White Matter Microstructural Correlates of Auditory Brainstem Responses in Patients With Charcot‐Marie‐Tooth Disease

open access: yesBrain and Behavior, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
We quantitatively analyzed the cerebral white matter microstructure in patients with CMT using DTI. We identified cerebral white matter microstructural abnormalities in CMT patients, including the FMA and ILF. These alterations correlated with ABR interpeak latencies, suggesting impaired central auditory processing due to disrupted axonal‐myelin ...

Chronic Low‐Level Lead Exposure Causes Auditory Impairment and Accelerates the Progression of Age‐Related Hearing Loss in C57BL/6J Mice

open access: yesAging Cell, Volume 25, Issue 1, January 2026.
Chronic low‐concentration lead exposure accelerates the development of ARHL. Lead exposure mediates damage to cochlear sensory cells via the mitochondrial protease LONP1, leading to irreversible hearing loss. ABSTRACT Heavy metal ion exposure has become a global public health concern.

Viral-mediated Ntf3 overexpression disrupts innervation and hearing in nondeafened guinea pig cochleae

open access: yesMolecular Therapy: Methods & Clinical Development, 2016
Synaptopathy in the cochlea occurs when the connection between inner hair cells and the auditory nerve is disrupted, leading to impaired hearing and nerve degeneration. Experiments using transgenic mice have shown that overexpression of NT3 by supporting

Chronic Loud Noise—Biochemical and Ultrastructural Alterations in Auditory and Limbic Regions of the Rat Brain

open access: yesBioMed Research International, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Chronic noise is a major environmental risk factor leading to a number of pathologies in different parts of organisms, with a profound impact on health. The auditory system is the most vulnerable to the damaging effects of noise. However, sound processing is also supported by brain regions outside the classical auditory pathways, including limbic areas.

Characteristics of Hearing Loss in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesOtolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, Volume 173, Issue 6, Page 1317-1327, December 2025.
Abstract Methods A systematic review of CINAHL, Cochrane Library, PubMed, and SCOPUS databases was conducted according to PRISMA guidelines to identify studies evaluating T2DM and hearing loss. Primary outcome measures included continuous measures (mean), proportions (%), proportional difference (∆), and relative risks (RR) with 95% confidence ...

Beyond conventional audiograms : thresholds in quiet and noise and their diagnostic potential for noise-induced cochlear synaptopathy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Purpose: Studies in rodents, and more recently humans, suggest that noise exposure can cause permanent damage to synaptic ribbons between cochlear inner hair cells and auditory nerve synapses.

Spatial patterns of noise-induced inner hair cell ribbon loss in the mouse mid-cochlea

open access: yesiScience
Summary: In the mammalian cochlea, moderate acoustic overexposure leads to loss of ribbon-type synapse between the inner hair cell (IHC) and its postsynaptic spiral ganglion neuron (SGN), causing a reduced dynamic range of hearing but not a permanent ...

Reliability and interrelations of seven proxy measures of cochlear synaptopathy

open access: yesThe Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2018
Investigations of cochlear synaptopathy in living humans rely on proxy measures of auditory nerve function. Numerous procedures have been developed, typically based on the auditory brainstem response (ABR), envelope-following response (EFR), or middle-ear muscle reflex (MEMR).

Evidence for age-related cochlear synaptopathy in humans unconnected to speech-in-noise intelligibility deficits [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
[EN] Cochlear synaptopathy (or the loss of primary auditory synapses) remains a subclinical condition of uncertain prevalence. Here, we investigate whether it affects humans and whether it contributes to suprathreshold speech-in-noise intelligibility ...
