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

open access: yes, 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

open access: yesFrontiers 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 ...

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

open access: yes, 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.

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

open access: yesBMC 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

open access: yesFrontiers 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 ...

Application of Big Data to Support Evidence-Based Public Health Policy Decision-Making for Hearing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Ideally, public health policies are formulated from scientific data; however, policy-specific data are often unavailable. Big data can generate ecologically-valid, high-quality scientific evidence, and therefore has the potential to change how public ...

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

open access: yesTrends 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).

The role of external broadcasting in a closed political system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
This article investigates the role and impact of external broadcasting (radio and television) on a closed political system, through the example of the two post-war German states: the West German Federal Republic of Germany (FRG) and the East German ...

Can an average of thresholds at 2 kHz and 4 kHz substitute for the threshold at 3 kHz in pure tone audiometry? A study based on the Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2010-2012. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
BACKGROUND:When evaluating hearing disability in medicolegal cases, an average of thresholds at several frequencies is calculated using pure tone audiometry. Occasionally, there are instances in which thresholds at certain frequencies are omitted.
