Comparison of Cochlear Nerve Fiber Responses to Cochlear Microphonics [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1970
The Fourier analysis of period histograms of spike discharges of single cochlear nerve fibers in response to continuous, single sinusoidal stimuli reveals properties that are remarkably similar to those of the cochlear microphonic (CM) as measured in individual turns of the cochlea.

Speech Recognition with Cochlea‐Inspired In‐Sensor Computing

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Traditional speech recognition methods rely on software‐based feature extraction that introduces latency and high energy costs, making them unsuitable for low‐power devices. A proof‐of‐concept demonstration is provided of a bioinspired tonotopic sensor for speech recognition that mimics the human cochlea, using a spiral‐shaped elastic metamaterial. The

Immediate and delayed cochlear neuropathy after noise exposure in pubescent mice.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Moderate acoustic overexposure in adult rodents is known to cause acute loss of synapses on sensory inner hair cells (IHCs) and delayed degeneration of the auditory nerve, despite the completely reversible temporary threshold shift (TTS) and ...

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 ...

Electrical Stimulation of Trigeminal Nerve at the Anterior Nasal Septum in Healthy Individuals and Patients With Olfactory Dysfunction

open access: yesInternational Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The intranasal trigeminal system contributes to the sense of smell. Its integrity in olfactory dysfunction (OD) may be crucial for future treatments. This study assessed trigeminal sensitivity in healthy individuals and patients with OD of different etiologies using electrical stimulation of the nasal mucosa.
