A hormonal component in central vestibular compensation.
In developing clawed toads Xenopus laevis, the compensation mechanism of behavioural defects caused by unilateral labyrinthectomy consists of two components, a vestibular one and a hormonal one. Thyroxine accelerates this compensation.
متن کاملA ROTATORY MANEUVER TO REDUCE IMBALANCE OF THE VESTIBULAR SYSTEM IN PATIENTS WITH VESTIBULAR VERTIGO
In an attempt to diminish the intensity of vertigo, this study was designed to reduce the imbalance between the vestibular system on the two sides. By rotating the subjects with a string-activated rotating chair in opposite direction of the dominant side, the dominant side would be inhibited and simultaneously the subordinate ide would be stimulated. Eight patients with vestibular vertigo c...
متن کاملLearning in the Vestibular System: Simulations of Vestibular Compensation Using Recurrent Back-Propagation
Vestibular compensation is the process whereby normal functioning is regained following destruction of one member of the pair of peripheral vestibular receptors. Compensation was simulated by lesioning a dynamic neural network model of the vestibulo~ular reflex (VOR) and retraining it using recurrent back-propagation. The model reproduced the pattern of VOR neuron activity experimentally observ...
متن کاملCompensation Following Bilateral Vestibular Damage
Bilateral loss of vestibular inputs affects far fewer patients than unilateral inner ear damage, and thus has been understudied. In both animal subjects and human patients, bilateral vestibular hypofunction (BVH) produces a variety of clinical problems, including impaired balance control, inability to maintain stable blood pressure during postural changes, difficulty in visual targeting of imag...
متن کاملRole of the flocculus in mediating vestibular nucleus neuron plasticity during vestibular compensation in the rat.
We investigated the role of the cerebellar flocculus in mediating the adaptive changes that occur in the intrinsic properties of brainstem medial vestibular nucleus (MVN) neurons during vestibular compensation. Ipsi-lesional, but not contra-lesional, flocculectomy prevented the compensatory increase in intrinsic excitability (CIE) that normally occurs in the de-afferented MVN neurons within 4 h...
