This paper aims to examine the nature of width, depth and configuration distribution along Kuya River and their temporal directionality of changes. It also pays attention to prepare some simplified indices regarding basin asymmetry, channel asymmetry and river bank stability and to explain the nature of basin and channel asymmetry and river bank stability using those constructed indices. Irregu...

OBJECTIVE Better definition of normal amplitude asymmetry values on the classical EEG frequency bands. RESULTS EEG amplitude asymmetry index (AAI) is physiologically low in normal adults, differences usually lesser than 7%. CONCLUSION Persistent or intermittent amplitude asymmetry regional differences higher than 7% may be suggestive of pathology after adequate correlation with clinical dat...

background: centre of pressure displacement is an indicator of postural control. children with cerebral palsy have poor postural control. one common intervention to enhance their balance is vestibular stimulation. the aim of this research was to investigate the effect of vestibular stimulation on cop parameters in children with cerebral palsy (3-10 years old). methods: this study was a randomiz...

Introduction: Presence of vestibular schwannoma and a simultaneous glomus jugulare tumor is an extremely rare event. There is only one case report regarding the incidence of a contralateral vestibular schwannoma, along with a glomus jugulare tumor. Herein, we present the second case with a contralateral tumor.   Case Report: A 69-year-old woman presented with a long hist...

Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is known to be crucial for the development of peripheral vestibular neurons. However, the maturation profile of the BDNF signal transducing receptor, tyrosine kinase B (TrkB) in functionally activated otolith-related vestibular nuclear neurons of postnatal rats remains unexplored. In the present study, conscious Sprague-Dawley rats (P4 to adult) were sub...

Objectives We retrospectively evaluated a chart review of 3,525 patients for any acute disturbance. A total 1,504 with vestibular syndrome (AVS) received an instrumental assessment within 72 h from the onset symptoms using simultaneously combination ocular vestibular-evoked myogenic potential (oVEMPs), cervical (cVEMPs), video head-impulse test (vHIT), and subjective visual vertical (SVV) were ...

Objectives: This study was performed to evaluate the difference of cervical vestibular evoked myogenic potentials (cVEMP) stimulated by bone-conduction (BC) and air-conduction (AC) in patients with nonspecific dizziness.Methods: Twenty-eight dizzy (56 ears) 15 subjects (30 as normal control enrolled. Responses BC- AC-cVEMP were recorded sequentially both groups. cVEMP parameters including laten...

OBJECTIVES Rectified vestibular evoked myogenic potential (rVEMP) is new method that simultaneously measures the muscle contraction power during VEMP recordings. Although there are a few studies that have evaluated the effect of the rVEMP, there is no study that has evaluated the capacity of rVEMP during asymmetrical muscle contraction. METHODS Thirty VEMP measurements were performed among 20...

This case report presents the results of functional and myofunctional treatment of a 9-year, 5-month-old male patient with laterognathy, facial asymmetry and dentofacial deformity. The patient had a history of herpes encephalitis at age 8.5 months and palsy on the left side in early childhood, and his left side remained paralyzed as a sequela. The patient had dentoalveolar asymmetry with a Clas...

A caloric stimulus evokes primarily a horizontal vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) when subjects are in a supine or prone orientation with the horizontal semicircular canal plane oriented vertically. In both monkeys and humans, the magnitude of VOR eye movements is greater in the supine than in the prone orientation, indicating that some factor or factors, other than the conventionally accepted con...
