Congenital Unilateral Deafness Affects Cerebral Organization of Reading
It is known that early sensory deprivation modifies brain functional structure and connectivity. The aim of the present study was to investigate the neuro-functional organization of reading in a patient with profound congenital unilateral deafness. Using event-related potentials (ERPs), we compared cortical networks supporting the processing of written words in patient RA (completely deaf in th...
متن کاملCerebral organization of component processes in reading.
The cerebral organization of word identification processes in reading was examined using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). Changes in fMRI signal intensities were measured in 38 subjects (19 males and 19 females) during visual (line judgement), orthographic (letter case judgement), phonological (nonword rhyme judgement) and semantic (semantic category judgement) tasks. A strategy of...
متن کاملMonaural Congenital Deafness Affects Aural Dominance and Degrades Binaural Processing
Cortical development extensively depends on sensory experience. Effects of congenital monaural and binaural deafness on cortical aural dominance and representation of binaural cues were investigated in the present study. We used an animal model that precisely mimics the clinical scenario of unilateral cochlear implantation in an individual with single-sided congenital deafness. Multiunit respon...
متن کاملAdams Oliver Syndrome and Congenital Deafness
Admas-Oliver syndrome is a rare autosomal dominant disease of congenital development defects association with aplasia cutis. All of 81 reported cases were of 32 group families. These two cases had congenital scalp cutis aplasia with developmental defect and hypoplasia of left foot digits in case 1.Congenital deaf-mute in both can added to the past known findings in this syndrome. Thoracic defor...
متن کاملPlasticity of frequency organization in auditory cortex of guinea pigs with partial unilateral deafness.
We have examined the effect of restricted unilateral cochlear lesions on the orderly topographic mapping of sound frequency in the auditory cortex of adult guinea pigs. These lesions, although restricted in spatial extent, resulted in a variety of patterns of histological damage to receptor cells and nerve fibres within the cochlea. Nevertheless, all lesions resulted in permanent losses of sens...
