Rats in groups 2, 3, and 4 were exposed to 120 dB noise in the 4 kHz octave band for 4 hours. The auditory brainstem response (ABR) test was performed in all groups on day 1 after noise exposure and was repeated in groups 1, 2, and 3 on day 5. Auditory brainstem response thresholds were recorded at 8, 12, 16, 20, and 32 kHz frequencies. Groups 1, 2, and 3 rats were sacrificed on day 5, and group 4 rats were sacrificed by exsanguination on day 1 after noise exposure. Venous blood samples collected from the caudal vena cava were centrifuged and sent to the corresponding laboratory for thiol-disulfide homeostasis studies.

Improvements were observed with dexamethasone administered for therapeutic purposes, particularly if the hearing loss was induced by low-frequency noise.

Children were selected using snowball sampling for the CI group and purposive sampling for the NH group. Vocal emotion perception was assessed for semantically neutral sentences in \"happy,\" \"sad,\" and \"angry\" emotions using a 3 alternate forced choice test.

The unbiased hit (Hu) value provided more substantial insight than the hit score. Bimodal hearing devices enhance the perception of \"sad\" and \"angry\" vocal emotions compared to using a CI alone, likely due to the HA providing the temporal fine structure cues, thereby better representing fundamental frequency variations.
