RESEARCHES ON PERCEPTION DEAFNESS; ESPECIALLY ITS CLINICAL STUDIES

Clinical studies of hypothermic perfusion by the hemodilution technique, especially its influence on water and electrolytes changes, and renal function.

Hypothermic low flow cardiopulmonary bypass with hemodilution technique was performed in open-heart surgery in the author's clinic. To evaluate the usefulness of this perfusicn, renal hemodynamics during total bypass, and its influence on renal function were studied. The average effective renal blood flow during total bypass at the perfusion rate of 50 to 60 ml per kg per minute under mild or m...

Deafness and Its Alleviation

The operation that Mr. Vincent Nesfield now describes for the alleviation of chronic deafness does not give us the thrill of a novelty. It was advocated by Aristide Malherbe as many as 29 or 30 years ago, and then quickly was lost sight of until its present resuscitation. Briefly the operation is one in which a new communication is made from the outside through the mastoid cortex posterior to t...

Body Perception and Action Following Deafness

The effect of deafness on sensory abilities has been the topic of extensive investigation over the past decades. These investigations have mostly focused on visual capacities. We are only now starting to investigate how the deaf experience their own bodies and body-related abilities. Indeed, a growing corpus of research suggests that auditory input could play an important role in body-related p...

Action–perception mismatch in tone-deafness

The source of conscious experience has fueled scientific and philosophical debates for centuries. In the auditory and motor domains, it is not yet known how consciously and unconsciously obtained information combine to enable the production and perception of speaking and singing. Both forms of vocalization rely upon the interaction of brain networks responsible for perception and action. While ...
