Sensory perception: supernormal hearing in the blind? (1/1506)

A recent experimental study suggests that blind individuals may compensate for their lack of vision with better-than-normal hearing. This provides support for a view dating back to 18th century philosophers, but the data raise as many problems as they solve.  (+info)

Gene disruption of p27(Kip1) allows cell proliferation in the postnatal and adult organ of corti. (2/1506)

Hearing loss is most often the result of hair-cell degeneration due to genetic abnormalities or ototoxic and traumatic insults. In the postembryonic and adult mammalian auditory sensory epithelium, the organ of Corti, no hair-cell regeneration has ever been observed. However, nonmammalian hair-cell epithelia are capable of regenerating sensory hair cells as a consequence of nonsensory supporting-cell proliferation. The supporting cells of the organ of Corti are highly specialized, terminally differentiated cell types that apparently are incapable of proliferation. At the molecular level terminally differentiated cells have been shown to express high levels of cell-cycle inhibitors, in particular, cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors [Parker, S. B., et al. (1995) Science 267, 1024-1027], which are thought to be responsible for preventing these cells from reentering the cell cycle. Here we report that the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p27(Kip1) is selectively expressed in the supporting-cell population of the organ of Corti. Effects of p27(Kip1)-gene disruption include ongoing cell proliferation in postnatal and adult mouse organ of Corti at time points well after mitosis normally has ceased during embryonic development. This suggests that release from p27(Kip1)-induced cell-cycle arrest is sufficient to allow supporting-cell proliferation to occur. This finding may provide an important pathway for inducing hair-cell regeneration in the mammalian hearing organ.  (+info)

Assessment of hearing in 80 inbred strains of mice by ABR threshold analyses. (3/1506)

The common occurrence of hearing loss in both humans and mice, and the anatomical and functional similarities of their inner ears, attest to the potential of mice being used as models to study inherited hearing loss. A large-scale, auditory screening project is being undertaken at The Jackson Laboratory (TJL) to identify mice with inherited hearing disorders. To assess hearing sensitivity, at least five mice from each inbred strain had auditory brainstem response (ABR) thresholds determined. Thus far, we have screened 80 inbred strains of mice; 60 of them exhibited homogeneous ABR threshold values not significantly different from those of the control strain CBA/CaJ. This large database establishes a reliable reference for normal hearing mouse strains. The following 16 inbred strains exhibited significantly elevated ABR thresholds before the age of 3 months: 129/J, 129/ReJ, 129/SvJ, A/J, ALR/LtJ, ALS/LtJ, BUB/BnJ, C57BLKS/J, C57BR/cdJ, C57L/J, DBA/2J, I/LnJ, MA/MyJ, NOD/LtJ, NOR/LtJ, and SKH2/J. These hearing impaired strains may serve as models for some forms of human non-syndromic hearing loss and aid in the identification of the underlying genes.  (+info)

Inner ear damage in guinea pigs exposed to stable and impulse noise. (4/1506)

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the inner ear damage after exposure to stable noise, impulse noise and stable plus impulse noise in guinea pigs. METHODS: Ninety-six healthy guinea pigs were divided into 3 equal groups. (1) Stable noise group: exposed to 110 dBA stable noise for 3 days, 4 hours per day. (2) Impulse noise group: exposed to 165 dBA simulated cannon fire impulse noise 10 times successively at an interval of 10 seconds. (3) stable plus impulse noise group: exposed to the same stable noise as that in the first group, then after a 2-hour rest, the animals were followed with impulse noise exposures as that in the second group. After those exposure, each of the 3 groups was further divided into 4 subgroups according to the time after the noise exposure, namely, the right after, 7 d, 14 d and 30 d groups. The evoked cortical potential responses to click and tone burst stimulation sound were examined. The surface preparation and celloidine embedded serial section of the cochlea were observed under a light microscope. RESULTS: Both the stable and impulse noise could increase the hearing threshold and damage the inner ear hair cells. The damage in the first group was relatively slight, whereas in group 3 the damage was more severe than that in the other 2 groups. CONCLUSION: For seamen who are working in heavy noise environment, corresponding measures should be taken to protect their ears from noise which induces hearing loss.  (+info)

Single-unit responses in the inferior colliculus of decerebrate cats. I. Classification based on frequency response maps. (5/1506)

