An international survey of the relatives and friends of electroconvulsive therapy recipients

open access: yesPsychology and Psychotherapy: Theory, Research and Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives This study aimed to address the paucity of studies of the relatives and friends of electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) patients. Methods A total of 1144 people responded to an online survey. Results The respondents included 286 relatives and friends of ECT recipients, from 22 countries.

Ramped pulse shapes are more efficient for cochlear implant stimulation in an animal model

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2020
In all commercial cochlear implant (CI) devices, the electric stimulation is performed with a rectangular pulse that generally has two phases of opposite polarity.

Noise‐induced reduction and early recovery of superior paraolivary nucleus sound‐offset responses

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Acoustic over‐exposure transiently disrupts auditory temporal processing in mouse superior paraolivary nucleus neurons. In control conditions, neurons exhibit robust sound‐offset (OFF) responses, which are abolished immediately following noise trauma, indicating impaired temporal encoding.

Astrocyte Hypertrophy and Microglia Activation in the Rat Auditory Midbrain Is Induced by Electrical Intracochlear Stimulation

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2018
Neuron–glia interactions contribute to tissue homeostasis and functional plasticity in the mammalian brain, but it remains unclear how this is achieved.

Laryngeal Nerve Activity During Pulse Emission in the CF-FM Bat, Rhinolophus ferrumequinum. II. The Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve [PDF]

open access: yes, 1981
The activity of the recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) was recorded in the greater horseshoe bat,Rhinolophus ferrumequinum. Respiration, vocalization and nerve discharges were monitored while vocalizations were elicted by stimulation of the central gray ...

Effect of Pulse Rate and Polarity on the Sensitivity of Auditory Brainstem and Cochlear Implant Users to Electrical Stimulation

open access: yesJournal of the Association for Research in Otolaryngology, 2015
To further understand the response of the human brainstem to electrical stimulation, a series of experiments compared the effect of pulse rate and polarity on detection thresholds between auditory brainstem implant (ABI) and cochlear implant (CI ...

Neurophysiological sensitivity to envelope and pulse timing interaural time differences in cochlear implanted rats with different hearing experiences

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Graphical summary of our study. Rats with varying hearing experiences were bilaterally implanted with cochlear implants (CIs), and neural responses were recorded from the inferior colliculus (IC), an auditory midbrain region (left).

Cortical responses to balance perturbations persist without active postural control

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend A robotic balance simulator was used to test whether cortical responses to balance perturbations are contingent on active balance control or instead reflect the detection of unexpected motion. Participants experienced identical support‐surface rotations (toes‐up and toes‐down) while actively controlling balance or while being ...

The sensitivity of different methods for detecting abnormalities in auditory nerve function

open access: yesBioMedical Engineering OnLine, 2020
Background Cochlear implants (CIs) have become important for the treatment of severe-to-profound sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL). Meanwhile, electrically evoked compound action potentials (ECAPs) and electrically evoked auditory brainstem responses ...
