Screening methods for age-related hearing loss in older patients with cancer: A review of the literature [PDF]

, 2018
© 2018 by the authors. As people grow older, they may experience loss in hearing sensitivity. Age-related hearing loss may negatively affect the patient's quality of life as it may lead to social isolation. In older patients with cancer, hearing loss can

Factors underlying masking release by voice-gender differences and spatial separation cues in multi-talker listening environments in listeners with and without hearing loss

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2022
Voice-gender differences and spatial separation are important cues for auditory object segregation. The goal of this study was to investigate the relationship of voice-gender difference benefit to the breadth of binaural pitch fusion, the perceptual ...

Sensory and motor correlates of frailty: dissociation between frailty phenotype and frailty index

BMC Geriatrics, 2022
Background Frailty has been associated with a decline in sensory and motor function. However, given that different frailty measures were shown to overlap but also differ in their diagnostic properties, sensory and motor correlates of frailty might be ...

Clinical comparison of two automated audiometry procedures

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2022
ObjectiveAutomated pure-tone audiometry has been shown to provide similar hearing threshold estimates to conventional audiometry, but lower correlations were reported at high and low frequencies in audiometric tests than those of manual tests, while the ...

Heschl's gyrus is more sensitive to tone level than non-primary auditory cortex [PDF]

, 2002
Previous neuroimaging studies generally demonstrate a growth in the cortical response with an increase in sound level. However, the details of the shape and topographic location of such growth remain largely unknown.

The Just-Noticeable Difference in Speech-to-Noise Ratio

Trends in Hearing, 2015
Just-noticeable differences (JNDs) have been measured for various features of sounds, but despite its importance to communication, there is no benchmark for what is a just-noticeable—and possibly meaningful—difference in speech-to-noise ratio (SNR).