This study proposes a classification system for neurons in the central nucleus of the inferior colliculus (ICC) that is based on excitation and inhibition patterns of single-unit responses in decerebrate cats. The decerebrate preparation allowed extensive characterization of physiological response types without the confounding effects of anesthesia. The tone-driven discharge rates of individual units were measured across a range of frequencies and levels to map excitatory and inhibitory response areas for contralateral monaural stimulation. The resulting frequency response maps can be grouped into the following three populations: type V maps exhibit a wide V-shaped excitatory area and no inhibition; type I maps show a more restricted I-shaped region of excitation that is flanked by inhibition at lower and higher frequencies; and type O maps display an O-shaped island of excitation at low stimulus levels that is bounded by inhibition at higher levels. Units that produce a type V map typically have a low best frequency (BF: the most sensitive frequency), a low rate of spontaneous activity, and monotonic rate-level functions for both BF tones and broadband noise. Type I and type O units have BFs that span the cat's range of audible frequencies and high rates of spontaneous activity. Like type V units, type I units are excited by BF tones and noise at all levels, but their rate-level functions may become nonmonotonic at high levels. Type O units are inhibited by BF tones and noise at high levels. The existence of distinct response types is consistent with a conceptual model in which the unit types receive dominant inputs from different sources and shows that these functionally segregated pathways are specialized to play complementary roles in the processing of auditory information.  (+info)

Single-unit responses in the inferior colliculus of decerebrate cats. II. Sensitivity to interaural level differences. (6/1506)

Single units in the central nucleus of the inferior colliculus (ICC) of unanesthetized decerebrate cats can be grouped into three distinct types (V, I, and O) according to the patterns of excitation and inhibition revealed in contralateral frequency response maps. This study extends the description of these response types by assessing their ipsilateral and binaural response map properties. Here the nature of ipsilateral inputs is evaluated directly using frequency response maps and compared with results obtained from methods that rely on sensitivity to interaural level differences (ILDs). In general, there is a one-to-one correspondence between observed ipsilateral input characteristics and those inferred from ILD manipulations. Type V units receive ipsilateral excitation and show binaural facilitation (EE properties); type I and type O units receive ipsilateral inhibition and show binaural excitatory/inhibitory (EI) interactions. Analyses of binaural frequency response maps show that these ILD effects extend over the entire receptive field of ICC units. Thus the range of frequencies that elicits excitation from type V units is expanded with increasing levels of ipsilateral stimulation, whereas the excitatory bandwidth of type I and O units decreases under the same binaural conditions. For the majority of ICC units, application of bicuculline, an antagonist for GABAA-mediated inhibition, does not alter the basic effects of binaural stimulation; rather, it primarily increases spontaneous and maximum discharge rates. These results support our previous interpretations of the putative dominant inputs to ICC response types and have important implications for midbrain processing of competing free-field sounds that reach the listener with different directional signatures.  (+info)

Frequency selective effects of alcohol on auditory detection and frequency discrimination thresholds. (8/1506)

In the first of two experiments, the effects of ethyl alcohol on monaural and binaural thresholds for pure tones were measured for a range of frequencies. The results showed a frequency-specific effect in which low frequencies were more severely affected than higher ones. Also, monaural thresholds tended to be more affected by alcohol than binaural ones. The second experiment extended this exploration by measuring frequency discrimination at several different frequencies. In this case, we also obtained a frequency-dependent effect: the increase in discrimination thresholds above 1000 Hz was three times greater than that for lower frequencies. The data suggest that the choice of stimuli may influence the ability to detect changes in auditory performance after alcohol and may account in part for the differences among earlier studies. The results are consistent with the hypothesis that alcohol is acting centrally, at the level of mechanisms involved in the temporal and binaural summation of auditory signals, rather than influencing peripheral structures.  (+info)

The absolute threshold of hearing (ATH) is the minimum loudness of a pure tone that an average ear with normal hearing can hear with no other sound present. The absolute threshold relates to the sound that can just be heard by the organism. This is also known as the auditory threshold. The threshold of hearing in humans is 20 µPa (micropascals) = 2×10−5 pascal (Pa). The tympanic membrane of the ear operates as a sound pressure sensor, as does a microphone ...
Objective: The aim of the current study was to assess aided speech-in-noise outcomes and relate those measures to auditory sensitivity and processing, different types of cognitive processing abilities, and signal processing in hearing aids.. Material and method: Participants were 200 hearing-aid wearers, with a mean age of 60.8 years, 43% females, with average hearing thresholds in the better ear of 37.4 dB HL. Tests of auditory functions were hearing thresholds, DPOAEs, tests of fine structure processing, IHC dead regions, spectro-temporal modulation, and speech recognition in quiet (PB words). Tests of cognitive processing function were tests of phonological skills, working memory, executive functions and inference making abilities, and general cognitive tests (e.g., tests of cognitive decline and IQ). The outcome test variables were the Hagerman sentences with 50 and 80% speech recognition levels, using two different noises (stationary speech weighted noise and 4-talker babble), and three ...

