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.

EFFECTS OF ACOUSTIC STIMULATION ON BIOPHYSICAL PROFILE TESTING TIME [PDF]
Biophysical profile (BPP) test is the most commonly used antenatal test of fetal well-being. Purpose of this study is determining the influence of acoustic stimulation (AS) on BPP testing time.

Similarities between action potentials and acoustic pulses in a van der Waals fluid [PDF]
An action potential is typically described as a purely electrical change that propagates along the membrane of excitable cells. However, recent experiments have demonstrated that non-linear acoustic pulses that propagate along lipid interfaces and ...

Contralateral inhibition of click- and chirp-evoked human compound action potentials [PDF]
Cochlear outer hair cells (OHC) receive direct efferent feedback from the caudal auditory brainstem via the medial olivocochlear (MOC) bundle. This circuit provides the neural substrate for the MOC reflex, which inhibits cochlear amplifier gain and is ...

Multimodal acoustic-electric trigeminal nerve stimulation modulates conscious perception
Multimodal stimulation can reverse pathological neural activity and improve symptoms in neuropsychiatric diseases. Recent research shows that multimodal acoustic-electric trigeminal-nerve stimulation (TNS) (i.e., musical stimulation synchronized to ...

A computer model of auditory efferent suppression: Implications for the recognition of speech in noise [PDF]
The neural mechanisms underlying the ability of human listeners to recognize speech in the presence of background noise are still imperfectly understood.

Rehabilitative devices for a top-down approach [PDF]
In recent years, neurorehabilitation has moved from a "bottom-up" to a "top down" approach. This change has also involved the technological devices developed for motor and cognitive rehabilitation.

Relationship between hearing function and myasthenia gravis: a contemporary review [PDF]
There is increasing evidence of a connection between hearing function and myasthenia gravis (MG). Studies of the pathophysiological basis of this relationship suggest that acetylcholine receptors (AChRs) on outer hair cells (OHCs) play a central role. In
