Outline of Final Research Achievements

We examined the psychological effects of otolith dysfunction on emotions. It was revealed that otolith vertigo has a stronger tendency for anxiety but less tendency for depression than another vestibular disorders. The anxiety tendency was not related to the actual body unsteadiness. This suggests that otolith dysfunction may have some direct effect on anxiety tendencies.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

超高齢化社会、ストレス社会において、めまいと不安を訴える患者が増えており、それぞれ対応が難しい。本研究の結果は、これらについてそれぞれ独立して治療を行うのではなく、リンクした治療が必要であることを示唆する。
