UNASSIGNED: Behavioral studies in rodents and @entity1 have demonstrated @entity2414 and orientation in @entity177 ( @entity177 ). Our aim was to explore the functional consequences of @entity454 on different cognitive domains including spatial as well as non-spatial cognitive abilities. Sixteen @entity1 with a @entity177 ( @entity177 ), 18 @entity1 with a @entity177 , and 17 @entity23 ( @entity23 ) participated in the study. To assess the cognitive domains of short-term memory, executive function, processing speed and visuospatial abilities the following tests were used: Theory of Visual Attention (TVA), TAP Alertness and Visual Scanning, the Stroop Color-Word, and the Corsi Block Tapping Test. The cognitive scores were correlated with the degree of @entity394 and the duration of the disease, respectively. Groups did not differ significantly in age, sex, or handedness. @entity177 @entity1 were significantly impaired in all of the examined cognitive domains but not in all tests of the particular domain, whereas @entity177 @entity1 exhibited @entity73 in their visuospatial abilities and in one of the two processing speed tasks when compared independently with @entity23 . The degree of @entity394 significantly correlated with some of the cognitive scores. Neither the side of the lesion nor the duration of disease influenced cognitive performance. The results demonstrate that vestibular failure can lead to @entity73 beyond the spatial navigation deficits described earlier. These @entity73 are more significant in @entity177 @entity1 , suggesting that the input from one labyrinth which is distributed into bilateral vestibular circuits is sufficient to maintain most of the cognitive functions. These results raise the question whether @entity177 @entity1 may profit from specific cognitive training in addition to physiotherapy.
