Introduction: The majority of the daily life activities involve the concurrent performance of simultaneously challenging motor and cognitive activities, such as talking while walking, which requires the vestibular system for balance. Functional balance allows the brain to interpret and integrate the sensory information from our physical and social environment. This study aimed to investig...

Removal of large and giant vestibular schwannomas is associated with the risk paresis facial muscles. The probability anatomical damage to nerve 10.3–14.0%. Treatment mimic muscle paralysis one most difficult problems in reconstructive surgery. In this study, results neurotization by masticatory were evaluated 4 patients after its during removal schwannomas. Neurotization was carried out 10–14 ...

It has been shown that sinusoidal galvanic vestibular stimulation (sGVS) has no effect on the firing of spontaneously active muscle spindles in either relaxed or voluntarily contracting human leg muscles. However, all previous studies have been conducted on subjects in a seated position. Given that independent vestibular control of muscle spindle firing would be more valuable during postural th...

BACKGROUND The vestibular system undergoes considerable modification during spaceflight [5]. This is paralleled by microgravity-induced muscle atrophy [6]. However, the possibility of vestibulo-autonomic regulatory mechanisms affecting skeletal muscle structure and function have not yet been addressed. OBJECTIVE We hypothesise that the vestibular system affects anti-gravitational skeletal mus...

Vestibuloplasty involves a series of surgical procedures designed to restore alveolar ridge height by lowering the muscles attached to the buccal, labial, and lingual aspects of the jaws. The technique is indicated in cases of insufficient vestibular depth that may result from atrophy of the alveolar ridge and/or high attachment of muscle or movable mucosa. This article focuses on a carbon diox...

background and aim: motion sickness (ms) is usually generated when there is a mismatch between the senses which serve balance. one of these senses is related to vestibular system, so it is highly possible that ms reflects in vestibular test results. but there are some conflicts in correlation between vestibular findings and ms. thus, the objective of this study was to provide an overview of ves...

background and aim: vestibular migraine is a type of migraine that causes vertigo, dizziness, and imbalance in addition to typical migraine symptoms. in this study, we aimed to investigate vestibular system in these patients by videonystagmography (vng), electrocochleography (ecochg), and vestibular evoked myogenic potential (vemp) testing. methods: this empirical study was conducted on 10 pati...

Daily activities, such as walking, may require dynamic modulation of vestibular input onto motoneurons. This dynamic modulation is difficult to identify in humans due to limitations in the delivery and analysis of current vestibular probes, such as galvanic vestibular stimulation. Stochastic vestibular stimulation, however, provides an alternative method to extract human vestibular reflexes. He...

Eye movements are very important in order to track an object or to stabilize an image on the retina during movement. Animals without a fovea, such as the mouse, have a limited capacity to lock their eyes onto a target. In contrast to these target directed eye movements, compensatory ocular eye movements are easily elicited in afoveate animals. Compensatory ocular movements are generated by proc...
