ABSTRACT Purpose: to compare the Auditory Middle Latency Response in adults, one group with and another without altered auditory skills. In addition, aim was cut-off values of 30% 50% for Ear Effect terms sensitivity specificity. Methods: sample comprised 32 individuals both genders no hearing loss who were divided into Group 1 (16 alterations skills) 2 skills). All participants received an aud...

INTRODUCTION One of the most common pathologies in neonates is hyperbilirubinemia, which is a good marker for damage to the central nervous system. The sensitivity of the auditory system to bilirubin has been previously documented, with much discrepancy in its effects on Auditory Brainstem Response results. Thus the objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of hyperbilirubinemia on Au...

Accurate assessment of neonatal hearing screening performance is impossible without knowledge of the true status of hearing, a prohibitive requirement that necessitates a complete diagnostic evaluation on all babies screened. The purpose of this study was to circumvent this limitation by integrating two types of screening measures obtained near simultaneously on every baby. Peripheral auditory ...

speech delay with an unknown cause is a problem among children. this diagnosis is the last differential diagnosis after observing normal findings in routine hearing tests. the present study was undertaken to determine whether auditory brainstem responses to click stimuli are different between normally developing children and children suffering from delayed speech with unknown causes. in this cr...

Fragile X Syndrome (FXS), a neurodevelopmental disorder, is the most prevalent single-gene cause of autism spectrum disorder. Autism has been associated with impaired auditory processing, abnormalities in the auditory brainstem response (ABR), and reduced cell number and size in the auditory brainstem nuclei. FXS is characterized by elevated cortical responses to sound stimuli, with some eviden...

INTRODUCTION Hyperbilirubinemia is a common health problem in newborns. Its effects can be different according to the level and duration of the hyperbilirubinemia. The toxic effect of bilirubin on the auditory system can be seen as a sensory neural hearing loss or auditory neuropathy spectrum disorder (ANSD). OBJECTIVE The purpose of our study was to determine the effects of toxic bilirubin l...

OBJECTIVE To investigate whether hormone replacement therapy modifies the auditory brainstem response in postmenopausal women. METHODS Nineteen postmenopausal women received hormone replacement therapy (study group) and 25 received no treatment nor placebo (control group). In both groups, age ranged from 45 to 60 years and pure-tone sensitivity was 25 dB or better at frequencies between 500 a...

Auditory Brainstem Response (ABR) is an auditory evoked potential extracted from ongoing electrical activity in the brain. ABR is especially used for newbornand children hearing screening, auditory threshold estimation, and brainstem lesion detection in response to stimuli such as click sound, tone burst or chirp. In order to support clinical decision making the analysis of ABR signals must exh...

Title: Intracochlear factors affect the auditory brainstem response to intracochlear electrical stimulation in cat [Abstract] Date: auditory brainstem response to intracochlear electrical stimulation in cat [Abstract]. In Cochlear implant and related sciences update : 1st Asia Pacific Symposium on Cochlear Intracochlear factors affect the auditory brainstem response to intracochlear electrical ...

Models of the human auditory periphery range from very basic functional descriptions of auditory filtering to detailed computational models of cochlear mechanics, inner-hair cell (IHC), auditory-nerve (AN) and brainstem signal processing. It is challenging to include detailed physiological descriptions of cellular components into human auditory models because single-cell data stems from invasiv...
