In the second trip, lipids were most intensively utilized: lipolysis enhanced and free fatty acids declined. This was also indicated by an increase of the capillary-venous difference in terms of the total fraction of LDL and VLDL as well as free fatty acids. At the end of the second trip, the positive capillary-venous difference in terms of LDL and VLDL and, accordingly, the negative capillary-venous difference in terms of HDL2 and HDL3 increased.

It was found that: 1) the result of canal-otolith interaction was not directly related to the pattern of changes of otolith afferentation but was determined by the ratio of otolith afferent signals in the right and left labyrinths and, consequently, by the ratio of patterns of activities in the CNS paired structures that receive otolith afferentation; 2) the same result of interaction (enhancement or attenuation of vestibular responses) can be achieved through both increase or decrease of otolith afferentation; 3) if joint stimulation of semicircular canals and otolith organs induces asymmetry of neuronal activities of paired brain structures that perceive otolith afferentation, then, irrespective of the mechanism of origin of this asymmetry, it is followed by changes of oppositely directed nystagmus of different sign (increase for one nystagmus and decrease for the other).
