Hearing

57.3K
When we hear a sound, our nervous system is detecting sound waves—pressure waves of mechanical energy traveling through a medium. The frequency of the wave is perceived as pitch, while the amplitude is perceived as loudness.

Formulation and Manufacturing Process: Physical Attributes of Generic Tablets and Capsules

335
Bioequivalence in generic drugs, such as tablets and capsules, refers to their pharmaceutical equivalence to the brand-name counterparts. However, for therapeutic equivalence, manufacturers must also consider physical attributes like size, shape, and weight (FDA Guidance for Industry, December 2003). Discrepancies in these aspects could impact patient compliance and cause medication errors. For instance, swallowing difficulties, often experienced with larger tablets or capsules, can lead to...

Genetic Screens02:46

Genetic Screens

5.7K
Genetic screens are tools used to identify genes and mutations responsible for phenotypes of interest. Genetic screens help identify individuals or a group of people at risk of developing  genetic diseases and help them with early intervention, targeted therapy, and reproductive options.
Forward genetic screens
Forward or “classical” genetic screens involve creating random mutations in an organism’s DNA using radiation, mutagens, or insertion of additional bases, which...

Distribution Reliability and Automation

518
Distribution reliability in electrical power systems is critical for ensuring an uninterrupted power supply to consumers at minimal cost. According to IEEE Standard Terms, reliability is the probability that a device will function without failure over a specified time period or amount of usage. For electric power distribution, this translates to maintaining continuous power supply and addressing customer concerns over power outages. Several indices, as defined by IEEE Standard 1366-2012, are...

Lewis Acids and Bases02:33

Lewis Acids and Bases

48.4K
In 1923, G. N. Lewis proposed a generalized definition of acid-base behavior in which acids and bases are identified by their ability to accept or to donate a pair of electrons and form a coordinate covalent bond.
A coordinate covalent bond (or dative bond) occurs when one of the atoms in the bond provides both bonding electrons. For example, a coordinate covalent bond occurs when a water molecule combines with a hydrogen ion to form a hydronium ion. A coordinate covalent bond also results when...

Weak Base Solutions03:21

Weak Base Solutions

25.3K
Some compounds produce hydroxide ions when dissolved by chemically reacting with water molecules. In all cases, these compounds react only partially and so are classified as weak bases. These types of compounds are also abundant in nature and important commodities in various technologies. For example, global production of the weak base ammonia is typically well over 100 metric tons annually, being widely used as an agricultural fertilizer, a raw material for chemical synthesis of other...

Area of Science:

  • Audiology
  • Public Health
  • Digital Health

Background:

  • Hearing loss affects a significant portion of schoolchildren.
  • Traditional hearing screening methods can be resource-intensive and less accessible.
  • Tele-audiometry presents a potential solution for remote and efficient hearing assessments.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the performance of a tablet-based tele-audiometry system for automated hearing screening in children.
  • To compare the diagnostic accuracy of this tablet-based method against conventional audiometry and other screening approaches.

Main Methods:

  • 244 schoolchildren underwent tablet-based screening and gold-standard pure-tone audiometry.
  • Acoustic immittance measurements were also performed.
  • Sensitivity, specificity, predictive values, and accuracy were calculated for various screening configurations.

Main Results:

  • Mild to moderate conductive hearing loss was identified in 9.43% of children.
  • The tablet-based screening method, particularly when including 500 Hz, showed the highest diagnostic values.
  • Performance metrics varied across different screening approaches, with the series approach also showing promise.

Conclusions:

  • The tablet-based automated hearing screening application is a valuable tool for schoolchildren.
  • This technology has the potential to enhance asynchronous tele-audiology service delivery.
  • The proposed screening protocol can improve early detection and management of hearing impairments in pediatric populations.
