Introduction Calyx bearing vestibular afferent neurons innervating type I hair cells in the
striolar region of the utricle are exquisitely sensitive to auditory-frequency air conducted …

Blast-induced auditory trauma is a common injury in military service members and veterans
that leads to hearing loss. While the inner ear response to blast exposure is difficult to …

Blast-induced injuries affect the health of veterans, in which the auditory system is often
damaged, and blast-induced auditory damage to the cochlea is difficult to quantify. A recent …

Blast-induced auditory injury is primarily caused by exposure to an overwhelming amount of
energy transmitted into the external auditory canal, the middle ear, and then the cochlea …

Introduction Injuries to the peripheral auditory system are among the most common results of
high intensity impulsive noise exposure. Hearing protection can mitigate this injury, but …

听觉系统各组成部分的机械损伤是爆炸后造成听力损失的主要原因. 强脉冲声致听觉损害风险
准则仍然存在许多争议, 例如: 指标选择冲量还是超压峰值, 正压持续时间是否重要等 …

Purpose Veterans commonly suffer from blast-induced hearing disabilities. Injury to the
sensitive organ of Corti (OC) or hair cells within the cochlea can directly lead to hearing loss …

Introduction Auditory disabilities like tinnitus and hearing loss caused by exposure to blast
overpressures are prevalent among military service members and veterans. The high …

Mechanical damage to components of the auditory system is the main cause of hearing loss
after exposure to blast overpressure waves. There still exist some controversies in high level …

The ear is highly sensitive to blast-induced damage. Blast overpressure may lead to rupture
of the tympanic membrane, ossicular injury, and/or damage to inner ear structures. Injuries …
