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

, 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 ...

Differences in hearing acuity among “normal-hearing” young adults modulate the neural basis for speech comprehension [PDF]

, 2018
In this paper, we investigate how subtle differences in hearing acuity affect the neural systems supporting speech processing in young adults. Auditory sentence comprehension requires perceiving a complex acoustic signal and performing linguistic ...

Modeling age-related differences in immediate memory using SIMPLE [PDF]

, 2006
In the SIMPLE model (Scale Invariant Memory and Perceptual Learning), performance on memory tasks is determined by the locations of items in multidimensional space, and better performance is associated with having fewer close neighbors.

Latency and Interpeak Interval Values of Auditory Brainstem Response in 73 Individuals with Normal Hearing

Medical Science Monitor, 2022
Background Auditory brainstem response (ABR) potential is important for audiological diagnosis, reflecting the integrity of the structures of the auditory system up to the brainstem.

Impaired Auditory Temporal Selectivity in the Inferior Colliculus of Aged Mongolian Gerbils [PDF]

, 2011
Aged humans show severe difficulties in temporal auditory processing tasks (e.g., speech recognition in noise, low-frequency sound localization, gap detection). A degradation of auditory function with age is also evident in experimental animals.

A psychoacoustic application for the adjustment of electrical hearing thresholds in cochlear implant patients.

PLoS ONE, 2019
ObjectiveFitting cochlear implants, especially the precise determination of electrical hearing thresholds, is a time-consuming and complex task for patients as well as audiologists.

Genome-wide signatures of convergent evolution in echolocating mammals [PDF]

, 2013
Evolution is typically thought to proceed through divergence of genes, proteins, and ultimately phenotypes(1-3). However, similar traits might also evolve convergently in unrelated taxa due to similar selection pressures(4,5).

Evaluation of otoacoustic emissions and brainstem auditory evoked potential in infants with birth asphyxia

Asian Journal of Medical Sciences
Background: Recent technological evolutions allow for the identification of hearing level (HL) in infants soon after birth. The goal of early hearing detection and intervention is to maximize linguistic and communication skills and literacy development ...

Objective Assessment System for Hearing Prediction Based on Stimulus-Frequency Otoacoustic Emissions

Trends in Hearing, 2021
Stimulus-frequency otoacoustic emissions (SFOAEs) can be useful tools for assessing cochlear function noninvasively. However, there is a lack of reports describing their utility in predicting hearing capabilities.

Health impacts of wind turbines [PDF]

, 2013
This report presents the results of a rapid, desk based analysis of peer reviewed UK and international literature from the last four years on the effects of wind turbines on human health. The review covers literature specified by the Scottish government,
