Labyrinthine Vascular Disorders
Mv own interest in these conditions commenced when I met James Seymour at the Middlesex Hospital six years ago. The stimulus which he gave me then has been the major factor in producing this paper to,night. Seymour, six years ago, knew from his clinical association with the late Garnett Passe (1945, 1951, 1953) that certain labyrinthine disorders responded to local vasodilation-either by drugs,...
متن کاملFrom gait disorders to gait analysis
Medical scholarship about gait disorders blossomed in the nineteenth century: locomotor ataxia in tabetic neurosyphilis (Romberg, Gowers, and Charcot); the festinating gait of Parkinson’s disease, and so many others. In the same time appeared the measurement of locomotion in the modern sense: firstly by applying photography (Muybridge), and secondly by combining kinematic and kinetic locomotor ...
متن کاملMagnetic Vestibular Stimulation in Subjects with Unilateral Labyrinthine Disorders
We recently discovered that static magnetic fields from high-strength MRI machines induce nystagmus in all normal humans, and that a magneto-hydrodynamic Lorentz force, derived from ionic currents in the endolymph and pushing on the cupula, best explains this effect. Individuals with no labyrinthine function have no nystagmus. The influence of magnetic vestibular stimulation (MVS) in individual...
متن کاملNystagmus as a Sign of Labyrinthine Disorders-Three-Dimensional Analysis of Nystagmus-
In order to diagnose the pathological condition of vertiginous patients, a detailed observation of nystagmus in addition to examination of body equilibrium and other neurotological tests are essential. How to precisely record the eye movements is one of the goals of the researchers and clinicians who are interested in the analysis of eye movements for a long time. For considering that, one has ...

Gait and posture tend to become parkinsonian, meaning “looks like Parkinson’s disease.” This connotes a stooped posture, reduced armswing, reduced stride length and a tendency towards a flat foot strike However, a large number of pathological changes may develop contributing to this normal decline. Some of these involve the n...
