The hair cell death occurs by over-production of reactive oxygen species, reactive nitrogen species, and other free radicals, which result from oxidative stress destroying the antioxidant defense mechanisms in the cochlea. Pharmacological approaches have been developed to prevent or treat cochlear damage induced by AAT. The objective of this study is to investigate the therapeutic effect of the combined antioxidant drugs (4-OHPBN plus NAC) in treating hearing loss induced by AAT when these drugs are orally administered. Thirty female chinchillas (six for each group) were exposed to a 105 dB SPL octave-band noise centered at 4 kHz for 6 hours. A combination of 4-hydroxy phenyl-N-tert-butylnitrone (4-OHPBN) plus N-acetyl-L-cystein (NAC) were orally administered to all experimental groups giving a first injection 4 hour after noise exposure and continually injecting twice daily for the next two days. Cubic distortion product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAE) before noise exposure and 21 days after noise exposure were obtained and statistically analyzed. The cubic DPOAE amplitudes were significantly different among different groups at different frequencies. The oral administration of 4-OHPBN plus NAC significantly increased permanent DPOAE amplitude. The increase was partially correlated with the dose of 4-OHPBN plus NAC. These results demonstrate that the combination of 4-OHPBN plus NAC can treat acute acoustic trauma although these drugs are orally administered. At the high dose of 4-OHPBN (75 mg/kg) plus NAC (200 mg/kg), the cubic DPOAE amplitude was reduced compared to those of 4-OHPBN (50 mg/kg) plus NAC (100 mg/kg). This reduction indicates that the only highest dose of 4-OHPBN may be ototoxic.","PeriodicalId":30299,"journal":{"name":"Audiology","volume":"7 1","pages":"51-59"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68458779","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The auditory behavior checklist developed for this study \u0000was a parent questionnaire which included a total of 80 questions consisting of 5 questions for each 3-month developmental stages \u0000between the chronological age of 0-48 months. The items of the auditory behavior checklist were selected from the literature related \u0000to children’s auditory behavior development of early childhood education, special education, and language development. The validity \u0000and reliability for items were conducted by attempting a content validity analysis, a factor analysis, and an internal consistency reliability \u0000analysis. Receptive-listening scores were obtained from 350 normal hearing infants and toddlers in ages 0 to 48 months. The \u0000results of this study were summarized as follows; First, reliabilities of the items of auditory behavior checklist showed 0.821 in receptive \u0000listening and 0.834 in expressive listening significantly. Also, the correlation coefficient about receptive-listening was significantly \u0000high ranging from 0.805 to 0.940. Second, the means and standard deviations for receptive-listening scores obtained from 350 \u0000normal hearing infants and toddlers revealed 17.43±1.91 (16.72-18.06) respectively. The difference in scores was less than 1, indicating \u0000a negligible difference. Significant gender differences were not found among normal hearing groups. In conclusion, cochlear \u0000implantation in children at the youngest age possible allows the best opportunity for them to develop listening behaviors that approximate \u0000those of their peers with normal hearing. \u0000KEY WORDS：Auditory behavior checklist·Auditory development·Reliability·Validity.","PeriodicalId":30299,"journal":{"name":"Audiology","volume":"6 1","pages":"60-75"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68458511","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study included 10 normal-hearing and 90 impaired-hearing elderly subjects. The 90 hearing-impaired subjects were divided into 9 groups according to the combination of three frequency ranges of hearing loss (1,000-6,000 Hz, 2,000-6,000 Hz, & 3,000-6,000 Hz) and three degrees of hearing loss (26-35 dB, 36-45 dB, & 46-55 dB). At the most comfortable level, recognition scores revealed a range of 86-96% for all elderly groups. There was no significant recognition difference among three frequency ranges of hearing loss. Recognition performance decreased as degree of hearing loss increased. At a conversational level, recognition scores revealed a range of 68-96% for all elderly groups. Recognition performance was significantly deteriorated with increasing degree of hearing loss and increasing frequency ranges of hearing loss. When frequency range of hearing loss was wider than 2,000-6,000 Hz and when degree of hearing loss became greater than 36 dB, recognition performance was significantly poorer at a conversational level than at the most comfortable level. The results of this study show that frequency range and degree of hearing loss effects on word recognition in the elderly are significant if word is presented at a conversational level. These findings suggest that word recognition measured at a conversational level provides better prediction for communication difficulties in elderly listeners with impaired hearing. Moreover, it can be usefully applied for counseling and rehabilitation for the elderly with impaired hearing.","PeriodicalId":30299,"journal":{"name":"Audiology","volume":"5 1","pages":"36-41"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68458939","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The principles on which the test was prepared are discussed in general and can therefore be applied to other languages. 25 normally-hearing individuals were examined, together with 198 patients with all kinds of hearing disorders; a rather high correlation (90%) was found between the social hearing handicap index (SHI), and the degree of hearing handicap (SRT). It has, however, been proved that other factor, such as lip-reading capacity, influence the social handicap. The SHI, before and after audiological treatment at the hearing centre, serves as a useful standard to control the effectiveness of our measures, since they are experienced by the patient himself.","PeriodicalId":30299,"journal":{"name":"Audiology","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-07-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70625644","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
