Gerbils can tune in [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, 2008
Mammals have developed a unique sense of hearing with astonishing sensitivity and the largest frequency range among vertebrates. Frequency representation in mammals is achieved by mechanical tuning of the cochlea, caused mainly by geometrical and stiffness gradients of the basilar membrane changing from the cochlear base (where high frequencies are ...

Probabilistic Bag-Of-Hyperlinks Model for Entity Linking

open access: yes, 2016
Many fundamental problems in natural language processing rely on determining what entities appear in a given text. Commonly referenced as entity linking, this step is a fundamental component of many NLP tasks such as text understanding, automatic ...

Impaired Auditory Temporal Selectivity in the Inferior Colliculus of Aged Mongolian Gerbils [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Aged humans show severe difficulties in temporal auditory processing tasks (e.g., speech recognition in noise, low-frequency sound localization, gap detection). A degradation of auditory function with age is also evident in experimental animals.

Chinese Clinical Practice Guidelines for Auditory Neuropathy (gCAN)

open access: yesWorld Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Auditory neuropathy (AN) is an auditory disorder that affects the function of the auditory pathway. An increasing number of AN cases have been identified with the revelation of the underlying mechanisms, the advancements of diagnostic and detecting techniques.

Outer hair cells stir cochlear fluids

open access: yeseLife
We hypothesized that active outer hair cells drive cochlear fluid circulation. The hypothesis was tested by delivering the neurotoxin, kainic acid, to the intact round window of young gerbil cochleae while monitoring auditory responses in the cochlear ...

Effects of tetrodotoxin and ion replacements on the short-circuit current induced by Escherichiacoli heat stable enterotoxin across small intestine of the gerbil (Gerbillus cheesmani)

open access: yesMemorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2004
The effects of mucosally added Escherichia coli heat stable enterotoxin (STa 30 ng ml-1) on the basal short-circuit current (Isc in µA cm-2) across stripped and unstripped sheets of jejuna and ilea taken from fed, starved (4 days, water ad lib) and ...

The Organization of Somatostatin-Immunoreactive Cells in the Visual Cortex of the Gerbil

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2022
Somatostatin (SST) is widely expressed in the brain and plays various, vital roles involved in neuromodulation. The purpose of this study is to characterize the organization of SST neurons in the Mongolian gerbil visual cortex (VC) using ...

Electrocochleographic Changes Predict an Early Sign of Cochlear Degeneration

open access: yesWorld Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives The purpose of this study is to identify the earliest appearing auditory electrophysiological indicators that change with age progression in young adults with normal hearing, and to analyze the frequency distribution patterns of these markers in the cochlear.

Long-Term Use of Probiotic-Containing Yogurts Is a Safe Way to Prevent Helicobacter pylori: Based on a Mongolian Gerbil's Model

open access: yesBiochemistry Research International, 2013
Background. The suppression of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) decreases H. pylori-related diseases. The probiotics have an inhibitory effect on H. pylori. Aim. We investigated the effects of long-term use of yogurt on H.
