Auditory nerve perinodal dysmyelination in noise-induced hearing loss.
Exposure to loud sound (acoustic overexposure; AOE) induces hearing loss and damages cellular structures at multiple locations in the auditory pathway. Whether AOE can also induce changes in myelin sheaths of the auditory nerve (AN) is an important issue particularly because these changes can be responsible for impaired action potential propagation along the AN. Here we investigate the effects ...
متن کاملAuditory brainstem responses in noise-induced permanent hearing loss.
Fifty-four patients (108 ears) with presumed noise-induced hearing loss, were subjected to tonal and speech audiometry, impedance tests and measurements of auditory brainstem responses (ABR), in order to check for possible retrocochlear involvement. ABR data indicated that latency values of waves I, III and V, as well as III-I, V-III and V-I intervals fell within the normal range in all cases (...
متن کاملResponse growth with sound level in auditory-nerve fibers after noise-induced hearing loss.
People with sensorineural hearing loss are often constrained by a reduced acoustic dynamic range associated with loudness recruitment; however, the neural correlates of loudness and recruitment are still not well understood. The growth of auditory-nerve (AN) activity with sound level was compared in normal-hearing cats and in cats with a noise-induced hearing loss to test the hypothesis that AN...
متن کاملNormal and impaired level encoding: Effects of noise- induced hearing loss on auditory-nerve responses
A major constraint for listeners with sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) is the reduced acoustic dynamic range associated with loudness recruitment; however, the physiological correlates of loudness and recruitment are still not well understood. Recent psychophysical results challenge some of the classic concepts of recruitment (Buus and Florentine 2001), and suggest that the dynamic range of lo...
متن کاملNoise-induced hearing loss increases the temporal precision of complex envelope coding by auditory-nerve fibers
While changes in cochlear frequency tuning are thought to play an important role in the perceptual difficulties of people with sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL), the possible role of temporal processing deficits remains less clear. Our knowledge of temporal envelope coding in the impaired cochlea is limited to two studies that examined auditory-nerve fiber responses to narrowband amplitude modu...
