial petrosal with associated fragmentary stapes is described from the Vastan Lignite Mine (Gujarat, India), dated to the early Eocene (~54.5 Ma). Several anatomical traits (e.g., large petrosal plate; posterolateral entry of the internal carotid artery to the tympanic cavity; bony tubes surrounding the ...

Mesna in Otologic Surgery: Efficacy and Safety—A Scoping Review
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.PRISMA flow diagram indicating the process of systematic inclusion and exclusion of articles. ABSTRACT Objective Mesna (Sodium 2‐mercaptoethanesulfonate) is widely used as a mucolytic agent and uroprotective agent. Recently, its disulfide bond‐breaking property has been applied in otologic surgery to facilitate safer dissection of cholesteatoma and ...

Neuropharmacological targets for drug action in vestibular sensory pathways [PDF]
, 2017 The use of pharmacological agents is often the preferred approach to the management of vestibular dysfunction. In the vestibular sensory pathways, the sensory neuroepithelia are thought to be influenced by a diverse number of neuroactive substances that ...

Balance Disorders in Young and Middle‐Aged Adults: NHANES, 2001–2004 and 2021–2023
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.This study presents nationally‐representative estimates from two health exam surveys, NHANES 2001–2004 and 2021–2023. In the two decades between test periods, scores on the modified Romberg screening test for balance function demonstrated significantly better age‐specific performance in 2021–2023.

Labyrinthine Abnormalities on MRI in Untreated Otosclerosis: Prevalence and Clinical Relevance
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.In untreated otosclerosis with labyrinthine symptoms, delayed 3D FLAIR MRI rarely demonstrates endolymphatic hydrops but frequently reveals blood–labyrinth barrier (BLB) disruption. BLB enhancement is spatially associated with cochlear endosteal and round window involvement and increases with the severity of the hearing loss phenotype.

Developmental changes of ENaC expression and function in the inner ear of pendrin knock-out mice as a perspective on the development of endolymphatic hydrops. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Pendrin mutations cause enlarged vestibular aqueducts and various degrees of sensorineural hearing loss. The selective abolition of pendrin causes dilation of the membranous labyrinth known as endolymphatic hydrops, loss of the endocochlear potential ...
