An experimental study on auditory dysfunction associated with hyperlipoproteinemia.

Auditory dysfunction associated with solvent exposure

BACKGROUND A number of studies have demonstrated that solvents may induce auditory dysfunction. However, there is still little knowledge regarding the main signs and symptoms of solvent-induced hearing loss (SIHL). The aim of this research was to investigate the association between solvent exposure and adverse effects on peripheral and central auditory functioning with a comprehensive audiologi...

Migraine associated with auditory - vestibular dysfunction Summary

Is Subclinical Thyroid Dysfunction Associated With with Coronary Heart Disease?

Introduction: Previous cohort studies reported contradictory data on the association between subclinical thyroid dysfunction and coronary heart disease (CHD). Regarding this, the present study was conducted to illuminate this relationship. Materials and Methods: For the purpose of the study, 3,066 participants employed in a study conducted by Azizi et al. aged ≥ 20 years were subjected to thyro...

Hyperlipoproteinemia with albumin-lipid complex: a novel type of hyperlipoproteinemia associated with insulin-resistant diabetes mellitus.

We describe a new phenotype of hyperlipoproteinemia in two members of a family with a high degree of consanguinity. Both have a history of uncontrolled diabetes mellitus without ketoacidosis, and a family history of coronary artery disease at a relatively early age. A high degree of insulin resistance was found. The abnormal lipoprotein(s) has alpha-lipoprotein mobility on cellulose acetate ele...

Visual and auditory stimuli associated with swallowing: an FMRI study.

We focused on brain areas activated by audiovisual stimuli related to swallowing motions. In this study, three kinds of stimuli related to human swallowing movement (auditory stimuli alone, visual stimuli alone, or audiovisual stimuli) were presented to the subjects, and activated brain areas were measured using fMRI and analyzed. When auditory stimuli alone were presented, the supplementary mo...
