background: multiple sclerosis (ms) is a chronic neurological disease that affects brain and spinal cord. the infratentorial region contains the cerebellum and brainstem. vestibular evoked myogenic potentials (vemps) are short-latency myogenic responses. cervical vestibular evoked myogenic potential (cvemp) is a manifestation of vestibulocolic reflex and ocular vestibular evoked myogenic potent...

background and aim: caffeine at low doses blocks adenosine receptors. these receptors are present in all parts of the body including auditory and vestibular system. this study aimed to evaluate the effects of caffeine on cervical vestibular evoked myogenic potential (cvemp). methods: in this interventional double-blind study, 40 cases (20 females and 20 males) aged 18-25 years were randomly ass...

  Background: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic neurological disease that affects brain and spinal cord. The infratentorial region contains the cerebellum and brainstem. Vestibular evoked myogenic potentials (VEMPs) are short-latency myogenic responses. Cervical vestibular evoked myogenic potential (cVEMP) is a manifestation of vestibulocolic reflex and ocular vestibular evoked myogenic pote...

PURPOSE To characterize the recording and analyze the results of the combined cervical and ocular vestibular evoked myogenic potential in individuals without hearing and vestibular complaints. METHODS In this study, 30 individuals without hearing complaints and hearing within normal limits were evaluated. Data were collected through the simultaneous recording of cervical and ocular vestibular...

INTRODUCTION The vestibular evoked myogenic potential is a potential of mean latency that measures the muscle response to auditory stimulation. This potential can be generated from the contraction of the sternocleidomastoid muscle and also from the contraction of extraocular muscles in response to high-intensity sounds. This study presents a combined or simultaneous technique of cervical and oc...

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...

background and aim: autoimmune inner ear disease (aied) may accompany certain systemic conditions, such as rheumatoid arth­ritis, and manifest audiovestibular dysfunction. this study aimed to compare the vestibular function between rheumatoid arthritis (ra) patients and normal subjects using cervical vestibular-evoked myogenic potentials and caloric tests. methods: in this cross-sectional study...

migraine is a neurologic disease, which often is associated with a unilateral headache. vestibular abnormalities are common in migraine. vestibular evoked myogenic potentials (vemps) assess otolith function in particular functional integrity of the saccule and the inferior vestibular nerve. we used vemp to evaluate if the migraine headache can affect vemp asymmetry parameters. a total of 25 pat...

  Background: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune systemic disease. Most common autoimmune diseases are multisystem disorders that may also present with otological manifestations, and autoimmune inner ear disease accompanied by vestibular dysfunction. This study aimed to compare the vestibular function between RA patients and normal subjects using cervical vestibular evoked myogenic...

OBJECTIVE This case-control study aimed to determine whether the imbalance in Charcot-Marie-tooth (CMT) disease is caused only by reduced proprioceptive input or whether the involvement of the vestibular nerve is an additional factor. METHODS Fifteen patients with CMT disease (aged 48 ± 17 years; 8 women) underwent cervical vestibular-evoked myogenic potentials, which reflect otolith-spinal r...
