THE FUNCTION OF THE VESTIBULO-OCULAR REFLEX (VOR) IS TO STABILIZE VISUAL IMAGES ON THE RETINA DURING HEAD MOVEMENTS, THEREBY ENSURING MAXIMAL VISUAL ACUITY. IT IS POSSIBLE TO OBTAIN RELIABLE AND QUANTITATIVE INFORMATION ON VESTIBULAR FUNCTION USING A MOTORISED CHAIR, WITH THE SUBJECT’S HEAD AND BODY FIXED. SUCH TESTING OF THE VOR HAS ENTAILED LOW-FREQUENCY ROTATION […]
The objective of this study is the supposition, verified through suitable hematochemical tests, of the co-presence in the etiopathogenesis of the Menière syndrome and/or in the labyrinth pathologies or hypacusia also of central/systemic microtoxicosis. We do not therefore exclude other well known hypotheses on the causality of these pathologies, but one finds, above all in […]
Según nuestra experiencia el sistema vascular y su influencia bajo estímulos simpáticos y parasimpáticos juega un rol fundamental en la neurofisiología del equilibrio. Toda modificación del calibre arterial ya sea a nivel periférico o central bajo la dependencia del sistema simpático puede originar trastornos de nutrición a nivel de las células con modificación de sus […]
