“…With respect to a different sensory classification schema proprioception is not restricted to interoception (as assumed by some) but connects task-dependent interoception and exteroception. Thus, the often-used term “proprioceptive cervical vertigo” ( 34 ) should not be confused with a disorder of simply the cervical muscle sense but refers to the impaired functional achievement of a multisensory ensemble in which somatosensory, vestibular, and visual cues play an important role ( 35 ). In other words, structural and functional sensory convergence makes classification difficult.…”

Human senses and sensors from Aristotle to the present

This historical review on the semantic evolution of human senses and sensors revealed that Aristotle’s list of the five senses sight, hearing, touch, taste, and smell is still in use among non-scientific lay persons. It is no surprise that his classification in the work “De Anima” (On the Soul) from 350 BC confuses the sensor “touch” with the now more comprehensively defined somatosensory system and that senses are missing such as the later discovered vestibular system and the musculotendinous proprioception of the position of parts of the body in space. However, it is surprising that in the three most influential ancient cultures, Egypt, Greece, and China—which shaped the history of civilization—the concept prevailed that the heart rather than the brain processes perception, cognition, and emotions. This “cardiocentric view” can be traced back to the “Doctrine of Aristotle,” the “Book of the Dead” in ancient Egypt, and the traditional Chinese medicine of correspondence documented in the book “Huang di Neijing.” In Greek antiquity the philosophers Empedocles, Democritus and Aristotle were proponents of the allocation of the spirit and the soul to the heart connected to the body via the blood vessels. Opponents were the pre-Socratic mathematician Pythagoras, the philosopher Plato, and especially the Greek physician Hippocrates who regarded the brain as the most powerful organ in humans in his work “De Morbo Sacro.” The Greek physician Galen of Pergamon further elaborated on the concept of the brain (“cephalocentric hypothesis”) connected to the body by a network of nerves. The fundamental concepts for understanding functions and disorders of the vestibular system, the perception of self-motion, verticality and balance control were laid by a remarkable group of 19th century scientists including Purkynӗ, Mach, Breuer, Helmholtz, and Crum-Brown. It was also in the 19th century that Bell described a new sense of a reciprocal sensorimotor loop between the brain and the muscles which he called “muscular sense,” later termed “kinaesthesia” by Bastian and defined in 1906 as “proprioception” by Sherrington as “the perception of joint and body movements as well as position of the body or body segments, in space.” Both, the vestibular system and proprioception could be acknowledged as senses six or seven. However, we hesitate to recommend “pain”—which is variously assigned to the somatosensory system or extero-, intero-, visceroception—as a separate sensory system. Pain sensors are often not specific but have multisensory functions. Because of this inconsistent, partly contradictory classification even by experts in the current literature on senses and sensors we consider it justified to recommend a comprehensive reorganization of classification features according to the present state of knowledge with an expansion of the number of senses. Such a project has also to include the frequent task-dependent multisensory interactions for perceptual and sensorimotor achievements, and higher functions or disorders of the visual and vestibular systems as soon as cognition or emotions come into play. This requires a cooperation of sensory physiologists, neuroscientists and experienced physicians involved in the management of patients with sensory and multisensory disorders.

“…The rehabilitative approach following peripheral vestibular impairment is based on studies detailing the alteration of vestibular function in cohorts without prior disorders [ 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 ]. However, epidemiology reports a non-negligible proportion of progressive peripheral impairments subject to compensatory processes that influence therapeutic application [ 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 ]. The outcomes of interventions in vestibular rehabilitation therapy (VRT) are thus more nuanced [ 2 ].…”

This study delves into the absence of prognostic or predictive markers to guide rehabilitation in patients afflicted with vestibular schwannomas. The objective is to analyze the reweighting of subjective and instrumental indicators following surgery, at 7 days and 1 month postoperatively. This retrospective cohort encompasses 32 patients who underwent unilateral vestibular schwannoma surgery at the Marseille University Hospital between 2014 and 2019. Variations in 54 indicators and their adherence to available norms are calculated. After 1 month, one-third of patients do not regain the norm for all indicators. However, the rates of variation unveil specific responses linked to a preoperative error signal, stemming from years of tumor adaptation. This adaptation is reflected in a postoperative visual or proprioceptive preference for certain patients. Further studies are needed to clarify error signals according to lesion types. The approach based on variations in normative indicators appears relevant for post-surgical monitoring and physiotherapy.

“…Two other papers deal with debatable clinical problems, giving light to a better understanding of them. In the first, Gill-Lussier et al carried out a scoping review of proprioceptive cervicogenic dizziness [ 6 ], showing how heterogeneous this concept is regarding etiology, differential diagnosis, measurement, and treatment, also providing a good characterization for further studies. In the second, Idriss et al have shown the intriguing place of the narrow internal auditory canal in pediatric vestibular paroxysmia [ 7 ]; both are unusual conditions in the studied population, and the authors direct some remarks to the methodology of imaging to obtain an adequate result.…”
