Auditory Threshold Change in Singing Cicadas
The hearing sensitivity in singing cicadas is reduced during sound production by a folding of the tympanal membranes. Using electrophysiological recording and nerve stimulation techniques, we have shown an effect of the folded tympanum on the auditory threshold of two species of cicadas, Tibicen linnei and Okanagana rimosa. Auditory thresholds of both species increased by about 20 dB when the t...
متن کاملCicadas
Medical Genetics has long been a part of the undergraduate curriculum and is a rapidly increasing component of postgraduate training at all levels, in all specialities. Ian Young has provided a textbook which will delight both undergraduate and postgraduate readers. There are many textbooks which claim to cover essential medical genetic teaching, but many of these are too big, too detailed and ...
متن کاملEffect of Umbilical Cord Ferritin Level on Auditory Brainstem Response Threshold in Newborns
Introduction: Iron plays an important role in myelination. Ferritin is a reliable indicator of the tissue iron store and umbilical cord ferritin level reflects the in utero iron stores. Objective is to study the effect of the umbilical cord ferritin level on the ABR recording in the newborn. Materials and Methods: The study was conducted in a ...
متن کاملPlastic Change in the Auditory Minimum Threshold Induced by Intercollicular Effects in Mice
In the auditory pathway, the commissure of the inferior colliculus (IC) interconnects the two ICs on both sides of the dorsal midbrain. This interconnection could mediate an interaction between the two ICs during sound signal processing. The intercollicular effects evoked by focal electric stimulation for 30 min could inhibit or facilitate auditory responses and induce plastic changes in the re...
متن کاملTemporary Auditory - Threshold Shifts Induced
Four divers were exposed successively for ten minute periods to pure tones of 5600, 1400, and 700 hertz (Hz) (in that order) in air at 100 decibels above 20 raicropascal and in water at various sound pressure levels between 125 and 150 decibels above 20 micropascal. Divers incurred moderate temporary auditory-threshold shifts (TTS) from all exposures. Equivalent amounts of TTS are produced in w...
