The role of external broadcasting in a closed political system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
This article investigates the role and impact of external broadcasting (radio and television) on a closed political system, through the example of the two post-war German states: the West German Federal Republic of Germany (FRG) and the East German ...

Hair cell maturation is differentially regulated along the tonotopic axis of the mammalian cochlea [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Sound amplification within the mammalian cochlea depends upon specialized hair cells, the outer hair cells (OHCs), which possess both sensory and motile capabilities.

The Development of a Single Frequency Place in the Mammalian Cochlea: The Cochlear Resonance in the Mustached Bat Pteronotus parnellii [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Cochlear microphonic potentials (CMs) were recorded from the sharply tuned, strongly resonant auditory foveae of 1- to 5-week-old mustached bats that were anesthetized with Rompun and Ketavet.

Auditory power-law activation-avalanches exhibit a fundamental computational ground-state [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The cochlea provides a biological information-processing paradigm that we only begin to under- stand in its full complexity. Our work reveals an interacting network of strongly nonlinear dynami- cal nodes, on which even simple sound input triggers ...

The cochlea as a smart structure [PDF]

open access: yesSmart Materials and Structures, 2012
The cochlea is part of the inner ear and its mechanical response provides us with many aspects of our amazingly sensitive and selective hearing. The human cochlea is a coiled tube, with two main fluid chambers running along its length, separated by a 35 mm-long flexible partition that has its own internal dynamics. A dispersive wave can propagate along

The nicotinic receptor of cochlear hair cells: A possible pharmacotherapeutic target? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Mechanosensory hair cells of the organ of Corti transmit information regarding sound to the central nervous system by way of peripheral afferent neurons.

Left hippocampus sparing model for glioblastoma radiotherapy by utilizing knowledge‐based planning and multi‐criteria optimization

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Results of a prospective, randomized controlled trial at our institute demonstrate an association between the dose to the left hippocampus and neurocognitive decline post‐radiotherapy for patients with glioblastoma. To minimize the dose to the left hippocampus, a left hippocampus sparing model was created using RapidPlan (RP) and multi‐

Epigallocatechin-3-gallate, a prototypic chemopreventative agent for protection against cisplatin-based ototoxicity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Cisplatin-induced ototoxicity is one of the major factors limiting cisplatin chemotherapy. Ototoxicity results from damage to outer hair cells (OHCs) and other regions of the cochlea.

Cochlea-inspired tonotopic resonators

open access: yesMaterials & Design, 2023
The cochlea has long been the subject of investigation in various research fields due to its intriguing spiral architecture and unique sensing characteristics. One of its most interesting features is tonotopy, the ability to sense acoustic waves at different spatial locations based on their frequency content. In this work, we propose a novel design for

Does dose calculation algorithm affect the dosimetric accuracy of synthetic CT for MR‐only radiotherapy planning in brain tumors?

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose This study compares the dosimetric accuracy of deep‐learning‐based MR synthetic CT (sCT) in brain radiotherapy between the Analytical Anisotropic Algorithm (AAA) and AcurosXB (AXB). Additionally, it proposes a novel metric to predict the dosimetric accuracy of sCT for individual post‐surgical brain cases.
