Importance of body sway velocity information in controlling ankle extensor activities during quiet stance

TL;DR: The findings suggest that the actual postural control system during quiet stance adopts a control strategy that relies notably on velocity information and that such a controller can modulate muscle activity in anticipatory manner without using a feed-forward mechanism.

Task, muscle and frequency dependent vestibular control of posture

TL;DR: This review explores and integrates task-, muscle- and frequency-related differences in the vestibular system’s contribution to posture, and proposes that the human nervous system has adapted Vestibular signals to match the mechanical properties of the system that each group of muscles controls.
Journal ArticleDOI

The effects of stochastic galvanic vestibular stimulation on human postural sway.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that subjects can act as ”responders” to galvanic vestibular stimulation, and the finding that the coherency was highest for the 1- to 2-Hz stochastic vestibul stimulation signal may be due to the intrinsic dynamics of the quasi-static postural control system.

Trigeminal, Visceral and Vestibular Inputs May Improve Cognitive Functions by Acting through the Locus Coeruleus and the Ascending Reticular Activating System: A New Hypothesis.

TL;DR: The trigeminal, visceral and vestibular control of ARAS/LC activity may explain why these input signals affect sensorimotor and cognitive functions which are not directly related to their specific informational content and are effective in relieving the symptoms of some brain pathologies, thus prompting peripheral activation of these input systems as a complementary approach for the treatment of cognitive impairments and neurodegenerative disorders.

The effectiveness of transcranial direct current stimulation (tdcs) on working memory in patients with major depression

TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated the effectiveness of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) on working memory in patients with major depression and found that TCS had a significant effect on increasing working memory and the impact will continue to follow up.

Tilted Perception of Subjective Orientation Following Unilateral Vestibular Lesion

TL;DR: It is concluded that vestibular signals are used more to determine SPV when proprioception changes rapidly and that the lateralized tilt observed in UVL is higher than that observed in normal conditions.
