  1. Predicting emotion perception abilities for cochlear implant users

    INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF AUDIOLOGY, v.62, n.10, p.946-954, 2023

    Objective In daily life, failure to perceive emotional expressions can result in maladjusted behaviour. For cochlear implant users, perceiving emotional cues in sounds remains challenging, and the factors explaining the variability in patients' sensitivity to emotions are currently poorly underst...

  2. White noise effect on listening effort among patients with chronic tinnitus and normal hearing thresholds

    BRAZILIAN JOURNAL OF OTORHINOLARYNGOLOGY, v.90, n.1, article ID 101340, 7p, 2024

    Objective: This study investigated the effects of WN on LE in subjects with chronic tinnitus and normal hearing thresholds. The study was a prospective, non-randomized, before-and-after, intra-participant intervention. Methods: Twenty-five subjects performed the following tests: conventional and ...

  3. Perivascular Innervation in the Nasal Mucosa and Clinical Findings in Patients with Allergic Rhinitis and Idiopathic Rhinitis

    INTERNATIONAL ARCHIVES OF OTORHINOLARYNGOLOGY, v.27, n.4, p.723-732, 2023

    Introduction The nonspecific hyperreactivity of rhinitis has been attributed to neurotrophins activating sensory nerves and inflammatory cells. The relationship between these markers and the intensity of the symptoms is not well established and few studies have evaluated individuals with idiopath...

  4. Communicative and Hearing Performance in Individuals with Cochlear Implants and Delayed Neuropsychomotor Development: A Longitudinal Analysis

    INTERNATIONAL ARCHIVES OF OTORHINOLARYNGOLOGY, v.27, n.3, p.487-498, 2023

    Introduction Between 15% to 30% of individuals with bilateral prelingual sensorineural hearing loss present with associated disabilities. Cochlear implant (CI) is an alternative treatment that provides consistent access to environmental and speech sounds, which results in significant benefits reg...

Algorithm for the diagnostic and therapeutic management of tinnitus. In: . Textbook of Tinnitus: SPRINGER NEW YORK, 2011.

    Keypoints: 1. Tinnitus can be a symptom of a wide range of different underlying pathologies and accompanied by many different comorbidities, indicating the need for comprehensive multidisciplinary diagnostic assessment. 2. Basic diagnostics should include a detailed case history, assessment of ti...

  7. Tinnitus caused and influenced by the somatosensory system

    Sanchez, T. G.; Rocha, C. B.. Tinnitus caused and influenced by the somatosensory system. In: . Textbook of Tinnitus: SPRINGER NEW YORK, 2011. p.363-368.

    Keypoints: 1. It is now recognized that many forms of tinnitus-related neural activity are much more complex and multimodal than ever thought. 2. It has become evident that contribution of non-auditory pathways is involved in eliciting or modulating many forms of tinnitus. 3. Many forms of tinnit...

  8. Diagnosis of somatosensory tinnitus

    Sanchez, T. G.; Rocha, C. B.. Diagnosis of somatosensory tinnitus. In: . Textbook of Tinnitus: SPRINGER NEW YORK, 2011. p.429-433.

    Keypoints: 1. The contribution of non-auditory pathways to the pathology of tinnitus has become more and more evident. 2. Because many different stimuli can modulate tinnitus (forceful muscle contractions of the head and neck, eye movements, pressure of myofascial trigger points, cutaneous stimul...
