Does size of the cochlear nerve affect postoperative auditory performance in pediatric cochlear implant patients with normal cochlear nerves? [PDF]
Brazilian Journal of Otorhinolaryngology, 2022 Introduction: Cochlear implantation is an effective treatment method for severe to profound hearing loss. Many factors that may influence cochlear implantation success have been explained in previous studies.

A ratchet mechanism for amplification in low-frequency mammalian hearing [PDF]
Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 107, 4973-4978 (2010), 2010 The sensitivity and frequency selectivity of hearing result from tuned amplification by an active process in the mechanoreceptive hair cells. In most vertebrates the active process stems from the active motility of hair bundles.

Responsiveness of the Electrically Stimulated Cochlear Nerve in Children With Cochlear Nerve Deficiency. [PDF]
Ear Hear, 2018 Objectives: This study aimed to (1) investigate the responsiveness of the cochlear nerve (CN) to a single biphasic-electrical pulse in implanted children with cochlear nerve deficiency (CND) and (2) compare their results with those measured in implanted children with normal-size CNs. Design:
