Pitch-synchronous response of cat cochlear nerve fibers to speech sounds.

Responses of individual fibers of the cat cochlear nerve to Japanese monosyllabic speech sounds were described. Responses were analyzed by making post-stimulus time histograms and "pitch-synchronous" period histograms. Almost all neurons responsive to speech sounds showed repetitive discharges synchronous with the pitch period irrespective of their characteristic frequencies (CF). The frequency...

The use of cortical auditory evoked potentials to evaluate neural encoding of speech sounds in adults.

There has been considerable recent interest in the use of cortical auditory evoked potentials (CAEPs) as an electrophysiological measure of human speech encoding in individuals with normal as well as impaired auditory systems. The development of such electrophysiological measures such as CAEPs is important because they can be used to evaluate the benefits of hearing aids and cochlear implants i...

Acoustic Sensitivity of the Saccule and Daf Music

  Introduction:   The daf is a large Persian frame drum used as a musical instrument in both popular and classical music which can induce a percussive sound at low frequencies (146–290 Hz) with peaks of up to 130 dBspl. The percussive sounds have a power distribution in the region of saccular sensitivity. In view of the saccular stimulation by sound in humans, we decided to use cervical vestibu...

Nerve impulses in individual auditory nerve fibers of guinea pig.

To UNDERSTAND how the cochlea analyzes and responds to complex sound stimuli, it is desirable to know what kind of message individual nerve fibers carry from the ear to the central nervous system. In 1942, Galambos and and Davis (9) recorded electric responses of single ganglion cells in the cochlear nucleus, which they once believed to be from single auditory nerve fibers. Those responses, rec...

Mass Potentials Recorded at the Round Window Enable the Detection of Low Spontaneous Rate Fibers in Gerbil Auditory Nerve

Auditory nerve fibers (ANFs) transmit acoustic information from the sensory hair cells to the cochlear nuclei. In experimental and clinical audiology, probing the whole ANF population remains a difficult task, as the ANFs differ greatly in their threshold and onset response to sound. Thus, low spontaneous rate (SR) fibers, which have rather higher thresholds, delay and larger jitter in their fi...

Epidural Auditory Event-Related Potentials in the Rat to Frequency and duration Deviants: Evidence of Mismatch Negativity?

The capacity of the human brain to detect deviance in the acoustic environment pre-attentively is reflected in a brain event-related potential (ERP), mismatch negativity (MMN). MMN is observed in response to the presentation of rare oddball sounds that deviate from an otherwise regular pattern of frequent background standard sounds. While the primate and cat auditory cortex (AC) exhibit MMN-lik...
