Multifrequency Forcing of a Hopf Oscillator Model of the Inner Ear [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
In response to a sound stimulus, the inner ear emits sounds called otoacoustic emissions. While the exact mechanism for the production of otoacoustic emissions is not known, active motion of individual hair cells is thought to play a role. Two possible sources for otoacoustic emissions, both localized within individual hair cells, include somatic ...

Patterns of Teprotumumab‐Induced Hearing Dysfunction: A Systematic Review

open access: yesOtolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Hearing loss has been reported after administration of the monoclonal antibody teprotumumab. The purpose of this study was to review available evidence regarding the patterns of teprotumumab‐related ototoxicity. Data Sources PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library.

Spontaneous otoacoustic emissions: Clinical interest [PDF]

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, 1989
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.

Cochlear-bone wave can yield a hearing sensation as well as otoacoustic emission [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
A hearing sensation arises when the elastic basilar membrane inside the cochlea vibrates. The basilar membrane is typically set into motion through airborne sound that displaces the middle ear and induces a pressure difference across the membrane. A second, alternative pathway exists, however: stimulation of the cochlear bone vibrates the basilar ...

Foundations of the WKB Approximation for Models of Cochlear Mechanics in 1- and 2-D [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
The Wentzel-Kramers-Brillouin (WKB) approximation is frequently used to explore the mechanics of the cochlea. As opposed to numerical strategies, the WKB approximation facilitates analysis of model results through interpretable closed-form equations, and can be implemented with relative ease.

Two‐tone suppression between the ultrasounds above and within the hearing range in mice

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Hearing range differs among various species. Ultrasound, which is audible to microbats and dolphins, is inaudible to humans through air conduction. However, it can create an auditory sensation when the stimulation is transmitted through the temporal bone.

Cochlear synaptopathy causes loudness perception impairment without hearing loss

open access: yesNoise and Health, 2022
Purpose: In this study, the development of a quantitative measurement method to predict long-term auditory adaptation through the stimuli that have been modulated according to different short-term modulation types was aimed to form a psychoacoustic test ...

Reducing tectorial membrane viscoelasticity enhances spontaneous otoacoustic emissions and compromises the detection of low level sound

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2019
The mammalian cochlea is able to detect faint sounds due to the presence of an active nonlinear feedback mechanism that boosts cochlear vibrations of low amplitude.

Fast and slow effects of medial olivocochlear efferent activity in humans. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
The medial olivocochlear (MOC) pathway modulates basilar membrane motion and auditory nerve activity on both a fast (10-100 ms) and a slow (10-100 s) time scale in guinea pigs.
