Electro-tactile stimulation (ETS) enhances cochlear-implant Mandarin tone recognition
Objective: Electro-acoustic stimulation (EAS) is an effective method to enhance cochlear-implant performance in individuals who have residual low-frequency acoustic hearing.

Suppression of Acoustic Input by Thalamic Stimulation.
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 ...

Acoustic enhancement of sleep slow oscillations in mild cognitive impairment
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.

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

Developmental sensory experience balances cortical excitation and inhibition. [PDF]
Early in life, neural circuits are highly susceptible to outside influences. The organization of the primary auditory cortex (A1) in particular is governed by acoustic experience during the critical period, an epoch near the beginning of postnatal ...

Acoustic Stimulator for Rats [PDF]
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.
