Unlabelled: Electronystagmography (ENG) and videonystagmography (VNG) are eye movement recording methods used for the evaluation of balance disorders.
Aim: To compare literature information on the similarities, differences, advantages e disadvantages between ENG and VNG.
Materials And Methods: review of the scientific literature.
Results: ENG and VNG are very helpful methods for evaluating balance disorders, due to their capacity to recognize signs of peripheral or central vestibular dysfunction and to pinpoint the side of the lesion. Major advantages of VNG are related to calibration, temporospatial resolution, and recording of horizontal, vertical and torsional eye movements.
Conclusion: VNG is a new technology that presents advantages in the evaluation of eye movements; however, despite its disadvantages, ENG is still considered a valuable test in the clinical setting.

Background: Physical activity, sedentary behaviour, and diet synergically coexist (in different ways) within adolescents' lifestyles. Thus, understanding obesogenic behaviour patterns within populations is critical to promoting adolescents' health. This study investigates clustering patterns of adolescents' obesogenic behaviours across South American countries.

Environmental changes are a growing concern, as they exert pressures on ecosystems. In some cases, such changes lead to shifts in ecosystem structure. However, species can adapt to changes through evolution, and it is unclear how evolution interacts with regime shifts, which restricts ecosystem management strategies.

Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) poses a significant public health challenge in Canada, with the Atlantic provinces bearing a particularly high burden. The implementation of population-based colon screening programs is aimed to address this concern. However, limited research exists on the effect of these programs especially in Canada.

Purpose: China has experienced a heavy public health burden due to the increasing incidence of ischemic stroke (IS). Few studies have evaluated the relationship between particulate matter (PM) exposure and acute ischemic stroke (AIS) in relatively less-polluted areas, and the results have been inconsistent. As a result, this study aimed to investigate and evaluate the association between PM exposure and hospitalizations for AIS in an area with less air pollution.

Lung cancer is one of the most common life-threatening worldwide cancers affecting both the male and the female populations. The appearance of nodules in the scan image is an early indication of the development of cancer cells in the lung. The Low Dose Computed Tomography screening technique is used for the early detection of cancer nodules.
