Numerical investigation of the basilar membrane vibration induced by the unsteady fluid flow in the human inner ear [PDF]
For a deeper understanding of the inner ear dynamics, a Finite-Element model of the human cochlea is developed. To describe the unsteady, viscous creeping flow of the liquid, a pressure-displacement-based Finite-Element formulation is used.

Differences in stress-induced modulation of the auditory system between Wistar and Lewis rats [PDF]
Many aspects of stress-induced physiological and psychological effects have been characterized in people and animals. However, stress effects on the auditory system are less explored and their mechanisms are not well-understood, in spite of its relevance

Auditory threshold change in singing cicadas [PDF]
ABSTRACT The hearing sensitivity in singing cicadas is reduced during sound production by a folding of the tympanal membranes. Using electrophysiological recording and nerve stimulation techniques, we have shown an effect of the folded tympanum on the auditory threshold of two species of cicadas, Tibicen linnei and Okanagana rimosa ...

Temporal Resolution and Active Auditory Discrimination Skill in Vocal Musicians
Introduction Enhanced auditory perception in musicians is likely to result from auditory perceptual learning during several years of training and practice. Many studies have focused on biological processing of auditory stimuli among musicians.

Phase locking below rate threshold in noisy model neurons [PDF]
The property of a neuron to phase-lock to an oscillatory stimulus before adapting its spike rate to the stimulus frequency plays an important role for the auditory system.

Effect of hearing aids on auditory function in infants with perinatal brain injury and severe hearing loss. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Approximately 2-4% of newborns with perinatal risk factors present with hearing loss. Our aim was to analyze the effect of hearing aid use on auditory function evaluated based on otoacoustic emissions (OAEs), auditory brain responses (ABRs ...

Application Progress of Objective Audiological Detection Techniques in Forensic Clinical Medicine [PDF]
The qualitative, quantitative, and localization analysis of hearing loss is one of the important contents of forensic clinical research and identification. Pure-tone audiometry is the “gold standard” for hearing loss assessment, but it is affected by the

The acute effects of alcohol on auditory thresholds [PDF]
There is very little knowledge about alcohol-induced hearing loss. Alcohol consumption and tolerance to loud noise is a well observed phenomenon as seen in the Western world where parties get noisier by the hour as the evening matures. This leads to increase in the referrals to the "hearing aid clinic" and the diagnosis of "cocktail party deafness ...
