I know that cold stimulation will cause abduction of the ipsilateral eye in MLF syndrome patient with no nystagmus. Can anybody explain why no nystagmus?

I attempted to explain it with cortex-pprf-MLF pathway. However, my conclusion is that the contralateral eye will have lateral nystagmus. Maybe this nystagmus in carolic test isn't mediated by this pathway.
