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 […]

The variety of suggested treatments of nystagmus probably reflect its multiple pathogenetic mechanisms. Basic studies have shown that several neurotransmitters are involved in the ocular motor control, including gamma-aminobutyrric acid (GABA), acetylcholine and glycine. Recently, Stahl et al. (1995 ) investigated the effects of gabapentine on acquired pendular nystagmus in two patients with multiple sclerosis. […]

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 […]

Living is like getting irradiated. This is because we are constantly exposed to oxidants such as superoxide radicals, hydrogen peroxide, hydroxyl radicals, and single oxygen. These reactive oxygen species are generated during normal oxidative metabolism. Other sources of oxidants to wich we are constantly exposed include our diet, polluted air (particulary from smoking), natural radioctive […]
