Multi-neuronal auditory coding for frequency resolution beyond the refractory threshold [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2006
We propose a new mechanism for high-pitch perception by a system of multiple neurons capable of resolving frequencies higher than the frequency associated with the mean refractory period up to a multiple thereof.

Interference Pattern Caused by Bilateral Bone Conduction Stimulation Impairs Sound Localization

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This work explores how crosstalk‐induced wave interference affects bone conduction (BC) sound localization. Using a theoretical model, cadaveric vibrometry, and psychoacoustic tests, atypical BC lateralization patterns are revealed that contradict air conduction (AC) principles.

Inducing Mimicry Through Auditory Icons [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2019
This study aims to find out if periodic auditory icon loop and non-periodic auditory icon loop can induce mimicry in humans. Auditory icons are snippet of everyday sounds used to represent information or processes. A within-subject, Oz-of-Wizard experiment was conducted among forty participants.

The State of High‐Resolution Imaging of the Human Inner Ear: A Look Into the Black Box

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
High‐resolution imaging of the cochlea is challenged by numerous unique aspects of this organ, where sensorineural cells, crucial for hearing, are too small for conventional modalities like magnetic resonance imaging and computed tomography. This article reviews current imaging techniques, emerging technologies, and innovations aimed at improving ...

European multicentre study on outcome of surgery for sporadic primary hyperparathyroidism

open access: yesBJS (British Journal of Surgery), EarlyView., 2020
Some 5861 patients undergoing first‐time surgery for sporadic primary hyperparathyroidism were registered in the Eurocrine® database between 2015 and 2018. The use of intraoperative parathyroid hormone measurement decreased the risk of conversion and persistent hypercalcaemia.

Oxytocin‐Mediate Modulation of Splenic Immunosuppression in Chronic Social Stress Through Neuroendocrine Pathways

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Chronic social stress elevates oxytocin levels, leading to immunosuppression by enhancing regulatory T‐cell activity and promoting anti‐inflammatory macrophage polarization in the spleen. Blocking oxytocin signaling reverses these effects but worsens stress‐induced behavioral disorders and reduces survival rates. This highlights oxytocin's dual role in

Auditory brainstem response thresholds difference using Click and CE-Chirp in auditory brainstem response

open access: yesRevista Médica del Hospital General de México
Introduction: Auditory Brainstem Response, also known as short-latency auditory evoked potentials (SLAEP) is a useful tool for performing auditory evaluations in children and difficult to test patients.

Sivian and White revisited: the role of resonant thermal noise pressure on the eardrum in auditory thresholds [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2009
The influence of thermal pressure fluctuations on the tympanic membrane has been re- examined as a possible contributing determinant of the threshold of human hearing over the range of audible frequencies. The early approximate calculation of Sivian and White [1] is shown to result in higher values of thermal noise pressure on the tympanium of a model ...

In Vivo Cytosolic Delivery of Biomolecules into Neurons for Super‐Resolution Imaging and Genome Modification

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The N1 peptide specifically targets neurons, enabling cytosolic delivery of fluorescent dyes and proteins for super‐resolution imaging and functional genetic modification. Abstract Efficient delivery of biomolecules into neurons has significant impacts on therapeutic applications in the central nervous system (CNS) and fundamental neuroscience research.

Hidden cochlear impairments

open access: yesJournal of Otology, 2018
Pure tone audiometry is a routine clinical examination used to identify hearing loss. A normal pure tone audiogram is usually taken as evidence of normal hearing.
