Modulation of human vestibular reflexes with increased postural threat

摘要: Key points The vestibular system is an important sensory contributor to the control of standing balance. Fear, anxiety and arousal are thought influence excitability system, but it not clear if these changes lead altered vestibular-evoked balance reflexes. Low high surface heights were used manipulate fear in this study, while stochastic stimulation was evoke High greater coupling between inputs reflexes, as well larger responses. These results support idea that manner which information processed when people exposed a threat their balance, processing may explain why normal behaviour different threatening scenarios.
