Abstract: Objective: Neural health refers to the condition and functionality of the auditory nerve fibers (ANFs), essential for transmitting sound signals from the cochlea to the brain. However, ...

Intra-arterial Paraplatin did not cause hearing loss in children with retinoblastoma, as shown by DPOAE testing. DPOAE testing is a noninvasive, reliable method for assessing cochlear function and ...

The Missouri House voted overwhelmingly Thursday to expand coverage for hearing aids and cochlear implants for adults enrolled in Medicaid. The bill now heads to the Senate for consideration.

The brain may play a role in helping the ear regulate its sensitivity to sound and compensate for hearing loss by sending a signal to a structure in the inner ear known as the cochlea, according to a ...

Uniquely among our sensory organs, the ear expends energy to amplify the very stimuli that it detects. This “active process” endows the cochlea with exceptional sensitivity, sharp frequency tuning, ...
