UNLABELLED The G/BBB syndrome is a rare condition characterized by hypertelorism, cleft lip and palate, and hypospadias. No studies were found on the hearing of individuals with this syndrome. AIM To investigate the auditory function in patients with G/BBB syndrome, such as the occurrence of hearing loss, and central and peripheral auditory nerve conduction. METHODS Fourteen male patients a...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Hyperbillirubinemia in infants have been associated with neuronal damage including in the auditory system. Some researchers have suggested that the bilirubin-induced auditory neuronal damages may be temporary and reversible. This study was aimed at investigating the auditory neuropathy and reversibility of auditory abnormalities in hyperbillirubinemic infants. SUBJEC...

introduction: the hallmark of vitiligo is the disappearance of melanocytes from the skin due to an as yet unidentified mechanism. the presence of melanocytes in the auditory apparatus suggests that this system could possibly be affected by vitiligo, which targets the melanocytes of the whole body and not just the skin.the purpose of this study was to assess the incidence of auditory alterations...

Background and Objective: Binaural interaction component has been seen to be effective in assessing the binaural interaction process in normal hearing individuals. However, there is a lack of literature regarding the effects of SNHL on the Binaural Interaction Component of ABR. Hence, it is necessary to study binaural interaction occurs at the brainstem when there is an associated hearing impai...

Under adequate stimulus intensities, the power spectra of normal auditory evoked brainstem responses (ABR) are mainly composed of three major parts, i.e. component A (0 approximately 350Hz), B (350-700Hz). and C (700-1200Hz). By means of digital filter using fast Fourier transform, three derived ABR waveforms consist of each component of the power spectrum were obtained and named component wave...

A 34-year-old female presented to our clinic with complaints of hearing loss, tinnitus, and severe rotational vertigo. A test battery including complete audiometric testing, auditory brainstem response (ABR) audiometry, electronystagmography (ENG), electrocochleography (ECoG), and dehydration testing was performed. Monitoring of hearing sensitivity, speech understanding, and ECoG responses foll...
