Title
Noise in acute patient care areas
Description
This study was designed to describe the level of sound in acute patient care areas. A convenience sample of 25 subjects from four intensive care and two general care units within three hospitals in a large metropolitan area was studied. Continuous decibel levels [dB(A)] and equivalent continuous ...

Title
Performance on auditory, vestibular, and visual tests is stable across two seasons of youth tackle football
Description
Objective: Few studies have tracked neurologic function in youth football players longitudinally. This study aimed to determine whether changes in tests of auditory, vestibular, and/or visual functions are evident after participation in one or two seasons of youth tackle football. Study Design...

Title
Difficulty hearing in noise: A sequela of concussion in children
Description
Objective: Concussions can result in auditory processing deficits even in the absence of hearing loss. In children and adolescents, the extent to which these impairments have functional consequences for everyday listening, such as the ability to understand speech in noisy environments, is unknown...

Title
Auditory biological marker of concussion in children
Description
Concussions carry devastating potential for cognitive, neurologic, and socio-emotional disease, but no objective test reliably identifies a concussion and its severity. A variety of neurological insults compromise sound processing, particularly in complex listening environments that place high de...

Title
The neural legacy of a single concussion
Description
It has been hypothesized that concussions impart lasting brain damage, even after a patient has ostensibly recovered. This hypothesis is based largely upon neuropathological studies in deceased athletes, however, leaving open the question of whether it can be detected in vivo. We measured neural ...

Baseline profiles of auditory, vestibular, and visual functions in youth tackle football players
Description
Abstract Aim: Neurosensory tests have emerged as components of sport-related concussion management. Limited normative data are available in healthy, nonconcussed youth athletes. Patients & methods/results: In 2017 and 2018, we tested 108 youth tackle football players immediately before ...

Title
Play sports for a quieter brain: Evidence from Division I collegiate athletes
Description
Background: Playing sports has many benefits, including boosting physical, cardiovascular, and mental fitness. We tested whether athletic benefits extend to sensory processing-specifically auditory processing-as measured by the frequency-following response (FFR), a scalp-recorded electrophysiolog...

Title
Meaningful engagement with sound for strengthening communication skills
Description
In this chapter we review the evidence that meaningful experience with sound can alter behavioral and neural auditory function, discuss different forms of auditory training and their documented impact on auditory system physiology, and highlight their application as remediation strategies for aud...

Title
Thinking outside the sound booth: Assessing and managing auditory processing disorder in an auditory-cognitive neuroscience framework
Description
Book chapter evaluating auditory processing disorder (APD) using an auditory-cognitive neuroscience framework. Reviews the impact of various factors on auditory-based learning, including musical training, bilingualism, poverty, and head injury. Also considers the positive effects of auditory trai...

Title
Neurobiologic responses to speech in noise in children with learning problems: Deficits and strategies for improvement
Description
Abstract Objectives: Some children with learning problems (LP) experience speech-sound perception deficits that worsen in background noise. The first goal was to determine whether these impairments are associated with abnormal neurophysiologic representation of speech features in noise refle...

Title
The impoverished brain: Disparities in maternal education affect the neural response to sound
Description
Despite the prevalence of poverty worldwide, little is known about how early socioeconomic adversity affects auditory brain function. Socioeconomically disadvantaged children are underexposed to linguistically and cognitively stimulating environments and overexposed to environmental toxins, inclu...

Title
Dyslexia risk gene relates to representation of sound in the auditory brainstem
Description
Dyslexia is a reading disorder with strong associations with KIAA0319 and DCDC2. Both genes play a functional role in spike time precision of neurons. Strikingly, poor readers show an imprecise encoding of fast transients of speech in the auditory brainstem. Whether dyslexia risk genes are relate...
