Abstract
BACKGROUND Geographical location is known to affect health outcomes; however, evidence regarding whether location affects healthcare for persons suspected to have vestibular dysfunction is lacking. OBJECTIVE To investigate whether location affects healthcare seeking and outcomes for adults with symptoms of vestibular pathology. METHODS We assessed for regional disparities associated with demographics, diagnosis, chronological factors, and financial expenditures from Americans who participated in the Vestibular Disorders Association registry (N = 905, 57.4±12.5 years, 82.7% female, 94.8% White, and 8.1% Hispanic or Latino). Respondents were grouped per geographical regions defined by the United States Census Bureau. RESULTS There were no significant between-region differences for age (p = 0.10), sex (p = 0.78), or ethnicity (p = 0.24). There were more Asian respondents in the West versus the Midwest (p = 0.05) and more Black respondents in the South versus the West (p = 0.05). The time to first seek care was shorter in the Northeast (17.3 [SD = 49.5] weeks) versus the South (42.4 [SD = 83.7] weeks), p = 0.015. The time from the first healthcare visit to receiving a final diagnosis was shorter in the Northeast (46.5 [SD = 75.4] weeks) versus the South (68.9 [SD = 89.7] weeks), p = 0.015. Compared to the Midwest, fewer respondents in the Northeast reported "no" out-of-pocket financial impact, p = 0.039. CONCLUSIONS Geographical location affects healthcare seeking and outcomes for persons suspected to have vestibular dysfunction.

Abstract
HYPOTHESIS The vertical vestibuloocular reflex (VOR) in response to pitch head impulses can be optimally trained to increase in one direction using a two-dimensional (2D) visual training target with minimal effect on the horizontal VOR. BACKGROUND We modified the incremental VOR adaptation (IVA) technique, shown to increase the horizontal VOR in patients with vestibular hypofunction, to drive vertical VOR adaptation in healthy control subjects. METHODS We measured the horizontal and vertical active (self-generated) and passive (imposed) head impulse VOR gains (eye velocity/head velocity) before and after 15 minutes of unidirectional downward IVA training. IVA training consisted of two sessions, one using a single-dot one-dimensional (1D) target, the other a grid-of-dots 2D target. RESULTS The downward head impulse VOR gain significantly increased because of training by 13.3%, whereas the upward VOR gain did not change. The addition of extraretinal (2D) feedback did not result in greater adaptation, i.e., 1D and 2D gain increases were 15.5% and 10.6%, respectively. The vertical VOR gain increase resulted in a 3.2% decrease in horizontal VOR gain. CONCLUSION This preliminary study is the first to show that physiologically relevant (high frequency) unidirectional increases in vertical VOR gain are possible with just 15 minutes of training. This study sets the basis for future clinical trials examining vertical IVA training in patients, which may provide the first practical rehabilitation treatment to functionally improve the vertical VOR.

