Efferent auditory system: its effect on auditory processing
Summary: Auditory processing depends on afferent and efferent auditory pathways integrity. The efferent auditory system may be assessed in humans by two non-invasive and objective methods: acoustic reflex and otoacoustic emissions suppression.

Dynamics of spontaneous otoacoustic emissions [PDF]
Spontaneous otoacoustic emissions (SOAEs) have become a hallmark feature in modern theories of an ‘active’ inner ear, given their numerous correlations to auditory function (e.g., threshold microstructure, neurophysiological tuning curves), near universality across tetrapod classes, and physiological correlates at the single hair cell level.

Distortion-product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAEs) elicited with high-frequency (HF; up to 16 kHz) stimuli are measurable and repeatable in normal-hearing adults and children, adult patients, and are sensitive to ototoxic insults in adults.

The 1.06 frequency ratio in the cochlea: evidence and outlook for a natural musical semitone [PDF]
A frequency ratio of about 1.06 often appears in cochlear mechanics, and the question naturally arises, why? The ratio is close to that of the semitone (1.059) in music, giving reason to think that this aspect of musical perception might have a cochlear ...

Top-Down Cognitive and Linguistic Influences on the Suppression of Spontaneous Otoacoustic Emissions
Auditory sensation is often thought of as a bottom-up process, yet the brain exerts top-down control to affect how and what we hear. We report the discovery that the magnitude of top-down influence varies across individuals as a result of differences in ...

Spontaneous otoacoustic emissions: Clinical interest [PDF]
AbstractSpontaneous otoacoustic emissions (SOEs) were recorded in a group of normally hearing participants (n=148 ears) and a group of patients demonstrating several common types of sensorineural hearing loss (n=136 ears) in order to study the clinical interest of spontaneous otoacoustic emissions.

CEACAM16 is a non-collagenous protein of the tectorial membrane, an extracellular structure of the cochlea essential for normal hearing. Dominant and recessive mutations in CEACAM16 have been reported to cause postlingual and progressive forms of ...

A novel approach to detect cochlear hearing loss [PDF]
The aim of this paper is to evaluate the application of time-frequency (TF) transforms and support vector machines (SVM) to transient evoked otoacoustic emissions (TEOAE) in order to achieve a detection of frequency-specific hearing loss.
