NCEP has placed Earth's average temperature yesterday as the hottest single day thus far measured by humans.
This is driven by the combination of El Niño on top of global warming, and we may well see a few even warmer days over the next 6 weeks.

Excited to share the following publication. An important message (we think!) about the evolution of signs in patients with acute vertigo: thelancet.com/journals/laneu…

"Our vestibular system operates a bit like a stereo, with our left and right ears sending separate signals to our brain. They need to send precisely the same information for us to remain balanced." Great article!
Article on #Vertigo, interviewing two of our expert neurologists in Melbourne. Didn’t leave out Migraine, fortunately. theage.com.au/lifestyle/heal…
The best reason to publish your data with publications: for your future self in 5-years. At least you'll know where to find the canonical dataset!

ALT Left and center images: Axial brain MRI demonstrates diffusion restriction with apparent diffusion coefficient correlate in the right superior vermis (noted with arrows), consistent with acute ischemic infarct. Right image: Chest CT angiography reveals a 12 × 7 mm contrast outpouching (noted with arrow) arising from the lateral wall of the aorta at the proximal graft anastomosis, consistent with pseudoaneurysm.

Outstanding histopathological endeavor to find that Otolith Membrane Herniation, not Semicircular Canal Duct Dilation impacts the caloric response in MD patients - check Shen et al. @JohnsHopkins rdcu.be/c2lXF
Your regular reminder than hearing loss is the #1 modifiable risk factor for cognition loss.
Protect your hearing like you protect your seeing. If you can use use sunglasses in bright light, you can use ear plugs in loud places.
Thrilled to see this impactful study published today in @JAMA_current! Summed perfectly below by @NickSReed.
#Hearingloss is associated with higher prevalence of #dementia in older adults in the @NHATS_NSOC dataset. Dementia prevalence is lower among hearing aid users.
Histology from @hopkins_ent and @MassEyeAndEar
found evidence that otolith membrane herniation is associated with decreased caloric responses in Ménière’s Disease, but no evidence of canal duct dilation. Lead by @LeoLShen & @WardensMD

Fluid mechanics show that reducing the SCC duct diameter disproportionately attenuates low velocity flow (like thermal stimulus) but not high velocity flow (like head impulse), thus cupula position deflection.

The real reason we have otoliths: dancing.
Low frequency sound is processed via vibrotactile and vestibular (in addition to auditory) pathways, and stimulation of these non-auditory modalities in the context of music can increase ratings of groove (the pleasurable urge to move to music). cell.com/current-biology/ful…
