Hearing difficulties are the most commonly reported disabilities among veterans. Blast
exposures during explosive events likely play a role, given their propensity to directly …

Previous work has debated about the comparisons of hearing abilities faced with alterations
in hearing thresholds and evoked potentials between groups following acoustic trauma-or …

Blast-induced hearing difficulties affect thousands of veterans and civilians. The long-term
impact of even a mild blast exposure on the central auditory system is hypothesized to …

Introduction Real time modulation of brainstem frequency-following responses (FFRs) by
online changes in cortical arousal state via the corticofugal (top-down) pathway has been …

Amplitude and frequency modulations are important for speech intelligibility, especially in
noise. Neurophysiological responses assessed by envelope following responses (EFRs) …

Abstract Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) is one of the most prevalent causes of injury in young
adults, and is a leading cause of hospitalization, disability, and even death. Although severe …

Realtime modulation of brainstem frequency-following responses (FFRs) by online changes
in cortical arousal state via the corticofugal (top-down) pathway has been demonstrated …

Hearing loss of various types is increasingly plaguing our modern world (Geneva: World
Health Organization 2018). As the life expectancy increased in the industrialized world, age …

Blast-induced traumatic brain injury (b-TBI) is regarded as the 'signature injury'of modern
violent conflict. It has been repeatedly linked to numerous neuropathologies, which are …

Speech understanding difficulties are a common problem for older adults. Past research has
indicated that underlying mechanisms could vary from damage to the ear, deficits in the …
