Branchio‐oto‐renal syndrome (BOR), which results in hearing loss and craniofacial defects, is caused by mutations in either SIX1, SIX5, or EYA1. However, the underlying genetic cause is unknown in about 50% of patients. We used transcriptomics, proteomics, and yeast 2‐hybrid approaches in Xenopus embryos to identify new putative candidate genes of BOR.

Newborn hearing screening with transient evoked otoacoustic emissions and automatic auditory brainstem response [PDF]
Objective: The aim of the present investigation was to check Transient Evoked Otoacoustic Emissions and Automatic Auditory Brainstem Response tests applied together in regular nurseries and Newborn Intensive Care Units (NICU), as well as to describe and ...

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 ...

Enhancement and suppression of spontaneous emission and light scattering by quantum degeneracy [PDF]
Quantum degeneracy modifies light scattering and spontaneous emission. For fermions, Pauli blocking leads to a suppression of both processes. In contrast, in a weakly interacting Bose-Einstein condensate, we find spontaneous emission to be enhanced, while light scattering is suppressed.

Abstract Aim This study examined the predisposing factors, clinical picture, bacterial aetiology and clinical outcomes of infants and children with bacterial meningitis (BM). Methods The medical records of patients under 16 years of age, treated by Turku University Hospital, Finland, from 2011 to 2018, were screened for meningitis using the ...

Introduction: The transient-evoked otoacoustic emissions (TEOAE) have been the most widespread technique to perform neonatal hearing screening. Scrutinizing their measures by way of an association with other alterations that may impair the infant's ...

Hearing loss changes the auditory brain, sometimes maladaptively. When deprived of cochlear input, central auditory neurons become more active spontaneously and begin to respond more strongly and synchronously to better preserved sound frequencies.

A Comprehensive Three-Dimensional Model of the Cochlea [PDF]
The human cochlea is a remarkable device, able to discern extremely small amplitude sound pressure waves, and discriminate between very close frequencies.

Effects of Local Fields on Spontaneous Emission in Dielectric Media [PDF]
The local-field renormalization of the spontaneous emission rate in a dielectric is explicitly obtained from a fully microscopic quantum-electrodynamical, many-body derivation of Langevin-Bloch operator equations for two-level atoms embedded in an absorptive and dispersive, linear dielectric host.

Abstract We describe a 2‐month‐old female infant with macroglossia, macrosomia, omphalocele, neonatal hypoglycemia, earlobe creases, low nasal bridge, midface retrusion, syndromic facies and multiple cutaneous and hepatic hemangiomas (HH). Genetic evaluation confirmed the diagnosis of Beckwith–Wiedemann Syndrome (BWS) with mosaic uniparental disomy 11 ...
