Suppression of Acoustic Input by Thalamic Stimulation.

open access: yesExperimental Biology and Medicine, 1958
1. Electrical responses to clicks were recorded from the ventral cochlear nucleus in curarized cats, and the effect thereon of brain stem repetitive stimulation was investigated (stereotaxic method). 2. Clear-cut inhibition of the cochlear nucleus response to click was recorded when a critically-localized region of the posterior diencephalon was ...

Noise exposure in healthcare workers

open access: yesMedicine Science, 2023
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of noise in hospitals on healthcare workers, to develop recommendations for reducing noise in hospitals and to show why healthcare workers should be protected from noise exposure in hospitals.

Acoustic Stimulation Following Sleep Spindle Activity May Enhance Procedural Memory Consolidation During a Nap

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2019
Acoustic and electrical brain stimulations are techniques well known to enhance memory consolidation by driving slow oscillations (SO, <; 1Hz) and sleep spindle activity.

Acoustic enhancement of sleep slow oscillations in mild cognitive impairment

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, 2019
Objective Slow‐wave activity (SWA) during sleep is reduced in people with amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI) and is related to sleep‐dependent memory consolidation.

Electro-tactile stimulation (ETS) enhances cochlear-implant Mandarin tone recognition

open access: yesWorld Journal of Otorhinolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, 2017
Objective: Electro-acoustic stimulation (EAS) is an effective method to enhance cochlear-implant performance in individuals who have residual low-frequency acoustic hearing.

Case report of the first patient with electro-mechanical stimulation of the inner ear: The Vibrant Soundbridge combined with a FLEX20 cochlear implant

open access: yesOtolaryngology Case Reports, 2020
Background: Previous studies in the field of cochlear implantation have proven that the use of electro-acoustic stimulation systems in patients with low frequency residual hearing results in improved speech perception scores compared to electric only ...

Respiratory and Electrocortical Responses to Acoustic Stimulation [PDF]

open access: yesSleep, 1996
Although sleep-related obstructive apnea is most often associated with transient arousal, the impact of this arousal on respiratory control remains unclear. We employed binaural tone bursts (.5 second duration) to elicit repetitive transient arousals from sleep during polygraphic recordings in 5 adult volunteers.

Speech Recognition and Acoustic Features in Combined Electric and Acoustic Stimulation [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2012
Purpose In this study, the authors aimed to identify speech information processed by a hearing aid (HA) that is additive to information processed by a cochlear implant (CI) as a function of signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). Method Speech recognition was measured with CI alone, HA alone ...

Mechanical Affective Touch Therapy for Anxiety Disorders: Feasibility, Clinical Outcomes, and Electroencephalography Biomarkers From an Open-Label Trial

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychiatry, 2022
BackgroundMost external peripheral nerve stimulation devices designed to alter mood states use electrical energy, but mechanical stimulation for activation of somatosensory pathways may be harnessed for potential therapeutic neuromodulation.

Acoustic Stimulator for Rats [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1968
The ear bar of a stereo-taxic instrument was modified to permit the introduction of acoustic stimuli to the rat's eardrum during acute experiments on the auditory nervous system. For measurement of the sound pressure of pure-tone stimuli, a probe microphone was attached to the hollow ear bar so that the probe tube tip is placed near the eardrum.
