Nystagmus, characterized by involuntary eye movements, can arise from several causes, with benign paroxysmal positional vertigo being the most prevalent. Additionally, central lesions such as tumors may also induce nystagmus. This case report describes the amelioration of vertical nystagmus in a patient with advanced glioma after treatment with the GABAergic drug baclofen.

Objective: To explore alterations in functional connectivity (FC) focusing on hippocampal subfields in benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) patients with residual dizziness (RD) after successful canalith repositioning procedure (CRP).
Methods: We conducted resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) on 95 BPPV patients, comprising 50 patients with RD and 45 without. Seed-to-voxel and seed-to-seed analyses were employed to examine changes in FC between the two groups.

: Skull vibration-induced nystagmus (SVIN) has become a validated tool for evaluating the vestibular function. The presence of SVIN is a useful indicator of the asymmetry of vestibular function between the two ears. In unilateral vestibular loss, a 100 Hz bone-conducted vibration given to either mastoid immediately causes a primarily horizontal nystagmus.

Unilateral vestibular hypofunction (UVH) in cases of insufficient central nervous system compensation leads to chronic dizziness. A customized vestibular rehabilitation (VR) program is more beneficial than a generic set of exercises for patients with chronic UVH. The purpose of the present study is to compare a customized remotely supervised VR program with a customized unsupervised VR program in chronic UVH patients.

Purpose: Sarcoidosis, a multi-organ granulomatous disease, occasionally involves the nervous system, presenting as neurosarcoidosis. The following case demonstrates a potential association between COVID-19 and brain and spinal cord injury mimicking neurosarcoidosis.
Case Description: A 51-year-old woman presented with persistent holocranial headache, nausea, vertigo, and neurological deficits one month after a COVID-19 hospitalization.

Purpose: To examine alterations in Blood Oxygen Level-Dependent (BOLD) resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI) signals, utilizing regional homogeneity (ReHo) and fractional amplitude of low-frequency fluctuation (fALFF) metrics, within activated brain regions. Additionally, this study aims to explore the relationship between these neural changes and clinical characteristics, as well as emotional states, in patients diagnosed with unilateral Meniere's disease (MD).
Method: The study included 24 patients diagnosed with left Meniere's disease (L-MD), 25 patients diagnosed with right Meniere's disease (R-MD), and 23 healthy control subjects.

Objectives: The first purpose of this study was to ascertain the distribution of unilateral Ménière's disease (MD) clinical subgroups in China and compare with the population reported in Europe and the United States. The second purpose was to investigate the effectiveness in different clinical phenotypes.
Methods: Participants were categorised into one of five subtypes using a previously reported classification scheme based on cluster analysis.

Vestibular syncope is a rare condition in which vertigo may cause syncopal attacks; however, the term has been associated with confusion because it has been ascribed to completely different vestibular and neurological conditions, from dizziness to Menière disease (MD), to the neurovegetative symptoms in benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) and central vertebrobasilar hyperfusion. A 75-year-old woman with vasodepressive vasovagal syncope, confirmed by a tilt test with trinitrine administration, was referred for an audiological and vestibular assessment showing an acute unilateral peripheral vestibular deficit on the right side. The diagnosis is peripheral acute vestibular deficits.

This study aims to establish a set of normal values for the objective evaluation of ocular movements using videonystagmography (VNG). Thirty individuals aged between 18 and 50 years, with no history of vestibular symptoms, recurrent headaches, central nervous system (CNS) symptoms, or cochlear symptoms, were selected. The assessment of five types of ocular movements (saccades, pursuit, optokinetic tests, spontaneous nystagmus, and gaze tests) were conducted using VNG.

Introduction And Importance: The inner ear is considered an 'end organ' since its vascular supply comes from one terminal artery, making the labyrinth especially vulnerable to ischemia, causing loss of auditory and vestibular function with variable clinical patterns according to the different arterial distribution in the inner ear and which vascular branches are concerned by the embolism.
Case Presentation: We report a misleading case of central vascular vertigo caused by a labyrinthine infarction resulting from an embolic vertebral artery, which manifested in a typical peripheral clinical presentation mimicking a vestibular neuritis.
Clinical Discussion: Vertigo is the result of asymmetrical responses from the vestibules of both ears resulting from any disruption along the complex vestibular pathways, whether peripheral or central.

Vertigo (or dizziness) is one of the most common symptoms in clinical practice. The misdiagnosis rate of vertigo diseases is high due to the factors that vertigo disorders involve multiple systems and organs throughout the body with a wide range of pathogenesis, and different kind of vertigo diseases often present with overlapping clinical presentation. In recent years, scholars have conducted many explorations in the diagnosis model of vertigo disorders, the identification model of high-risk central vertigo, or the combination of diagnostic tests such as the TiTrATE diagnostic model for vertigo disorders (Newman-Toker and Edlow, 2015), the ATTEST differential diagnosis model for acute vertigo (Gurley and Edlow, 2019); the application of the ABCD2 score to assess the risk of high-risk vertigo (Navi et al, 2012), and the "TriAGe+" score to assess the risk of stroke in vertigo patients (Kuroda et al, 2017); HINTS battery (Kattah et al, 2009), HINTS+ battery (Newman-Toker et al, 2013), and STANDING battery (Vanni et al, 2014) for acute serious vestibular disorders.

Background: After a stroke many people experience hemiparesis, resulting in walking difficulties which affects independence, mobility, and participation in activities of daily living. Activating the nociceptive withdrawal reflex (NWR) during gait training aims to support the initiation and facilitation of the swing phase of the paretic leg. The aim of this review is to investigate the orthotic and therapeutic effects of a NWR stimulation intervention to improve gait in patients after a stroke.

Background: CLCN2-related leukoencephalopathy (CC2L) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder caused by biallelic variants of CLCN2, which encodes chloride channel 2. Although CC2L is associated with distinct radiological features, it presents with a wide range of clinical features.
Case Presentation: A 34-year-old woman presented to our hospital with a sudden onset of vertigo with headache.

Potassium channel mutations play an important role in neurological diseases, such as spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA). SCA is a heterogeneous autosomal-dominant neurodegenerative disorder with multiple sub-entities, such as SCA13, which is characterized by mutations in the voltage-gated potassium channel Kv3.3 ().
