Throughout our adult lives there is a decline in peripheral hearing, auditory processing and
elements of cognition that support listening ability. Audiometry provides no information about …

The current gold standard of clinical hearing assessment includes a pure-tone audiogram
combined with a word recognition task. This retrospective study tests the hypothesis that …

Deficits in auditory nerve (AN) function for older adults reduce afferent input to the cortex.
The extent to which the cortex in older adults adapts to this loss of afferent input and the …

In search of biomarkers for cochlear neural degeneration (CND) in electrocochleography
from humans with normal thresholds, we high-pass and low-pass filtered the responses to …

Healthy aging leads to complex changes in the functional network of speech processing in a
noisy environment. The dual‐route neural architecture has been applied to the study of …

Aging is associated with auditory nerve (AN) functional deficits and decreased inhibition in
the central auditory system, amplifying central responses in a process referred to here as …

Auditory nerve (AN) function has been hypothesized to deteriorate with age and noise
exposure. Here, we perform a systematic review of published studies and find that the …

Profound congenital sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) prevents children from developing
spoken language. Cochlear implantation and auditory brainstem implantation can provide …

Objective: This study assessed the relationship between electrophysiological measures of
the electrically evoked compound action potential (eCAP) and speech perception scores …

Accumulating evidence suggests that cochlear deafferentation may contribute to
suprathreshold deficits observed with or without elevated hearing thresholds, and can lead …
