Introduction: Masseteric VEMPs have been effective in evaluating a diverse spectrum of vestibular conditions associated with various brainstem pathologies, but they have rarely been explored among patients with vestibular neuritis.
Case Report: The current investigation included a case series highlighting mVEMP responses in addition to cVEMPs and oVEMPs in three patients diagnosed with vestibular neuritis. In the study, all three patients were found to have absent or diminished responses in cVEMPs, oVEMPs, and mVEMPs.
Conclusions: In the present study, the distinctions in cVEMP and oVEMP findings can be attributed to the involvement of inferior and superior vestibular nerve respectively. Furthermore, mVEMP presents a more intricate scenario, both in terms of its genesis and outcomes. This emphasizes the clinical relevance of mVEMP when used in combination with cVEMP and oVEMP, rather than as a substitute for the other VEMPs.

Objective: Acute unilateral peripheral vestibulopathy or vestibular neuritis (AUPV/VN) manifests as acute onset vertigo, often accompanied by nausea, vomiting, and moderate gait instability. It is suspected when vestibular hypofunction is documented on video-head impulse (video-HITs) and caloric tests in the presence of contralesionally beating horizontal-torsional nystagmus. Herein, we report patients presenting with acute vestibular syndrome (AVS) showing selective otolithic dysfunction in the presence of normal caloric and video-HITs and abnormal enhancement of the peripheral vestibular structures on MRI.

Among the various side-effects of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccinations, vestibular neuritis (VN) has been found to have some interesting association with the vaccinations. This paper mainly focuses on exploring different associations between COVID-19 vaccination and VN. A systematic search was conducted on electronic databases including PubMed, Google Scholar, and Cochrane using MeSH terms for case reports published until July 2023.

Objective: To evaluate the plasma levels of the otoconial proteins, otoconin-90 and otolin-1, in individuals diagnosed with vestibular neuritis (VN) and determine the feasibility of using these proteins as biomarkers for VN.
Methods: In this preliminary study, 30 patients diagnosed with VN and 70 healthy individuals were recruited and followed to confirm whether they had benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) during the following time. The recorded data included measurements of height, weight, and history of diabetes mellitus or hypertension.

Introduction: To date, no study has reported the various otologic conditions associated with COVID-19 using population-based design. The aim of this study was to investigate the incidence and risk of audio-vestibular disorders (benign paroxysmal positional vertigo, sudden sensorineural hearing loss, Meniere's disease, vestibular neuritis, and tinnitus) increase after COVID-19 infection.
Methods: This retrospective population-based study was conducted using National Health Insurance Service (NHIS)-COVID-19 cohort database of South Korea.
