A Brownian Energy Depot Model of the Basilar Membrane Oscillation with a Braking Mechanism [PDF]

arXiv, 2008
High auditory sensitivity, sharp frequency selectivity, and otoacoustic emissions are signatures of active amplification of the cochlea. The human ear can also detect very large amplitude sound without being damaged as long as the exposed time is not too long. The outer hair cells are believed as the best candidate for the active force generator of the

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

, 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 ...

Finnish paediatric study found a low incidence of bacterial meningitis from 2011 to 2018 but a substantial proportion of nosocomial meningitis

Acta Paediatrica, Volume 113, Issue 2, Page 327-335, February 2024.
Abstract Aim This study examined the predisposing factors, clinical picture, bacterial aetiology and clinical outcomes of infants and children with bacterial meningitis (BM). Methods The medical records of patients under 16 years of age, treated by Turku University Hospital, Finland, from 2011 to 2018, were screened for meningitis using the ...

Enhancement and suppression of spontaneous emission and light scattering by quantum degeneracy [PDF]

, 2000
Quantum degeneracy modifies light scattering and spontaneous emission. For fermions, Pauli blocking leads to a suppression of both processes. In contrast, in a weakly interacting Bose-Einstein condensate, we find spontaneous emission to be enhanced, while light scattering is suppressed.

Response level of the transient-evoked otoacoustic emissions on infants having a gastroesophageal reflux

International Archives of Otorhinolaryngology, 2011
Introduction: The transient-evoked otoacoustic emissions (TEOAE) have been the most widespread technique to perform neonatal hearing screening. Scrutinizing their measures by way of an association with other alterations that may impair the infant's ...

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.

Beckwith–Wiedemann syndrome with multiple hepatic and cutaneous hemangiomas in a female patient of Albanian origin: Diagnostic and therapeutic considerations

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 194, Issue 1, Page 88-93, January 2024.
Abstract We describe a 2‐month‐old female infant with macroglossia, macrosomia, omphalocele, neonatal hypoglycemia, earlobe creases, low nasal bridge, midface retrusion, syndromic facies and multiple cutaneous and hepatic hemangiomas (HH). Genetic evaluation confirmed the diagnosis of Beckwith–Wiedemann Syndrome (BWS) with mosaic uniparental disomy 11 ...

Effects of Local Fields on Spontaneous Emission in Dielectric Media [PDF]

, 2000
The local-field renormalization of the spontaneous emission rate in a dielectric is explicitly obtained from a fully microscopic quantum-electrodynamical, many-body derivation of Langevin-Bloch operator equations for two-level atoms embedded in an absorptive and dispersive, linear dielectric host.

Newborn hearing screening with transient evoked otoacoustic emissions and automatic auditory brainstem response [PDF]

Einstein (São Paulo), 2008
Objective: The aim of the present investigation was to check Transient Evoked Otoacoustic Emissions and Automatic Auditory Brainstem Response tests applied together in regular nurseries and Newborn Intensive Care Units (NICU), as well as to describe and ...
