Screening methods for age-related hearing loss in older patients with cancer: A review of the literature [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
© 2018 by the authors. As people grow older, they may experience loss in hearing sensitivity. Age-related hearing loss may negatively affect the patient's quality of life as it may lead to social isolation. In older patients with cancer, hearing loss can

Revisiting Oto-Acoustic Emissions

open access: yesProceedings of Singapore Healthcare, 2015
Oto-acoustic emissions (OAEs) are an audiometric diagnostic test that allows quick objective measure of hair cell function in the inner ear. It is a reflection of hearing function at the interface of conductive and sensorineural components in the human ...

Interactions between hair cells shape spontaneous otoacoustic emissions in a model of the tokay gecko's cochlea. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
The hearing of tetrapods including humans is enhanced by an active process that amplifies the mechanical inputs associated with sound, sharpens frequency selectivity, and compresses the range of responsiveness.

Universal newborn hearing screening in the Lazio region, Italy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Background: The introduction of Universal Newborn Hearing Screening (UNHS) programs has drastically contributed to the early diagnosis of hearing loss in children, allowing prompt intervention with significant results on speech and language development ...

Newborn hearing screening [PDF]

open access: yesSrpski Arhiv za Celokupno Lekarstvo, 2007
Introduction: Prevalence of sensorineural hearing loss is 1-3 per 1,000 newborns. Transient evoked otoacoustic emission (TEOAE) and automated auditory brain stem responses (AABR) are most frequently used methods in newborn hearing screening programmes ...

Contralateral inhibition of click- and chirp-evoked human compound action potentials [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
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 ...

Neonatal hearing screening in a low-risk maternity hospital in São Paulo state

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Otorhinolaryngology, 2015
INTRODUCTION: The literature indicates that neonatal hearing screening should be universal, so a description of programs that adopt this recommendation is relevant.

A convolutional neural-network model of human cochlear mechanics and filter tuning for real-time applications

open access: yes, 2020
Auditory models are commonly used as feature extractors for automatic speech-recognition systems or as front-ends for robotics, machine-hearing and hearing-aid applications. Although auditory models can capture the biophysical and nonlinear properties of

Detection of cochlear hearing loss applying wavelet packets and support vector machines [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The aim of this paper is to evaluate the application of the wavelet packet transform (WP) and support vector machines (SVM) to transient evoked otoacoustic emissions (TEOAE) in order to achieve a detection of frequency-specific hearing loss. We introduce
