Waves on Reissner's Membrane: A Mechanism for the Propagation of Otoacoustic Emissions from the Cochlea

Cell Reports, 2012
Sound is detected and converted into electrical signals within the ear. The cochlea not only acts as a passive detector of sound, however, but can also produce tones itself.

Ototoxicity and otoprotection in the inner ear of guinea pigs using gentamicin and amikacin: ultrastructural and functional aspects

Brazilian Journal of Otorhinolaryngology, 2008
Summary: Ototoxicity is still a challenge to medicine. The discovery of self-protecting endogenous mechanisms of the outer hair cells associated with their functional and ultra-structural assessment methods has opened new horizons in the understanding ...

Type II spiral ganglion afferent neurons drive medial olivocochlear reflex suppression of the cochlear amplifier. [PDF]

, 2015
The dynamic adjustment of hearing sensitivity and frequency selectivity is mediated by the medial olivocochlear efferent reflex, which suppresses the gain of the 'cochlear amplifier' in each ear.

A Comprehensive Three-Dimensional Model of the Cochlea [PDF]

, 2003
The human cochlea is a remarkable device, able to discern extremely small amplitude sound pressure waves, and discriminate between very close frequencies.

Determination and evaluation of clinically efficient stopping criteria for the multiple auditory steady-state response technique [PDF]

, 2009
Background: Although the auditory steady-state response (ASSR) technique utilizes objective statistical detection algorithms to estimate behavioural hearing thresholds, the audiologist still has to decide when to terminate ASSR recordings introducing ...

Audio-vestibular symptoms in systemic autoimmune diseases [PDF]

, 2018
Immune-mediated inner ear disease can be primary, when the autoimmune response is against the inner ear, or secondary. The latter is characterized by the involvement of the ear in the presence of systemic autoimmune conditions. Sensorineural hearing loss
