Hearing

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.

Intrinsically Disordered Proteins02:18

Intrinsically Disordered Proteins

19.3K
Intrinsically disordered proteins are a group of proteins that do not fold into specific three-dimensional structures. Their structural flexibility allows them to complement ordered proteins to perform functions that are inaccessible to rigid structures. They are more common in eukaryotes than prokaryotes and may either be exclusively intrinsically disordered or hybrid proteins, consisting of a mix of ordered and disordered regions. The absence of a rigid structure in these proteins can be...

Other Disorders of Digestive System

The gastrointestinal tract is susceptible to various disorders. If the lower esophageal sphincter is damaged, stomach acid can flow back into the esophagus, causing irritation and inflammation of the lining. This condition is called gastroesophageal reflux disease (known as heartburn) and may cause chest pain and difficulty swallowing. In the stomach, prolonged use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs like aspirin, chronic alcohol consumption, bacterial infections such as Helicobacter...

Disorders of Erythrocytes

2.1K
Disorders of erythrocytes, or red blood cells (RBCs), include a range of conditions affecting their number, shape, or function.
Erythrocyte disorders can be broadly categorized into two main types: anemic and polycythemic conditions.
A low oxygen-carrying capacity of the blood due to the loss, lower production, or destruction of erythrocytes is termed anemia. Hemorrhagic anemia, for example, occurs when bleeding from an external wound or internal ulcer reduces erythrocyte counts.
On the other...

Disorders of Leukocytes

1.8K
Leukocyte disorders can lead to either leukopenia, characterized by an abnormally low leukocyte count, or leukocytosis, marked by a very high leukocyte number.
Leukopenia may result from bone marrow disorders, autoimmune diseases, and infectious diseases. For example, conditions such as multiple myeloma and aplastic anemia can impair the bone marrow's ability to produce adequate leukocytes. Similarly, autoimmune diseases like lupus and viral infections such as HIV can prompt the immune...

Bone Disorders01:29

Bone Disorders

Aging and its effect on bone remodeling is the most common cause of bone disorders. In young and healthy people, bone deposition and resorption happen at an equal rate to maintain optimal bone health.
Bone deposition is also affected by the levels of sex hormones like estrogen and testosterone that promote osteoblast activity and bone matrix synthesis. When the level of these hormones decreases due to aging, it causes a reduction in bone deposition. As a result, bone resorption by osteoclasts...

Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Audiology
  • Gerontology

Background:

  • Rising hearing deficits are projected due to demographic shifts and lifestyle changes.
  • These deficits may lead to speech discrimination loss, tinnitus, hyperacusis, and dementia.
  • Loss of auditory nerve fibers, through cochlear synaptopathy or deafferentation, is implicated in hearing disorders.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the link between auditory nerve fiber loss and hearing disorders.
  • To explore central compensatory mechanisms in response to reduced auditory nerve activity.
  • To evaluate the utility of auditory brainstem responses (ABR) and MRI in assessing these compensatory abilities.

Main Methods:

  • Analysis of suprathreshold amplitudes and latencies of auditory evoked brainstem potentials.
  • Utilizing non-invasive magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques.
  • Correlating electrophysiological findings with imaging data in animal models and potentially humans.

Main Results:

  • Reduced auditory nerve activity can be centrally compensated by altered auditory brainstem responses (ABR).
  • These central compensations do not always correlate with measurable hearing threshold changes.
  • Electrophysiological and imaging analyses show potential for identifying central compensatory capacity.

Conclusions:

  • Auditory nerve fiber integrity is crucial for preventing hearing disorders.
  • Central auditory system plasticity plays a significant role in compensating for hearing loss.
  • ABR and MRI offer promising tools for early identification and characterization of hearing deficits and their underlying mechanisms.
