Objective: Short-term noise exposure that induces transient changes in thresholds has
induced permanent cochlear synaptopathy in multiple species. Here, the literature was …

The primary aim of this study was to investigate whether auditory brainstem response (ABR)
and speech perception in noise (SPiN) were associated with occupational noise exposure in …

Objectives The objective of the study was to identify the acute high-intensity recreational
noise-induced effects on auditory function, especially the cochlear synaptopathy-related …

This study tested hypothesized relationships between noise exposure and auditory deficits.
Both retrospective assessment of potential associations between noise exposure history and …

Exposure to loud sound places the auditory system at considerable risk, especially when the
exposure is routine. The current study examined the impact of routine auditory overexposure …

Recent animal studies have shown that the synapses between inner hair cells and the
dendrites of the spiral ganglion cells they innervate are the elements in the cochlea most …

Animal studies demonstrate that noise exposure can permanently damage the synapses
between inner hair cells and auditory nerve fibers, even when outer hair cells are intact and …

Objective: In humans, the accepted clinical standards for detecting hearing loss are the
behavioral audiogram, based on the absolute detection threshold of pure-tones, and the …

Noise exposure that causes a temporary threshold shift but no permanent threshold shift can
cause degeneration of synaptic ribbons and afferent nerve fibers, with a corresponding …

Purpose To compare the ability of the auditory brainstem response to complex sounds
(cABR) to predict subjective ratings of speech understanding in noise on the Speech …
