Injection of adult mouse mesenchymal stem cells into the developing chick inner ear

This series of experiments attempted to characterize the abilities of stem cells derived from bone marrow and adipose tissue to integrate into the sensory epithelium of the inner ear and to differentiate into hair cells or neural cell types.

Re-education of the aphasic with the emphasis on the young adult

This paper discusses aphasia and the young adult.

The role of glutamate receptors in cholesteatoma induced bone resorption

This paper discusses a study examining a new model of cholesteatoma induced bone resorption in mice using autologous implantation of pinna dermis to the surface of the skull and the role of glutamate receptors in reducing the number of osteoclasts.

Bone-conducted tones masked by air-conducted noise

This paper presents a study designed to develop and evaluate a method for obtaining monaural thresholds for bone-conducted signals masked by air-conducted noises.

A critical analysis of scores, accumulated from the presentation of the Wechsler-Bellevue Intelligence Scale to adolescent and adult deafened individuals

This paper discusses the validity of the Wechsler-Bellevue Intelligence test for hearing impaired adolescents and adults.

A suggested speechreading program for the elderly adult

This paper includes an outline for a speechreading program for elderly adults.

The role of integrin avB3 in bone remodeling

This paper examines the role of the avB3 integrin in osteoclastic resorption using a model of a localized inflammatory bone loss.

Subjective and objective measures of adult bimodal users' listening

Inconsistencies exist between traditional objective measures such as speech recognition and localization, and subjective reports of bimodal benefit. The purpose of this study was to expand the set of objective measures of bimodal benefit to include non-traditional listening tests, and to examine possible correlations between objective measures of auditory perception and subjective satisfaction reports.