Estimates of cochlear traveling wave velocity (TWV) were computed from derived band auditory brain-stem response (ABR) latencies in 24 normal-hearing subjects. Wave V latencies were determined for each of six derived frequency bands (unmasked-8 kHz, 8-4 kHz, 4-2 kHz, 2-1 kHz, 1 kHz-500 Hz, and 500-250 Hz). Representative frequencies were assigned to the derived bands by estimating their energy midpoints, and cochlear positions corresponding to these frequencies were determined using Greenwoods [J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 33, 1344-1356 (1961)] place-frequency function for humans. Two procedures were used to estimate TWV. In one procedure, an exponential function of the form l = A + BeCd was fitted to each subjects latency-by-distance data using a least-squares algorithm, and a TWV function was generated by taking the inverse derivative of the latency function with respect to time. In the second procedure, average TWVs between adjacent derived bands were computed directly from subjects ipsilateral wave V
We can better estimate an audio system if errors can be assigned audible significance. Recently established data of the auditory filter is developed into models that predict the audibility, detectability and loudness or errors.

Particular attention is paid to determining the audibility of different noise-bands, especially near absolute...
The well - selected testing machines enable fatigue testing of materials samples and components at very high test frequencies (f ≤ 20 kHz), allowing a highly accelerated determination of cyclic material characteristics. Significantly shorter test times are advantageous, for example, in the development accompanying component validation or the time-critical analysis of different development approaches. This so-called short-term diagnosis allows to provide fast data for FE calculations or to evaluate different manufacturing parameters in relative comparison. Especially in the range of very high load cycles, the state (for example microstructural change due to heat treatment) of the investigated material can decisively influence the fatigue behavior. As a result, a lifetime prediction with known regulations such as the FKM guideline - Computational fatigue analysis for machine components, may be too conservative or the strength capacity of the material is overestimated. For the best possible ...
in which dB is the sound pressure level, p is the measured sound pressure, and pr is an reference sound pressure. Sound measures of decibels are measures of relative intensity, so it is important to know what both sounds are. The formula is a little different than what is in the text, but the both give the same numbers. Since sound pressure is relative, if your pr is larger than your p, you will get negative values. You might see negative numbers on some audio equipment, that is using the loudest sound as the pr so all the volume settings are that loud (a dB of 0) or less. We will use this way of doing decibels in this illustration. In this illustration, to help you experience decibels and get a feel for how they relate to sound pressure level, you can try different decebel steps and here how the loudness changes. ...

Over the last twenty years there has been a revolution in our understanding of the mechanisms of sound analysis in the normal cochlea. Along with this, the mechanisms associated with cochlear hearing loss are also much better understood. However, these improvements in our understanding have been mainly in terms of physiological mechanisms. This book emphasizes the perceptual changes associated with cochlear hearing loss and relates these to the underlying physiological mechanisms. This provides a theoretical framework for understanding and interpreting the perceptual changes. The results obtained with hearing-impaired people have important implications for theories of normal perception, especially in relation to loudness, temporal processing, and pitch perception. The data and theories surveyed are used to draw up guidelines for the design of signal-processing hearing aids to compensate for perceptual abnormalities.

Hearing screening should be conducted in a clinical or natural environment that is conducive to obtaining reliable screening results and that is free from auditory and visual distractions and interruptions. In addition, the location should allow for privacy and confidentiality.. Perform daily listening checks to rule out defects in major pure-tone screening components. Ambient noise levels may exceed ANSI standards for pure-tone threshold testing in audiometric test rooms (ANSI, 2013) but must be sufficiently low to allow accurate screening. A sound level meter, if available, may be used to establish maximum permissible noise levels at 25 dB HL for the earphone to be used during screening (i.e., supra-aural or insert earphones). However, when a sound level meter is not available, a biologic check is suitable.. ...

Sound can be measured as a change in pressure when sound waves reach the ear or a measuring device. Sound exposure is usually measured in decibels of sound pressure level (dB SPL), which is a measure of the sound pressure level relative to the lowest hearing threshold of the young, healthy ear set as 0 dB. The scale is logarithmic and a ten-fold increase in the sound pressure level measured corresponds to an increase by 20 dB SPL.

