Genetic influences on early cochlear vulnerability to noise and protection from noise by low-dose kanamycin in hybrid mice

Experiments evaluated both noise vulnerability and the extent of protection from noise by sub-chronic low-dose kanamycin in young F1 hybrids resulting from a cross between C57BL/6J and CBA/J inbred mice.

Evaluating the directional effects of acoustic horn style hearing aids using the QuickSIN procedure

This paper evaluates the directional effects of two hearing devices – an antique London Dome horn style device and a constructed Cupped Hand. The comparisons were made using the Quick SIN (Speech in Noise) adaptive test which measures signal-to-noise ratio loss.
