[Central nystagmus and its interaction with optokinetic and reversive postoptokinetic nystagmus]
Abstract:
In rabbits, the interaction of central nystagmus (CN) with optokinetic (OKN) or reversive postoptokinetic (RPN) nystagmi (irrespective of their direction) resulted in their inhibition. Cessation of electric stimulation led to restoration of OKN or RPN. Coincidence of CN with OKN or RPN in the direction led to a considerable shortening of the period from the moment of electric stimulation till the resulting rhythmic nystagmus, as well as till the rhythmic OKN or RPN.
