Objective assessment of spectral ripple discrimination in cochlear implant listeners using cortical evoked responses to an oddball paradigm.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Cochlear implants (CIs) can partially restore functional hearing in deaf individuals. However, multiple factors affect CI listener's speech perception, resulting in large performance differences.

Comparing Clinically Applicable Behavioral and Electrophysiological Measures of Speech Detection, Discrimination, and Comprehension

open access: yesTrends in Hearing, 2022
Effective communication requires good speech perception abilities. Speech perception can be assessed with behavioral and electrophysiological methods. Relating these two types of measures to each other can provide a basis for new clinical tests.

Logatome Discrimination in Cochlear Implant Users: Subjective Tests Compared to the Mismatch Negativity

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2010
This paper describes a logatome discrimination test for the assessment of speech perception in cochlear implant users (CI users), based on a multilingual speech database, the Oldenburg Logatome Corpus, which was originally recorded for the comparison of ...

Place pitch discrimination and speech recognition in cochlear implants users

open access: yesSouth African Journal of Communication Disorders, 1996
The considerable variability in speech perception performance among cochlear implant patients makes it difficult to compare the effectiveness of different speech processing strategies. One result is that optimal individualized processor parameter setting

The relationship of speech intelligibility with hearing sensitivity, cognition, and perceived hearing difficulties varies for different speech perception tests

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2015
Listeners vary in their ability to understand speech in noisy environments. Hearing sensitivity, as measured by pure-tone audiometry, can only partly explain these results, and cognition has emerged as another key concept.

Predictive and prognostic biomarkers of Bacillus Calmette‐Guérin therapy failure in bladder cancer patients: A systematic review

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
High‐risk bladder cancer is typically treated with Bacillus Calmette‐Guérin (BCG), but 30–40% of patients relapse. No FDA‐ or CE‐approved biomarkers currently predict or prognosticate BCG failure. We systematically reviewed the literature and identified 72 eligible studies, revealing several promising biomarkers associated with BCG treatment response ...

Melody recognition and speech discrimination in post-lingual Japanese cochlear implant users

open access: yesThe Egyptian Journal of Otolaryngology
Background This study examines the relationship between melody recognition, pitch discrimination, and speech perception in post-lingual Japanese cochlear implant (CI) users, addressing whether enhanced pitch processing improves broader auditory outcomes.
