The evolution of human language is one of the oldest questions in paleoanthropology.
Nevertheless, many previous attempts to approach this question have not yielded …

Características como a freqüência de ressonância da orelha externa e da orelha média
podem interferir na captação das emissões otoacústicas. OBJETIVO: Investigar a influência …

Current clinical practice is often unable to identify the causes of conductive hearing loss in
the middle ear with sufficient certainty without exploratory surgery. Besides the large …

The anterior tympanomeatal angle (ATA) blunting is clinically defined as a certain degree of
the ATA obliteration due to excessive fibrous tissue formation, which is a relatively common …

Objective: For more than a century, positive and/or negative ear canal air pressure (ECP)
has often been employed to simulate negative middle ear pressure (MEP) in exploring the …

An acoustical transmission line model of the middle-ear cavities and mastoid air cell system
(MACS) was constructed for the adult human middle ear with normal function. The air-filled …

The mechanics of the outer and middle ear have been the objective of much research and
many publications. Some of these works use comparative methodology to deduce the …

The occlusion effect is commonly experienced by in-ear device wearers as an increased
loudness sensation of bone-conducted low frequency sounds. A widespread theory …

Characteristics of how external and middle ear resonance frequency can impact the capture
of otoacoustic emissions. Aim: to study the impact of external and middle ear resonance …

The middle ear helps convert compressional sound waves in the ear canal into transverse
traveling waves in the cochlea. This chapter presents a conceptual framework for …
