Interpreting the meaning of changes in hippocampal volume associated with vestibular loss

نویسندگان

چکیده

Many studies have documented cognitive deficits, especially spatial in patients with some form of vestibular loss. Almost 20 years ago, hippocampal (HPC) atrophy was reported to be correlated memory deficits such and the idea has gradually emerged that HPC may causally responsible for deficits. However, results volume following loss not always been consistent, a number no evidence atrophy. This paper argues atrophy, if it does occur loss, directly, is more likely rapid functional changes are responsible, due interruption transmission information HPC. The argument presented here rests on 3 tranches evidence: (1) Cognitive observed humans even absence atrophy; (2) animal despite deficits; (3) Animal shown immediate consequences place cells, far too quickly explained by It possible when occur, related longer-term consquences living which increase circulating cortisol.

Changes in fitness are associated with changes in hippocampal microstructure and hippocampal volume among older adults

This study investigates the effects of fitness changes on hippocampal microstructure and hippocampal volume. Fifty-two healthy participants aged 59-74years with a sedentary lifestyle were randomly assigned to either of two levels of exercise intensity. Training lasted for six months. Physical fitness, hippocampal volumes, and hippocampal microstructure were measured before and after training. H...

The Effects of Bilateral Vestibular Loss on Hippocampal Volume, Neuronal Number, and Cell Proliferation in Rats

Previous studies in humans have shown that bilateral loss of vestibular function is associated with a significant bilateral atrophy of the hippocampus, which correlated with the patients' spatial memory deficits. More recently, patients who had recovered from unilateral vestibular neuritis have been reported to exhibit a significant atrophy of the left posterior hippocampus. Therefore, we inves...

Factors Associated with Vestibular Disorders in Patients with Sensorineural Hearing Loss Due to Acute Acoustic Trauma: A brief report

Background & Aim: Acute acoustic trauma is an important cause of sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL). Determination of the frequency and contributing factors for vestibular disorders is important, therefore, the current study was performed to assess these factors in patients referred to the ears, nose, and throat (ENT) clinic of one of the hospitals in Tehran, Iran, during the years 2017 to 2019....

Novel genetic loci associated with hippocampal volume

The hippocampal formation is a brain structure integrally involved in episodic memory, spatial navigation, cognition and stress responsiveness. Structural abnormalities in hippocampal volume and shape are found in several common neuropsychiatric disorders. To identify the genetic underpinnings of hippocampal structure here we perform a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of 33,536 individuals ...
