Research Summary
A recent study published in the Journal of Vestibular Research examines the ocular vestibular evoked myogenic potential (oVEMP) in patients with superior canal dehiscence (SCD) and vestibular migraine (VM). Researchers investigated the n1 peak's behavior, which is typically enlarged in these conditions. They studied 14 patients with SCD, 20 with SCD and classical migraine, 26 with VM, and 20 with VM and enlarged n1 peaks, compared to 49 healthy volunteers. Results showed SCD patients had the largest peaks, while VM patients exhibited more later peaks, suggesting central processes like reduced habituation might enhance oscillation in VM cases.
