Volitional control of anticipatory ocular smooth pursuit after viewing, but not pursuing, a moving target: evidence for a re-afferent velocity store [PDF]
Although human subjects cannot normally initiate smooth eye movements in the absence of a moving target, previous experiments have established that such movements can be evoked if the subject is required to pursue a regularly repeated, transient target ...

Ontogeny of murine bony semicircular canal form
Abstract The labyrinthine geometry and functional anatomy of the semicircular canals have intrigued scientists for decades, and there has been considerable interest in understanding how these complex structures grow and develop with evidence emerging from human studies that size maturation occurs exceptionally early by comparison with other systems ...

Subclinical Neck Pain Alters Gaze Stability During the Vestibulo-Ocular Reflex
(1) Background: Subclinical neck pain is mild-to-moderate neck pain that has not yet been treated, and where individuals experience pain-free days. Alterations in sensorimotor integration, motor control, proprioception, and cerebellar inhibition have ...

Three-dimensional vestibular eye and head reflexes of the chameleon: characteristics of gain and phase and effects of eye position on orientation of ocular rotation axes during stimulation in yaw direction [PDF]
We investigated gaze-stabilizing reflexes in the chameleon using the three-dimensional search-coil technique. Animals were rotated sinusoidally around an earth-vertical axis under head-fixed and head-free conditions, in the dark and in the light.

A Core Head, Neck, and Neuroanatomy Syllabus for Physical Therapy Student Education
ABSTRACT Head, neck, and neuroanatomy are essential components of physical therapy education due to their broad clinical applications. Detailed syllabi exist for medical students, yet none have been developed for physical therapy. This study aimed to produce an International Federation of Associations of Anatomists core head, neck, and neuroanatomy ...

Vestibular Dysfunction in Parkinson's Disease: A Systematic Review of Signs and Symptoms
Abstract Background Despite the growing interest in the link between Parkinson's disease (PD) neuropathology and vestibular system, there is still a lack of consensus about the presence of vestibular dysfunctions in PD. Objective This review aims to identify vestibular signs and symptoms reported in PD patients and to summarize and critically appraise ...
