Development of the ocular motor system in mouse embryos
The ocular motor system enables organisms to move their eyes to obtain precise visual feedback. In humans, six extraocular muscles form an oppositional pulley system to mediate slow, smooth tracking events as well as fast saccades. Their movement is dependent on three cranial nerves: the …

Examining the Relationship Between State Anxiety and Vestibular and Ocular Motor Impairments and Symptoms in High School Athletes with Concussion
… has been associated with vestibular and ocular motor impairment in the general population. However, there is limited research regarding the connection between the vestibular and ocular motor systems and anxiety following sport-related concussion (SRC). OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study …

CLINICAL USEFULNESS OF OCULAR TESTS FOR DIAGNOSING CONCUSSIONS
Dysfunctions of ocular motor and binocular vision are some of the most commonly observed problems in patients with severe traumatic brain injury. Secondarily, subjective complaints of compromised vision and ocular motor functions are also sometimes reported in mild traumatic brain injuries (mTBI). …

Optimal Head Impact Signal Processing and the Description and Perception of Head Impact Exposure in Female Adolescent Ice Hockey Players
… exposure was correlated to symptom outcomes and ocular motor evaluation scores. Their sleep and menstrual cycle patterns were included as potential confounding factors. In this sample of athletes, sleep was more strongly associated with symptom presentation than head impact exposure. Ocular motor …

Dynamics and learning in recurrent neural networks
… to stabilize persistent neural activities in the ocular motor integrator. I study the connections between back-propagation and contrastive-Hebbian learning, and show how backpropagation could be equivalently implemented by contrastive-Hebbian learning in a layered network. I also propose a …

A molecular-genetic study of Congenital Nystagmus
… is known about the underlying mechanisms of ocular-motor control. Similarly, the pathophysiological mechanisms underpinning nystagmus is also poorly understood. By studying pedigrees in whom nystagmus seems to be inherited as an isolated trait (Congenital Idiopathic Nystagmus), it may be …

The effect of vergence vision training on binocularly normal subjects
… of vision therapy for children with the binocular dysfunction known as convergence insufficiency is 73%. However, it is unknown whether binocularly normal persons will have any significant change to their vergence ocular motor system if they participate in vision training sessions. A total …

The Biomechanical Response of the Eye, Face, and Orbit to Primary Blast Overpressure
… the physiological response of the brain and ocular motor system to blast exposure. Ultimately, the experimental methods and analysis techniques disseminated herein serve as a framework for future experimental work related to blast and other high-rate loading scenarios.

Influence of ADHD and Concussion History on Vestibular-Oculomotor Performance and Recovery Time in NCAA Division I Athletes with Sport-Related Concussion
… can result in impairments in vestibular and oculomotor function, which are commonly assessed using the Vestibular Ocular Motor Screening (VOMS). Individual health factors such as attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and prior concussion history have been proposed as potential modifiers …

Sensory integration: analyses of patterns of dysfunction and clinical application with children with mild disabilities
… Somatopraxis; (d) Visuopraxis; and (e) Postural-ocular-motor patterns. An existing data base including the scores of 10,475 children was used in the analyses, along with a sub-group of 995 children with LD. Using LISREL 8 (linear structural relations; Joreskog & Sorbom, 1993), CFA of the …

Evaluating the Effects of Cardiorespiratory Fitness Level and Gender on Outcomes of the Buffalo Concussion Bike Test
… Symptom Scale (PCSS) and the Vestibular/Ocular Motor Screening (VOMS) immediately before and after the BCBT. </p> <p>Results: Participants in the HIGH CRF group exhibited longer times-to-test completion (U = 15.00, p <.001) and had lower heart rates across the first four stages of the …