The amount by which the SNR exceeds the detection threshold, DT, is called the signal excess (SE):. SE (decibels) = SNR - DT = (SL - 2TL + TS - NL) - DT. If the SE is greater than 0 dB, then the decision is made that the target is present. If the SE is negative, the decision is that the target is not present.. If the detection threshold is set high (which is equivalent to assuming that the signal power is high relative to the noise) only strong targets will exceed the threshold and be detected. There will not be many false alarms in which noise is mistakenly decided to be the signal of interest; however, there may be many misses in which the signal, though present, is not detected. If the threshold is set low, weaker targets will be detected, but the number of false alarms will also increase.. The following figure shows the importance of setting the detection threshold. The top trace (a) shows three target echoes with different amplitudes. The middle trace (b) shows the noise. The bottom ...
This study assessed variability in the length and age compositions, longevity, length-at-age and rates of growth and mortality of the east Australian stout whiting Sillago robusta Stead, 1908 population harvested by demersal trawl fisheries. Sampling was done over 2 years and was spatially stratified across three depth strata between 11 and 90 m at two locations approximately 400 km apart. There were no consistent depth-related differences in length and age compositions, but the mean and median length and age of the population was greater at the lower latitude location. Age classes 2 and 3 years dominated samples in the north, and 1 and 2 years in the south. Observed longevity was 10 years in the north, and 6 years in the south. Mean length-at-age was not consistently different between sexes, years or locations, nor did the von Bertalanffy growth function differ significantly between sexes, even though females had a greater estimated L 8 (23.45 cm FL) compared to males (22.36 cm FL).

In the upper part of Figure 5 simulation results are shown for the MS-model with dissemination proportional to V2/3 and V1/3, the lower part shows the results for the GDR-model, again with a V2/3 and V1/3 dependency. For both models a variation of the growth characteristics with an artificially slewed down growth behaviour of the metastatic cells are calculated and included in the plots. For the GDR-model this growth behaviour was achieved by starting the metastatic growth process with the doubling rate of the time step the malignant cell has being disseminated. Taking the same generation time TG and error rate for mitosis as for the primary tumour, a reduced initial doubling rate consequently leads to a reduced maximal colony size of the metastases.

  • Further, I acknowledge my ability and willingness to alert Adaptive Expeditions staff or volunteers if at any point in time I reassess my general fitness to participate or my ability to perform these minimal functional thresholds for safe participation. (smartwaiver.com)
  • Background: Hearing threshold and the ability to localize sound sources are reduced underwater. (semanticscholar.org)
  • The absolute threshold relates to the sound that can just be heard by the organism. (wn.com)
  • The threshold of hearing is generally reported as the RMS sound pressure of 20 micropascals , corresponding to a sound intensity of 0.98 pW/m 2 at 1 atmosphere and 25 °C. It is approximately the quietest sound a young human with undamaged hearing can detect at 1,000 Hz . (wn.com)
  • Cepstrum-smoothed sound power spectra of stridulatory sounds calculated for a distance of 5 cm from the hydrophone compared to auditory thresholds in the six size groups tested. (biomedcentral.com)
  • Hyperacusis is frequently coupled with headaches or pain caused by a relatively low sound tolerance threshold. (vladpup.org)
  • While completing his Ph.D. at Vandy, Chris began studying the relationship between nutrient intake and auditory function, as well as Type I diabetes and susceptibility to hearing loss. (audiologyonline.com)
  • Furthermore, the speech-in-noise (SIN) threshold was negatively correlated with the noise-induced change in H2 (for FFR ENV ) and the S-R correlation for FFR ENV in the quiet condition. (frontiersin.org)
  • Immediate post-noise hearing thresholds were obtained followed by post-noise treatments at 1 hour then twice-daily for 2 days. (noiseandhealth.org)
  • Estimated prevalence of noise induced hearing threshold shifts among children 6 to 19 years of age: The third national health and nutritional examination survey. (cdc.gov)
  • One interesting thing I have been able to measure is that, alone, alcohol actually raises one's auditory thresholds (how quiet something can be and still be heard,) but when I have tried the same experiment with certain concentrations of alcohol containing certain sugar and citric acid proportions, I can actually lower some auditory thresholds. (stereophile.com)
  • Aging raises this threshold. (medlineplus.gov)
  • All patients received auditory and speech rehabilitation and we evaluated their speech and auditory outcome. (indianjotol.org)
  • Understanding external auditory speech normally and naturally requires at least two stages: auditory processing of the signal and language-based processing of that information 4 . (nature.com)
  • This level can be a determined level above the speech threshold or a level the patient reports to be most comfortable, or at 65 dBHL (where speech is heard for the listener with hearing within normal limits). (hearingreview.com)
