DOI: 10.1016/j.heares.2017.01.016
Abstract: Abstract In rodent models, acoustic exposure too modest to elevate hearing thresholds can nonetheless cause auditory nerve fiber deafferentation, interfering with the coding of supra‐threshold sound. Low‐spontaneous rate nerve fibers, important for encoding acoustic information… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.heares.2017.12.018
Abstract: &NA; Models of the human auditory periphery range from very basic functional descriptions of auditory filtering to detailed computational models of cochlear mechanics, inner‐hair cell (IHC), auditory‐nerve (AN) and brainstem signal processing. It is challenging… read more here.

Effects of selective auditory-nerve damage on the behavioral audiogram and temporal integration in the budgerigar

DOI: 10.1016/j.heares.2019.01.019
Abstract: &NA; Auditory‐nerve fibers are lost steadily with age and as a possible consequence of noise‐induced glutamate excitotoxicity. Auditory‐nerve loss in the absence of other cochlear pathologies is thought to be undetectable with a pure‐tone audiogram… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.heares.2020.108037
Abstract: OBJECTIVE The electrically evoked compound action potential (eCAP) has been widely studied for its clinical value in evaluating cochlear implants (CIs). However, to date, single-fiber recordings have not been recorded from the human auditory nerve,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.neuroscience.2018.10.010
Abstract: Auditory nerve fibers (ANFs) convey acoustic information from the sensory cells to the brainstem using an elaborated neural code based on both spike timing and rate. As the stimulus tone frequency increases, time coding fades… read more here.

Transient auditory nerve demyelination as a new mechanism for hidden hearing loss
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Nature Communications"
DOI: 10.1038/ncomms14487
Abstract: Hidden hearing loss (HHL) is a recently described auditory neuropathy believed to contribute to speech discrimination and intelligibility deficits in people with normal audiological tests. Animals and humans with HHL have normal auditory thresholds but… read more here.

Effects of cochlear-synaptopathy inducing moderate noise exposure on auditory-nerve-fiber responses in chinchillas

DOI: 10.1121/1.4988436
Abstract: It has been hypothesized that selective loss of low-spontaneous-rate (low-SR) auditory-nerve (AN) fibers following moderate noise exposure may underlie perceptual difficulties some people experience in noisy situations, despite normal audiograms. However, the finding of selective… read more here.

DOI: 10.1152/jn.00402.2021
Abstract: After acoustic overexposure, many auditory-nerve fiber (ANF) synapses permanently retract from surviving cochlear hair cells. This synaptopathy is hard to diagnose, since it does not elevate audiometric thresholds until almost no synapses remain, nevertheless it… read more here.