Abstract
Purpose To examine perceptual adaptation when people wear spectacles that produce unequal retinal image magnification. Methods Two groups of 15 participants (10 male; mean age 25.6 ± 4.9 years) wore spectacles with a 3.8% horizontal magnifier over one eye. The continuous-wear group wore the spectacles for 5 hours straight. The intermittent-wear group wore them for five 1-hour intervals. To measure slant and shape distortions produced by the spectacles, participants adjusted visual stimuli until they appeared frontoparallel or equiangular, respectively. Adaptation was quantified as the difference in responses at the beginning and end of wearing the spectacles. Aftereffects were quantified as the difference before and after removing the spectacles. We hypothesized that intermittent wear may lead to visual cue reweighting, so we fit a cue combination model to the data and examined changes in weights given to perspective and binocular disparity slant cues. Results Both groups experienced significant shape adaptation and aftereffects. The continuous-wear group underwent significant slant adaptation and the intermittent group did not, but there was no significant difference between groups, suggesting that the difference in adaptation was negligible. There was no evidence for cue reweighting in the intermittent wear group, but unexpectedly, the weight given to binocular disparity cues for slant increased significantly in the continuous-wear group. Conclusions We did not find strong evidence that adaptation to spatial distortions differed between the two groups. However, there may be differences in the cue weighting strategies employed when spectacles are worn intermittently or continuously.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE This was a double-blinded randomized controlled study to investigate the effects of once-daily incremental vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) training over 1 week in people with chronic peripheral vestibular hypofunction. METHODS A total of 24 patients with peripheral vestibular hypofunction were randomly assigned to intervention (n = 13) or control (n = 11) groups. Training consisted of either x1 (control) or incremental VOR adaptation exercises, delivered once daily for 15 minutes over 4 days in 1 week. Primary outcome: VOR gain with video-oculography. Secondary outcomes: Compensatory saccades measured using scleral search coils, dynamic visual acuity, static balance, gait, and subjective symptoms. Between-group differences were analyzed with a linear mixed-model with repeated measures. RESULTS There was a difference in the VOR gain increase between groups (P < 0.05). The incremental training group gain increased during active (13.4% ± 16.3%) and passive (12.1% ± 19.9%) head impulse testing (P < 0.02), whereas it did not for the control group (P = 0.59). The control group had reduced compensatory saccade latency (P < 0.02). Both groups had similarly improved dynamic visual acuity scores (P < 0.05). Both groups had improved dynamic gait index scores (P < 0.002); however, only the incremental group had improved scores for the 2 walks involving head oscillations at approximately 2 Hz (horizontal: P < 0.05; vertical: P < 0.02), increased gait speed (P < 0.02), and step length (P < 0.01) during normal gait, and improved total Dizziness Handicap Inventory (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Our results suggest incremental VOR adaptation significantly improves gain, gait with head rotation, balance during gait, and symptoms in patients with chronic peripheral vestibular hypofunction more so than conventional x1 gaze-stabilizing exercises.Video Abstract available for more insights from the authors (see the Video, Supplemental Digital Content 1, available at: http://links.lww.com/JNPT/A336).

Abstract
BACKGROUND The gain (eye-velocity/head-velocity) of the angular vestibuloocular reflex (aVOR) during head impulses can be increased while viewing near-targets and when exposed to unilateral, incremental retinal image velocity error signals. It is not clear however, whether the tonic or phasic vestibular pathways mediate these gain increases. OBJECTIVE Determine whether a shared pathway is responsible for gain enhancement between vergence and adaptation of aVOR gain in patients with unilateral vestibular hypofunction (UVH). MATERIAL AND METHODS 20 patients with UVH were examined for change in aVOR gain during a vergence task and after 15-minutes of ipsilesional incremental VOR adaptation (uIVA) using StableEyes (a device that controls a laser target as a function of head velocity) during horizontal passive head impulses. A 5 % aVOR gain increase was defined as the threshold for significant change. RESULTS 11/20 patients had >5% vergence-mediated gain increase during ipsi-lesional impulses. For uIVA, 10/20 patients had >5% ipsi-lesional gain increase. There was no correlation between the vergence-mediated gain increase and gain increase after uIVA training. CONCLUSION Vergence-enhanced and uIVA training gain increases are mediated by separate mechanisms and/or vestibular pathways (tonic/phasic). The ability to increase the aVOR gain during vergence is not prognostic for successful adaptation training.

Abstract
The vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) maintains stable vision during rapid head rotations by rotating the eyes in the opposite direction to the head. The latency between onset of the head rotation and onset of the eye rotation is 5-8 ms in healthy humans. However, VOR latency can be 3-4 times larger in patients treated with intra-tympanic gentamicin. A prior study showed that latency can be trained with head rotations at 0.2 Hz. We sought to determine how the VOR is affected when a delay between vestibular and visual stimuli is added during adaptation training with high-frequency head rotations (impulses), where the VOR is the main vision-stabilizing system. Using a variant of the incremental VOR adaptation technique, the delay between head rotation onset and movement onset of a visual target was gradually increased. With this training, the instantaneous VOR gain demand (= target/head velocity) varied from less than unity to greater than unity during each head impulse, albeit in a consistent and repeatable way. We measured the active and passive VOR gain and latency before and after VOR adaptation training in healthy normal subjects. There was no significant change in VOR latency across subjects; however, there was a significant decrease in VOR gain of - 6.0 ± 4.5%. These data suggest that during high-frequency head rotations delay/latency is interpreted as a changing instantaneous VOR gain demand. Although the gain demand in this study had a complex trajectory, adaptation was evident with the VOR seeming to use an average of the instantaneous gain demand.

