Does Herpes Virus Reactivation Affect Prognosis in Idiopathic Sudden Sensorineural Hearing Loss? [PDF]
Objectives Several etiologies have been proposed to underlie idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss (ISSNHL), including viral infection, vascular disturbance, and immune-mediated mechanisms. However, none of these mechanisms are conclusive.

Expert validation of prediction models for a clinical decision-support system in audiology
For supporting clinical decision-making in audiology, Common Audiological Functional Parameters (CAFPAs) were suggested as an interpretable intermediate representation of audiological information taken from various diagnostic sources within a clinical ...

Brainstem Auditory Evoked Potentials in Uncontrolled Diabetes Mellitus with and without Complications [PDF]
Introduction: Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder known to affect all body systems especially neurons, retina and kidneys. Peripheral neuropathy has been widely studied but the exploration of central neurons is limited.

Experimental Determination of the Masking Threshold for Tonal Powertrain Noise in Electric Vehicles
Tonal powertrain noise can have a strong negative impact on vehicle sound quality. Therefore, an assessment of the perceptibility of tonal noise with respect to masking noise is essential for the vehicle development process.

The psychophysics of absolute threshold and signal duration: A probabilistic approach [PDF]
The absolute threshold for a tone depends on its duration; longer tones have lower thresholds. This effect has traditionally been explained in terms of ?temporal integration? involving the summation of energy or perceptual information over time.

Perceptual thresholds for the effects of room modes as a function of modal decay [PDF]
Room modes cause audible artefacts in listening environments. Modal control approaches have emerged in scientific literature over the years and, often, their performance is measured by criteria that may be perceptually unfounded.

Development and Current Status of the “Cambridge” Loudness Models
This article reviews the evolution of a series of models of loudness developed in Cambridge, UK. The first model, applicable to stationary sounds, was based on modifications of the model developed by Zwicker, including the introduction of a filter to ...
