A hypothetical proposal for association between migraine and Meniere's disease. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Meniere's disease (MD) is a chronic condition affecting the inner ear whose precise etiology is currently unknown. We propose the hypothesis that MD is a migraine-related phenomenon which may have implications for future treatment options for both ...

Neural electrodes for brain‐computer interface system: From rigid to soft

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
Here, we review the development trends of neural electrodes in BCI. This paper highlights the critical role of electrodes in BCI systems, analyzes the limitations of rigid electrodes, and introduces various flexible electrodes. Furthermore, we discuss application scenarios and prospects of BCI electrode technology, aiming to provide valuable references

A novel therapeutic pathway to the human cochlear nerve

open access: yesScientific Reports
Traditional approaches to the human cochlear nerve have been impeded by its bony encasement deep inside the skull base. We present an innovative, minimally invasive, therapeutic pathway for direct access to the nerve to deliver novel regenerative ...

A Core Head, Neck, and Neuroanatomy Syllabus for Physical Therapy Student Education

open access: yesClinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Head, neck, and neuroanatomy are essential components of physical therapy education due to their broad clinical applications. Detailed syllabi exist for medical students, yet none have been developed for physical therapy. This study aimed to produce an International Federation of Associations of Anatomists core head, neck, and neuroanatomy ...

Parallel Auditory Filtering By Sustained and Transient Channels Separates Coarticulated Vowels and Consonants [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
A neural model of peripheral auditory processing is described and used to separate features of coarticulated vowels and consonants. After preprocessing of speech via a filterbank, the model splits into two parallel channels, a sustained channel and a ...

Ipsilateral cochlear implantation in cases with vestibular schwannoma

open access: yesEye &ENT Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Vestibular schwannomas (VS) are the most common tumors in the cerebellopontine angle, which can lead to hearing loss, particularly following tumor resection. For patients with bilateral VS associated with neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2), hearing loss significantly undermines their quality of life.

The impact of the size and angle of the cochlear basal turn on translocation of a pre-curved mid-scala cochlear implant electrode

open access: yesScientific Reports
Scalar translocation is a severe form of intra-cochlear trauma during cochlear implant (CI) electrode insertion. This study explored the hypothesis that the dimensions of the cochlear basal turn and orientation of its inferior segment relative to ...

Audio-vestibular symptoms in systemic autoimmune diseases [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Immune-mediated inner ear disease can be primary, when the autoimmune response is against the inner ear, or secondary. The latter is characterized by the involvement of the ear in the presence of systemic autoimmune conditions. Sensorineural hearing loss
