A Refined Vestibular Romberg Test to Differentiate Somatosensory from Vestibular-Induced Disequilibrium [PDF]
DiagnosticsBackground: The vestibular Romberg test, which assesses the deterioration of balance while standing on rubber foam with closed eyes, is a well-established method in the physical neurological assessment of patients with peripheral vestibulopathy.

Impairment of human spatial orientation in the horizontal, but not the vertical plane, due to aging, cognitive decline, or chronic peripheral vestibular loss [PDF]
Frontiers in Aging NeuroscienceIntroductionHumans and other vertebrates exhibit anisotropic orientation and navigation skills, with better performances in the horizontal compared to the vertical plane. While horizontal navigation accuracy decreases with higher age, less is known about

Protocol for assessing functional impairments in patients with unilateral and bilateral vestibulopathy: a novel approach to evaluate the impact of vestibular loss in daily life setting [PDF]
Frontiers in NeurologyBackgroundCurrent vestibular assessments typically focus on isolated reflex pathways, failing to reflect the integrative nature of balance control. Consequently, clinical results often do not align with patient-reported symptoms or functional limitations
