Spatial hearing adaptation in congenital and acquired single-sided deafness [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience
IntroductionSpatial hearing depends on binaural integration of interaural time and level differences and monaural spectral cues. Single-sided deafness (SSD) disrupts this process, impairing localization and speech perception.

An fMRI-study on single-sided deafness: Spectral-temporal properties and side of stimulation modulates hemispheric dominance

open access: yesNeuroImage: Clinical, 2019
Objective: Our main aim was to investigate the blood oxygenation level dependent (BOLD) response to monaural and binaural speech- and non-speech stimuli as measured with fMRI in subjects with single-sided deafness and in normal hearing controls.

Cochlear Implantation and Single-sided Deafness: A Systematic Review of the Literature

open access: yesInternational Archives of Otorhinolaryngology, 2016
Introduction Current data show that binaural hearing is superior to unilateral hearing, specifically in the understanding of speech in noisy environments. Furthermore, unilateral hearing reduce onés ability to localize sound.

Tinnitus outcomes after cochlear implantation in single-sided deafness: an exploratory prospective multicenter study [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology
Tinnitus is thought to be suppressed through partial reversal of auditory deafferentation via cochlear implantation (CI). By stimulating the deafferented auditory pathway, multiple studies have revealed that tinnitus is significantly suppressed in 66–92%

Psychological Distress and Social Adjustment of a Working Adult Population with Single-Sided Deafness [PDF]

open access: yesAudiology Research
Background: Hearing loss is a highly prevalent condition in the world population that determines emotional, social, and economic costs. In recent years, it has been definitely recognized that the lack of physiological binaural hearing causes alterations ...

A cost-utility analysis of cochlear implants for single sided deafness in adults and children in the Netherlands. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE
BackgroundCochlear Implant (CI) has been shown to improve speech comprehension, sound localization and tinnitus in adults with Single-Sided-Deafness (SSD) compared to standard treatment currently available in the Dutch setting such as a CROS ...

Lateralization Pattern of the Weber Tuning Fork Test in Longstanding Unilateral Profound Hearing Loss: Implications for Cochlear Implantation

open access: yesAudiology Research, 2022
The Weber tuning fork test is a standard otologic examination tool in patients with unilateral hearing loss. Sound should typically lateralize to the contralateral side in unilateral sensorineural hearing loss.

Effects of cochlear implantation on auditory temporal processing in single-sided deafness: a report of two cases

open access: yesThe Egyptian Journal of Otolaryngology, 2023
Background Individuals with single-sided deafness have difficulty understanding speech in noise and determining sound direction in their daily lives. Cochlear implantation, a globally accepted rehabilitation method, has recently become used in Turkey in ...

The effect of noise on the cortical activity patterns of speech processing in adults with single-sided deafness

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2023
The most common complaint in people with single-sided deafness (SSD) is difficulty in understanding speech in a noisy environment. Moreover, the neural mechanism of speech-in-noise (SiN) perception in SSD individuals is still poorly understood.
