Purpose: Diabetes affects the peripheral auditory and vestibular systems. Research suggests that both cervical evoked myogenic potentials (cVEMP) ocular VEMP (oVEMP) are affected in individuals with diabetes. Masseter (mVEMP) is a new tool assesses vestibulomasseteric reflex pathways. The study aimed to characterize cVEMP mVEMP latency amplitude parameters diabetes mellitus type 2. Method: included 21 participants 2 age- gender-matched without aged 48–68 years. were recorded using 500 Hz...

The study's objective was to evaluate the functioning of sacculocollic and vestibulomasseteric reflex pathways in individuals with vestibular migraine migraine.

Abstract Motion sickness is a complex autonomic phenomenon caused by the intersensory conflict among balancing systems, resulting in mismatch of signals between static physical conditions susceptible individual exposed to dynamic environment. The present study was done assess sacculocollic reflex pathway and six semicircular canals individuals motion sickness. Standard group comparison used. A total 60 participants with an age range 17–25 yr were included, where I comprised 30 II without...

Abstract Objective To compare the EMG rectified amplitude, absolute latencies, interpeak interval, and Interaural asymmetry parameters of masseter vestibular-evoked myogenic potential (mVEMP) elicited using clicks, 500 Hz tone bursts, NB CE-chirps. Method Twenty-five young healthy adults in age range 18–27 years participated for study. mVEMP was recorded three different acoustic stimuli i.e., at an intensity 125 dB peSPL with 5.1/s repetition rate. The potentials were ipsilaterally zygomatic...

This study aimed to explore the functional integrity of vestibulo-masseteric and sacculo-collic reflex pathways in individuals with Auditory Neuropathy (AN). The also at finding correlation between mVEMP cVEMP response parameters for AN healthy individuals.

“Auditory neuropathy spectrum disorder” is a clinical disorder where the outer hair cell functioning intact but of auditory nerve affected. Since, 8th constituted by both and vestibular branch fibers, there are chances that might also be Hence, current study was carried out in order to determine individuals with Auditory Neuropathy. A total 11 participants were considered for study. cVEMPs oVEMPs administered using conventional protocol. In all (100%) absent whereas 2 ears 22 tested (90.90%)...

Masseter vestibular evoked myogenic potentials (VEMPs) are short-latency responses obtained in response to electric or acoustic stimulation. It is a relatively newer test that helps assess the vestibulo-trigeminal pathway, thereby gaining more interest brainstem pathologies like Parkinsonism, multiple sclerosis, and idiopathic random eye movement disorders. The purpose of study was compare effect zygomatic versus mandibular reference montage on latency amplitude masseter VEMP (mVEMP) using...

This study aimed to characterise the ipsilateral, contralateral and bilateral masseter vestibular-evoked myogenic potential using clicks 500 Hz tone burst stimuli in healthy adults.Masseter was recorded from 20 participants aged 19-28 years (11 males 9 females). Masseter click modes.A statistically significant difference observed between ipsilateral stimulation for p11 latency, n21 latency p11-n21 amplitude both stimuli. The of complex higher stimulations than stimulus.This showed a evoked...

This review article provides the readers with an in-depth insight in understanding and interpreting various research literatures on masseter vestibular evoked myogenic potentials (mVEMP). The also reviews contemporary researches involving clinical applications of mVEMP.

Abstract Introduction: Vestibular evoked myogenic potentials are short latency electrical impulses that produced in response to higher level acoustic stimuli. They used clinically diagnose sacculocollic pathway dysfunction. Aim: This study aimed compare the vestibular potential responses elicited by click stimuli and duration tone burst stimuli, normal hearing individuals. Method: Seventeen subjects participated. In all subjects, we assessed Results conclusion: The of (i.e. p13 n23 peaks)...

Abstract Background Masseter vestibular-evoked myogenic potentials (mVEMP) are vestibular-dependent inhibitory reflex recorded using acoustic stimulus. mVEMP can assess important brainstem regions. abnormalities have been reported in patients with multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease, and idiopathic random eye movement disorder. The objective of the study was to record tone-burst stimulus at different frequencies young healthy individuals. Method used normative design. Thirty-two...

Auditory neuropathy is characterized by a unique pattern of hearing loss, absent or severely distorted ABR, preserved OAE, and measurable cochlear microphonics. As the vestibular branches are parts same fiber bundle system called vestibulocochlear nerve, it likely that in one (cochlear branch) might also form feature other (vestibular branch). But none these tests able to explain involvement cases. Thus, present study was undertaken explore this aspect determine: (1) pathway cases with...

The objective of the study was to assess sacculocollic and otolith ocular pathway function using cervical vestibular evoked myogenic potentials (cVEMP) (oVEMP) in dancers non dancers. Total 16 subjects participated study. Out participants, 8 were trained Indian classical form dance (dancers) other participants who not any (non dancers). cVEMP oVEMP responses recorded for all subjects. Non Parametric Mann-Whitney U test revealed no significant difference between latency amplitude parameter...

Objective: This study aimed to correct the notion regarding efficacy of cervical vestibular evoked myogenic potentials (cVEMP) in identifying benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV)-associated changes peripheral system. Study design: A static group comparison research design was used compare cVEMP results a individuals with BPPV age range 30–60 years against age- and gender-matched healthy individuals. The were recorded tone bursts 500 Hz gated using Blackman window. 95dB nHL presented...
