Nicotine induced ototoxicity in rat cochlear organotypic cultures
Epidemiological evidence has shown that smoking is associated with an increased risk of hearing loss. However, the underlying mechanisms regarding the impact of nicotine on the cochlea remain unclear. This study aimed to investigate the cytotoxic effects

E-ABR in patients with cochlear implant: A comparison between patients with malformed cochlea and normal cochlea [PDF]
OBJECTIVES: This study aims to compare the electrical auditory brainstem response (EABR) following cochlear implant (CI) surgery in pediatric subjects with cochlear malformation and a normal cochlea, in order to assess the sensitivity of EABR and to ...

Wiring the senses: Factors that regulate peripheral axon pathfinding in sensory systems
Abstract Sensory neurons of the head are the ones that transmit the information about the external world to our brain for its processing. Axons from cranial sensory neurons sense different chemoattractant and chemorepulsive molecules during the journey and in the target tissue to establish the precise innervation with brain neurons and/or receptor ...

Inner ear macrophages play a vital role in cochlear homeostasis. Recent studies have demonstrated the existence of macrophages at different sites of the cochlea, with increased cochlear infiltration as an inflammatory response mechanism to injury ...

Contralateral inhibition of click- and chirp-evoked human compound action potentials [PDF]
Cochlear outer hair cells (OHC) receive direct efferent feedback from the caudal auditory brainstem via the medial olivocochlear (MOC) bundle. This circuit provides the neural substrate for the MOC reflex, which inhibits cochlear amplifier gain and is ...

Subjective Fatigue in Children With Unaided and Aided Unilateral Hearing Loss
Objectives Fatigue is frequently observed in children with chronic diseases and can affect the quality of life (QoL). However, research in children with unilateral hearing loss (UHL) is scarce. Subsequently, no studies investigated the effects of hearing aids on fatigue in children.

Useful residual hearing despite radiological findings suggestive of anacusis [PDF]
A severe malformation of the inner ear, often referred to as severe labyrinthine dysplasia or common cavity deformity, consists of an absent or dilated cochlear basal coil, wide communication with the vestibule and a tapered internal acoustic meatus and ...

Corticofugal modulation of peripheral auditory responses
The auditory efferent system originates in the auditory cortex and projects to the medial geniculate body, inferior colliculus, cochlear nucleus and superior olivary complex reaching the cochlea through olivocochlear fibers.
