Cochlear implants (CIs) are the most successful treatment for severe-to-profound deafness in children. However, speech outcomes with a CI often lag behind those of normally-hearing children. Some authors have attributed these deficits to the takeover...

Seasonal weight changes in laboratory ferrets (2020)
Journal Article
Jones, E. J., Poole, K. C., Sollini, J., Town, S. M., & Bizley, J. K. (2020). Seasonal weight changes in laboratory ferrets. PLoS ONE, 15(8), Article e0232733. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0232733

Ferrets (Mustela putorius furo) are a valuable animal model used in biomedical research. Like many animals, ferrets undergo significant variation in body weight seasonally, affected by photoperiod, and these variations complicate the use weight as an...

Nitric oxide increases gain in the ventral cochlear nucleus of guinea pigs with tinnitus (2020)
Journal Article
Hockley, A., Berger, J. I., Palmer, A. R., & Wallace, M. N. (2020). Nitric oxide increases gain in the ventral cochlear nucleus of guinea pigs with tinnitus. European Journal of Neuroscience, 52(9), 4057-4080. https://doi.org/10.1111/ejn.14913

Previous work has led to the hypothesis that, during the production of noise‐induced tinnitus, higher levels of nitric oxide (NO), in the ventral cochlear nucleus (VCN), increase the gain applied to a reduced input from the cochlea. To test this hypo... Read More about Nitric oxide increases gain in the ventral cochlear nucleus of guinea pigs with tinnitus.

Association between Hyperacusis and Tinnitus (2020)
Journal Article
Cederroth, C. R., Lugo, A., Edvall, N. K., Lazar, A., Lopez-Escamez, J.-A., Bulla, J., …Gallus, S. (2020). Association between Hyperacusis and Tinnitus. Journal of Clinical Medicine, 9(8), Article 2412. https://doi.org/10.3390/jcm9082412

Many individuals with tinnitus report experiencing hyperacusis (enhanced sensitivity to sounds). However, estimates of the association between hyperacusis and tinnitus is lacking. Here, we investigate this relationship in a Swedish study. A total of... Read More about Association between Hyperacusis and Tinnitus.
