چکیده

This essay looks at the historical significance of three APS classic papers that are freely available online: Fernández C and Goldberg JM. Physiology of peripheral neurons innervating otolith organs of the squirrel monkey. I. Response to static tilts and to long-duration centrifugal force. J Neurophysiol 39: 970–984, 1976 (http://jn.physiology.org/cgi/ reprint/39/5/970). Fernández C and Goldberg JM. Physiology of peripheral neurons innervating otolith organs of the squirrel monkey. II. Directional selectivity and force-response relations. J Neurophysiol 39: 985–995, 1976 (http://jn.physiology.org/cgi/reprint/ 39/5/985). Fernández C and Goldberg JM. Physiology of peripheral neurons innervating otolith organs of the squirrel monkey. III. Response dynamics. J Neurophysiol 39: 996–1008, 1976 (http://jn.physiology.org/cgi/reprint/39/5/996).

مقایسه نتایج آزمون ویدئویی ایمپالس سر در افراد مبتلا به تومورهای سیستم دهلیزی محیطی و مرکزی

Background and purpose: Vestibular Schwannoma (VS) is a lesion in peripheral vestibular system that leads to reduction of Vestibulo Ocular Reflex (VOR) gain and incidence of corrective saccades. Researches showed that the result of Video Head Impulse Test (VHIT) is positive in peripheral vestibular system disorders and negative in central vestibular system disorders. The aim of this study was t...

The effect of preterm birth on vestibular evoked myogenic poten-tials in children

  Background :Preterm birth is a significant global health problem with serious short- and long-term consequences. This study examined the long term effects of preterm birth on vestibular evoked myogenic potentials (VEMPs) among preschool-aged children.   Methods : Thirty-one children with preterm and 20 children with term birth histories aged 5.5 to 6.5 years were studied. Each child underwent...

The effects of the rotatory maneuver on ENG results of patients with directional preponderance and a history of peripheral vestibular vertigo

This study was performed following favorable results from a previous research, which studied the response of acute vestibular patients to the rotatory maneuver, to investigate the effects of the rotatory maneuver on chronic vestibular patients. In an attempt to normalize the patient’s directional preponderance (DP), and hence their vestibular symptoms, the study was designed to reduce the imbal...

A 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...
