Effects of GSM-like radiofrequency on distortion product otoacoustic emissions in pregnant adult rabbits.
OBJECTIVES To determine the effects of 1800 MHz GSM-like Radiofrequency (RFR) on the cochlear functions of pregnant adult rabbits by Distortion Product Otoacoustic Emissions (DPOAEs). METHODS Eighteen 13-month-old pregnant and eighteen 13-month-old non-pregnant New Zealand White rabbits were studied. They were randomly divided into four groups. Nine pregnant rabbits (Group 2) and nine non-pre...
متن کاملEffects of cigarette smoking on distortion product otoacoustic emissions.
This study measured distortion product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAEs) and DPOAE input/output (I/O) curves to assess the effects of smoking on cochlear function. Twenty-four healthy adults, 12 smokers and 12 nonsmokers in the 20-30 years age range were selected based on self-reported histories of five to eight years of smoking or no smoking, respectively. All subjects received tympanometric scre...
متن کاملDistortion product otoacoustic emissions in tinnitus patients.
Tinnitus is a symptom that affects a great number of patients. Its diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up are difficult, owing to its subjectivity. The authors propose the use of distortion product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAEs) in tinnitus evaluation. They studied three groups: controls, having no complaint of tinnitus and normal hearing; group 1, presenting tinnitus and normal audiometry; and gr...
متن کاملSensitivity of distortion product otoacoustic emissions in noise-exposed chinchillas.
The present study investigates the effect of small amounts of outer hair cell (OHC) loss on distortion product otoacoustic emission (DPOAE) levels and evoked potential permanent threshold shifts (PTS) in a population of 12 noise-exposed chinchillas. The group mean DPOAE level, which decreased by up to approximately 15 dB in the presence of less than 8 dB PTS and 15% OHC loss, indicates that DPO...
متن کاملOtoacoustic emissions growth rate threshold: distortion product in neonates.
BACKGROUND Distortion product otoacoustic emission measures (DPOAE) verifies, among other characteristics, the emergence and growth rate of the DPOAE response according to sound stimulus intensity (growth curve). AIM To estimate the DPOAE threshold in neonates according to the DPOAE growth curve at 2 kHz and 4 kHz, with stimulus presentation ranging between 35 and 70 dB SPL. METHOD Particip...