Abstract
The vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) is the only system that maintains stable vision during rapid head rotations. The VOR gain (eye/head velocity) can be trained to increase using a vestibular-visual mismatch stimulus. We sought to determine whether low-frequency (sinusoidal) head rotation during training leads to changes in the VOR during high-frequency head rotation testing, where the VOR is more physiologically relevant. We tested eight normal subjects over three sessions. For training protocol 1, subjects performed active sinusoidal head rotations at 1.3 Hz while tracking a laser target, whose velocity incrementally increased relative to head velocity so that the VOR gain required to stabilize the target went from 1.1 to 2 over 15 min. Protocol 2 was the same as protocol 1, except that head rotations were at 0.5 Hz. For protocol 3, head rotation frequency incrementally increased from 0.5 to 2 Hz over 15 min, while the VOR gain required to stabilize the target was kept at 2. We measured the active and passive, sinusoidal (1.3Hz) and head impulse VOR gains before and after each protocol. Sinusoidal and head impulse VOR gains increased in protocols 1 and 3; however, although the sinusoidal VOR gain increase was ~20%, the related head impulse gain increase was only ~10%. Protocol 2 resulted in no-gain adaptation. These data show human VOR adaptation is frequency selective, suggesting that if one seeks to increase the higher-frequency VOR response, i.e., where it is physiologically most relevant, then higher-frequency head movements are required during training, e.g., head impulses.NEW & NOTEWORTHY This study shows that human vestibulo-ocular reflex adaptation is frequency selective at frequencies >0.3 Hz. The VOR in response to mid- (1.3 Hz) and high-frequency (impulse) head rotations were measured before and after mid-frequency sinusoidal VOR adaptation training, revealing that the mid-frequency gain change was higher than high-frequency gain change. Thus, if one seeks to increase the higher-frequency VOR response, where it is physiologically most relevant, then higher-frequency head movements are required during training.

Abstract
This is a review summarizing the development of vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) adaptation behavior with relevance to rehabilitation over the last 10 years and examines VOR adaptation using head-on-body rotations, specifically the influence of training target contrast, position and velocity error signal, active vs. passive head rotations, and sinusoidal vs. head impulse rotations. This review discusses optimization of the single VOR adaptation training session, consolidation between repeated training sessions, and dynamic incremental VOR adaptation. Also considered are the effects of aging and the roles of the efferent vestibular system, cerebellum, and otoliths on angular VOR adaptation. Finally, this review examines VOR adaptation findings in studies using whole body rotations.

Abstract
Introduction: Vestibular dysfunction is a common disorder that results in debilitating symptoms. Even after full compensation, the vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) could be further improved by using rehabilitation exercises and visual-vestibular adaptation. We hypothesized that in patients with asymmetric vestibular function, the system could be rebalanced by unidirectional rotations toward the weaker side (i.e., a pure vestibular stimulation). Methods: Sixteen subjects (5 female and 11 male, 43.2 ± 17.0 years old) with chronic vestibular dysfunction that was non-responsive to other types of medical treatment were recruited for the study (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT01080430). Subjects had VOR asymmetry quantified by an abnormal directional preponderance (DP) with rotation test and no previous history of central vestibular problems or fluctuating peripheral vestibular disorders. They participated either in the short-term study (one session) or the long-term study (7 visits over 5 weeks). Rehabilitation consisted of five trapezoid unidirectional rotations (peak velocity of 320°/s) toward the weaker side. Care was taken to slowly stop the rotation in order to avoid stimulation in the opposite direction during deceleration. To study the short-term effect, VOR responses were measured before and 10, 40, and 70 min after a single unidirectional rotational rehabilitation session. For long-term effects, the VOR gain was measured before and 70min after rehabilitation in each session. Results: We observed a significant decrease in VOR asymmetry even 10 min after one rehabilitation session (short-term study). With consecutive rehabilitation sessions in the long-term study, DP further decreased to reach normal values during the first 2 sessions and only one subjects required further rehabilitation after week 4. This change in DP was due to an increase in responses during rotations toward the weaker side and a decrease in VOR responses during rotations in the other direction. Conclusion: Our results show that unidirectional rotation can reduce the VOR imbalance and asymmetry in patients with previously compensated vestibular dysfunction and could be used as an effective supervised method for vestibular rehabilitation even in patients with longstanding vestibular dysfunction.
