A distortion product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAE) assessment of cochlear function in tinnitus subjects with normal hearing sensitivity
… used distortion product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAEs) to evaluate the cochlear amplifier of 13 tinnitus subjects and 13 non-tinnitus subjects (matched by age, sex, and audiogram) across a broad range of frequencies and intensities. DPOAE magnitudes were measured for at least 52 frequencies (500 …

Fine structure in distortion product otoacoustic emissions and auditory perception
… of distortion-product-otoacoustic-emission (DPOAE) generation and so to increase the value of DPOAE measurements as a diagnostic tool. In chapter 2+3 the results from experiments and modeling of properties of DPOAE-fine structure in normal hearing and hearing impaired subjects give strong …

Longitudinal outcomes of distortion product otoacoustic emissions and wideband reflectance in infants
… to describe outcomes of distortion product OAE (DPOAE) screening in infants at birth, and one, four, eight, and twelve weeks of age. In addition, wideband reflectance (WBR) measures, which have the potential to help characterize outer-ear canal and middle-ear function, were examined to determine …

Investigation of acquired hearing loss in dopamine beta hydroxylase (DBH)-mutant mice
… and distortion-product otoacoustic emission (DPOAE) thresholds, as well as sound-induced umbo velocity, and used standard histological techniques to study normal and pathological middle-ear anatomy. Anatomical analyses included observation of tympanic membrane and ossicular structures, …

Modelling the cochlear origins of distortion product otoacoustic emissions
Distortion product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAEs) arise within the cochlea in response to two<br/>stimulus tones (f1 and f2) at frequencies such as 2f1 ? f2 and 2f2 ? f1. Each DPOAE derives from two<br/>contributing mechanisms within the cochlea: a distributed distortion source and a reflection …

Otoacoustic emission (OAE)-based measurement of the functioning of the human cochlea and the efferent auditory system
… that distortion product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAE) are<br/>composed of two separate components, named wave- and place-fixed emissions. They not only arise from two different cochlear locations but also from two fundamentally different processes. Wave-fixed components arise from distortion …

Using otoacoustic emissions to evaluate efferent auditory function in humans
… of distortion product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAEs) when evaluating efferent function using contralateral acoustic stimulation (CAS). CAS-induced activation of the medial olivocochlear reflex (MOCR) was found to produce both reductions and enhancements of total DPOAE level. Analysis of the …

The Audiometric Profile of Young Adults Who Report Difficulty with Speech Perception in Noise
… distortion product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAEs), and auditory brainstem responses (ABR) in 13 participants (5 with reported difficulty in noise & 8 controls). Participants who reported difficulty in noise rated their speech perception in noise performance as poorer on the SSQ, performed …

The psychophysical and physiological assessment of cochlear-origin tinnitus
… of the Distortion Product Otoacoustic Emission(DPOAE) level, Input/Output slope, and tinnitus handicap questionnaire scores indicated a possible measure of tinnitus severity, and the further statistical data analysis is required to confirm its effectiveness based on more rigorous subject …

Mutation of SLC7A14 Causes Syndromic Hearing Loss
… distortion product otoacoustic emission (DPOAE) measurements showed normal OHC function in wildtype and knockout mice. To confirm syndromic disease, alteration in auditory functions were examined in knockin mice with the missense mutation SLC7A14-p.(Gly330Arg). ABR thresholds, but not …

Hear Today, Gone Tomorrow: Exploring Quinoxaline Derivatives as a Treatment for Noise-Induced Hearing Loss
… (ABR), distortion product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAE), and morphological analysis. The derivatives’ bioavailability was assessed using an in silico ADME assay from SwissADME. A kinome activity assay was performed on organs of Corti to assess changes in kinase activity following noise exposure. …

Slow modulation of cochlear response by the olivocochlear efferent system elicited by sustained noise or threshold elevation in the contralateral ear
… distortion product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAEs), compound action potentials (CAPs), and round window noise. In contrast to the MOC slow effect, which has been reported for sustained shockevoked MOC activity, MOC delayed suppression does not build up in the outer hair cells but is due to a …

Interactive effects of developmental PCB exposure and relevant environmental risks on the auditory system
… distortion product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAEs). DPOAE amplitudes were decreased and thresholds were elevated in the 6 mg/kg PCB group. Exposure to PBDEs alone did not cause DPOAE deficits. Importantly, there was an interactive effect from combined exposure such that the individual low …

Distortion product otoacoustic emissions: towards reliable and valid early identification and monitoring of hearing in adults receiving ototoxic medication
… state. Distortion product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAEs) at 2f1-f2 are a viable option, as it evaluates cochlear function, specifically the outer hair cells, which are affected first by ototoxic medication. Method: This thesis used a sequential study design aimed to determine the DPOAE stimulus …

Auditory characteristics and balance function of diabetic patients
… distortion product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAE), vision screening, peripheral neuropathy screening, Dynamic Gait Index test (DGI) and the Modified Clinical Test of Sensory Integration (MCTSIB). Data were analyzed using both descriptive and inferential statistical tests. Results. A total of …

A Comparison of Commercially Available Otoacoustic Emission Newborn Hearing Screening Devices
… were distortion product otoacoustic emission (DPOAE) devices and two were transient evoked otoacoustic emission (TEOAE) devices. The AuDX, the GSI 70, and the EchoScreen are all automated pass/fail hearing screeners and were compared to the ILO 88, which is non-automated. The devices chosen are …

Objective Measures of Tinnitus in Humans
… used. Distortion product otoacoustic emission (DPOAE) input/output functions were calculated to assess cochlear function, contralateral suppression of reflectance-based stimulus frequency otoacoustic emissions was calculated to assess central auditory efferent function, and the auditory middle …

Responses from electric stimulation of cochlear nucleus
… on distortion product otoacoustic emission (DPOAE). The MOC reflex was activated bilaterally by stimulating PVCN or AVCN shell, but not AVCN core. These results suggest that there are two groups of MOC interneurons in specific parts of CN.
