The vestibular system is responsible for body balance. There are substances that damage it, causing dizziness; these termed vestibulotoxic substances. Agrochemicals have been investigated ototoxicity because of studies identified dizziness as a recurrent symptom among rural workers' complaints.

A one hypothesis to explain some vestibular peripheral disorders is their association with life style. Thus, studies young adults are relevant.to analyze the prevalence of dynamic balance alterations in and possible style variables, health negative emotional states (since they can impact outcome).we carried out a non-probabilistic cross-sectional, clinical-retrospective study (18-32 years age) from university 751 individuals, mean age 22.45+/- 3.32 years. Life style, (NES) variables -...

Abstract Introduction: Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by infiltration of cells on the Central Nervous System (CNS). There evidence that cumulative DNA damage can contribute to various mechanisms underlying MS lesions. Changes in postural balance are frequent observations subjects with MS. Objective: Evaluated index (DDI)) and patients Methods: A case-control study was conducted 28 matched for sex, age, body mass index, divided into group control. The...

Introduction: The postural balance is achieved through the interaction between visual, proprioceptive and vestibular systems. Osteopathic manipulation treatment may interact with these systems neural or sensory facilitation consequently, restore optimize balance. Objective: Find analyze studies that evaluated effects of osteopathic in individuals. Methods: systematic review using health descriptors (DeCS) “osteopathic treatment” “postural balance”, posting articles 2009 2015 different...

Evidence has shown that patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease present significant deficits in the control of postural balance when compared to healthy subjects.
