In this review we discuss the consequences to the brain's cortex, specifically to the sensory cortex, of traumatic brain injury. The thesis underlying this approach is that long-term deficits in cognition seen after brain damage in humans are likely underpinned by an impaired cortical processing of the sensory information needed to drive cognition or to be used by cognitive processes to produce...
Hearing loss is the most common sensory deficit in the elderly, and it is becoming a severe social and health problem. Especially in the elderly, hearing loss can impair the exchange of information, thus significantly impacting everyday life, causing loneliness, isolation, dependence, and frustration, as well as communication disorders. Due to the aging of the population in the developed world,...
Aim: The human body is kept in balance by a complicated process including visual, vestibular, and proprioceptive information. Since the postural control systems require information from all three sensory systems in order to achieve or maintain optimal postural stability, the absence of information of one system may have an influence on body sway during balance .The purpose of this study was to ...
BACKGROUND The different perception and assessment of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neurotoxicity (CIPN) between healthcare providers and patients has not yet been fully addressed, although these two approaches might eventually lead to inconsistent, possibly conflicting interpretation, especially regarding sensory impairment. PATIENTS AND METHODS A cohort of 281 subjects with stable CIPN wa...
We reviewed 27 published studies examining a possible association between sensory (visual or hearing) impairment and late-life psychosis with paranoid features. A majority of these investigations supported the postulated association between hearing impairment and late-onset schizophrenia or paranoid disorder. Many of the published studies, however, had important methodological limitations. In a...
The frequencies of hearing impairment (HI), vision impairment (VI), or dual (hearing and vision) sensory impairment (DSI) in patients with blast-related traumatic brain injury (TBI) and their effects on functional recovery are not well documented. In this preliminary study of 175 patients admitted to a Polytrauma Rehabilitation Center, we completed hearing and vision examinations and obtained F...
The access of students with sensory deficits to quality educational services persists as one the challenges higher education worldwide. This work aims determine level and technical support that three Ecuadorian universities offer hearing impairment for development reading skills. mixed approach scientific research is used data collection. instrument Inclusive Education Access Questionnaire crea...
Preserving older adults' sense of hearing and helping them to maintain communication in the face of changes that occur with age are areas of concern for nurses. In addition to reviewing the types of hearing impairment, this article emphasizes assessment strategies and interventions that nurses can use across settings. This is Part 1 of a two-part article on sensory impairment in older adults; i...
We disrupted periodicity cues by temporally jittering the speech signal to explore how such distortion might affect word identification. Jittering distorts the fine structure of the speech signal with negligible alteration of either its long-term spectral or amplitude envelope characteristics. In Experiment 1, word identification in noise was significantly reduced in young, normal-hearing adult...
The effect of cochlear hearing loss and of probe tone level on slopes and sharpness of compound action potential tuning curves was investigated. Thirty-one simultaneously masked isoreduction (50%) tuning curves were determined in 26 adults with cochlear hearing losses up to 60 dB. Probe tone frequency was 2 or 3 kHz. Probe tone level was chosen as close as possible to the action potential thres...
