Auditory brainstem-evoked response to chirp and click stimuli in children with moderate and severe sensorineural hearing loss

open access: yesJournal of Medicine in Scientific Research, 2018
Background Auditory brainstem response (ABR) using click stimuli enables global objective estimation of hearing threshold. The application of chirp stimuli aims to produce synchronized response from large portion of hair cells in the basilar membrane ...

Protective Effects of Buckwheat and Isoquercitrin Against Noise‐Induced Hearing Loss in Mice: An Antioxidant Strategy Targeting the Nrf2/HO‐1 Pathway in Auditory Hair Cells

open access: yesFood Frontiers, EarlyView.
Isoquercitrin (IQ), a major bioactive compound in buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum Moench; BW), serves as a key mediator of the protective effects of BW against noise‐induced hearing loss (NIHL) by activating the Nrf2/HO‐1 signaling pathway, and oral administration of BW and IQ significantly attenuates oxidative stress and hair cell apoptosis through ...

Adaptation of Binaural Processing in the Adult Brainstem Induced by Ambient Noise [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Interaural differences in stimulus intensity and timing are major cues for sound localization. In mammals, these cues are first processed in the lateral and medial superior olive by interaction of excitatory and inhibitory synaptic inputs from ipsi- and ...

What Does Iron Mean to an Oligodendrocyte?

open access: yesGlia, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Iron is essential for life and plays a key role in multiple fundamental cellular functions. The brain has the highest rate of energy consumption, and within the brain, oligodendrocytes have the highest level of oxidative metabolism per volume. Oligodendrocytes also stain the strongest for iron.

Histological and functional aspects of Alpha-synuclein in neurodegeneration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Alpha-synuclein has been implicated in the cellular mechanisms that control auditory sensitivity. In other systems it can also confer protection against cellular injury.

Relating the variability of tone-burst otoacoustic emission and auditory brainstem response latencies to the underlying cochlear mechanics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Forward and reverse cochlear latency and its relation to the frequency tuning of the auditory filters can be assessed using tone bursts (TBs). Otoacoustic emissions (TBOAEs) estimate the cochlear roundtrip time, while auditory brainstem responses (ABRs ...

Human Brainstem Exhibits higher Sensitivity and Specificity than Auditory-Related Cortex to Short-Term Phonetic Discrimination Learning

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Phonetic discrimination learning is an active perceptual process that operates under the influence of cognitive control mechanisms by increasing the sensitivity of the auditory system to the trained stimulus attributes.

New insights into applications of base editor in hereditary disorders

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Hereditary disorders are a group of diseases caused by genetic mutations or chromosomal variations. Although the incidence of each genetic disorder is relatively low, patients affected by the disease generally experience a range of severe symptoms, including blindness, disability, and even premature death. In addition, the available treatments

Optogenetic stimulation of the cochlear nucleus using channelrhodopsin-2 evokes activity in the central auditory pathways [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Optogenetics has become an important research tool and is being considered as the basis for several neural prostheses. However, few studies have applied optogenetics to the auditory brainstem.

Evaluation of cochlear and auditory brainstem functions in COVID-19 patients; a case control study

open access: yesThe Egyptian Journal of Otolaryngology
Background Many viral infections can cause hearing loss due to affection of cochlear hair cells or neurogenic pathway. Although, the damage secondary to viral infections is mainly cochlear affection; auditory brainstem can be affected as well.
