Continuous data are presented as mean ± SD values; categorical data are reported as percentage (number).
HSC, horizontal semicircular canal; ASC, anterior semicircular canal; PSC, posterior semicircular canal; PTA, pure-tone average; cVEMP, cervical vestibular-evoked myogenic potential; oVEMP, ocular vestibular-evoked myogenic potential.
