Auditory brainstem circuits that mediate the middle ear muscle reflex.
The middle ear muscle (MEM) reflex is one of two major descending systems to the auditory periphery. There are two middle ear muscles (MEMs): the stapedius and the tensor tympani. In man, the stapedius contracts in response to intense low frequency acoustic stimuli, exerting forces perpendicular to the stapes superstructure, increasing middle ear impedance and attenuating the intensity of sound...
متن کاملOssicular motion related to middle ear transmission delay in gerbil.
The middle ear transmits sound efficiently from the air in the ear canal (EC) to the fluid filled cochlea. In gerbil, middle ear transmission produces a constant pressure gain between the EC and the cochlea of ∼25 dB from 2 to 40 kHz, and a delay-like phase corresponding to a ∼25-30 μs delay. The mechanisms by which the air-born signal is collected and delivered to the cochlea are not thoroughl...
متن کامل[Vibration analysis in middle ear model with artificial ossicles, total ossicular replacement prosthesis (TORP) by holographic interferometry].
Vibration of tympanic membranes of the middle ear model with TORP and flat membrane made of gum were studied by means of holographic interferometry. Results were as follows. 1) As the tension of the gum became high, the amplitude decreased in low frequency. The segmental vibration was observed in low frequency as the tension became low. 2) The difference between 0.03mm and 0.06mm was not signif...
متن کاملThe middle ear muscle reflex in the diagnosis of cochlear neuropathy.
Cochlear neuropathy, i.e. the loss of auditory nerve fibers (ANFs) without loss of hair cells, may cause hearing deficits without affecting threshold sensitivity, particularly if the subset of ANFs with high thresholds and low spontaneous rates (SRs) is preferentially lost, as appears to be the case in both aging and noise-damaged cochleas. Because low-SR fibers may also be important drivers of...
متن کاملeffect of oral presentation on development of l2 learners grammar
this experimental study has been conducted to test the effect of oral presentation on the development of l2 learners grammar. but this oral presentation is not merely a deductive instruction of grammatical points, in this presentation two hypotheses of krashen (input and low filter hypotheses), stevicks viewpoints on grammar explanation and correction and widdowsons opinion on limited use of l1...
