PU¶PubMed·Journal article·Vestibular·7d agoSleep's influence on susceptibility to motion sickness in parabolic flights and virtual reality: An exploratory studyPreliminary and exploratory; audiologists managing vestibular patients should note the possible sleep–motion sickness link as hypothesis-generating only — no practice change is warranted until confirmatory studies are available.
PU¶PubMed·Journal article·Vestibular·10d agoSociodemographic bias in LLMs' clinical decision-making for dizzinessAudiologists and clinicians using AI decision-support tools for dizziness evaluation should be aware that LLM recommendations may vary by patient sociodemographic characteristics — independent validation of AI outputs is prudent before clinical reliance.＋Save

PU¶PubMed·Journal article·Vestibular·6w agoNeuroticism and functional burden in chronic dizziness: A clinical cross-sectional observational study using the Eysenck Model and Dizziness Handicap InventoryClinicians treating chronic dizziness patients should consider screening for high neuroticism, as it may independently predict greater functional disability and guide referral for psychological support — however, this cross-sectional design cannot confirm causation.＋Save
PU¶PubMed·Journal article·Vestibular·7w agoCross-cultural adaptation, validity, and reliability study of the Chinese version of the vestibular activities avoidance Instrument-9Audiologists treating Mandarin/Chinese-speaking patients with vestibular disorders now have a validated Chinese version of the VAAI-9 to assess activity avoidance behavior, which can inform rehabilitation planning.＋Save
