This review paper examines neurologic bases of links between balance control and anxiety
based upon neural circuits that are shared by pathways that mediate autonomic control …

This communication provides an update of our understanding of the neurological bases for
the close association between balance control and anxiety. New data suggest that a …

This paper reviews the evidence that provides the basis for a functional neuroanatomy of
anxiety and fear. The afferent arm of the anxiety circuit includes the exteroceptive sensory …

Previous studies have shown that anxiety and balance disorders could be related; however,
the association between psychological processes and equilibrium remains ambiguous. In …

The discipline of affective neuroscience is concerned with the neural bases of emotion and
mood. The past decades have witnessed an explosion of research in affective neuroscience …

Fear and anxiety are adaptive responses but if left unregulated, or inappropriately regulated,
they become biologically and socially maladaptive. Dysregulated emotions are manifest in a …

When the basic survival mechanism of fear goes awry, the result is often an anxiety disorder.
The activation and modulation of the fear system in animals and humans has thus been an …

The ventral hippocampus (vHPC), medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC), and basolateral
amygdala (BLA) are each required for the expression of anxiety-like behavior. Yet the role of …

Anxiety is a complex emotional state associated with sustained heightened autonomic and
behavioral arousal and an increase in avoidance behavior. Anxiety-related behavior is a …

Anxiety is a commonly experienced subjective state that can have both adaptive and
maladaptive properties. Clinical disorders of anxiety are likewise also common, and range …
