Objective: To study the differences of regulation of sodium salicylate on the auditory brain stem response (ABR) threshold and expression of glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD) protein in spiral ganglion of juvenile and adult guinea pigs.
Methods: Fourty juvenile guinea pigs which were born just four days and fourty adult guinea pigs which were born thirty days were selected. They were divided four groups (group A; group B; group C; group D). ABR threshold was detected before administration, after administration for 15 days and after administration stopped for 30 days. The protein expression of GAD were measured after administration for 15 days and after administration stopped for 30 days by the method of immunohistochemistry.
Results: ABR threshold of juvenile sodium salicylate groups (group C) was increased remarkably than that of before administration and the control after administration for 15 days (P < 0.001). ABR threshold of group C was returned to the level of that of before administration and after administration stopped for 30 days. ABR threshold of adult sodium salicylate groups (group D) was increased remarkably than that of before administration and the control after administration for 15 days (P < 0.001). ABR threshold of group D was kept the high level after administration stopped for 30 days. The protein expression of GAD of sodium salicylate groups (group C and D) was decreased than that of the control after administration for 15 days. The protein expression of group C was more visible regression than that of group D (t = 4.7, P < 0.001). The protein expression of group C was returned the level of before administration after administration stopped for 30 days, but the protein expression of group D was kept the high level.
Conclusions: The results suggest that sodium salicylate can regulate differently ABR threshold and expression of GAD protein in spiral ganglion of juvenile and adult guinea pigs. The effects of sodium salicylate on ABR threshold and expression of GAD protein in spiral ganglion of juvenile pigs are more noticeable than that of adult guinea pigs, but these changes are easier to return the normal than that of adult guinea pigs.

Functional and Structural Changes in the Inner Ear and Cochlear Hair Cell Loss Induced by Hypergravity.

Gravitational changes have been shown to cause significant abnormalities in various body systems, including the cardiovascular, immune, vestibular, and musculoskeletal systems. While numerous studies have examined the response of the vestibular system to gravitational stimulation, research on functional changes in the peripheral inner ear remains limited. The inner ear comprises two closely related structures: the vestibule and cochlea.

Background: Previous studies have shown that multiple post-traumatic irradiations of the cochlea with near-infrared light (NIR) can significantly reduce noise-induced hearing loss. However, a single NIR pre-treatment was shown to have the same effect. Extending the pre-treatment time did not result in any further reduction in hearing loss.

Hypothesis: Extracochlear electric-acoustic stimulation (EAS) between the round window membrane and the basal part of the cochlear bone exhibits distinct auditory brainstem response (ABR) characteristics.
Background: The use of EAS in individuals with residual hearing is becoming increasingly common in clinical settings. Ongoing research has explored the characteristics of EAS-induced responses in hearing cochleae.

Objective: The interpretation of ABR results in patients with vestibular schwannoma is often unclear. We investigated the correlation between serviceable hearing in patients with vestibular schwannoma (VS) and factors including auditory brainstem response (ABR) at their initial presentation.
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed initial magnetic resonance imaging findings, Gardner-Robertson (G&R) classification, ABR, and related data from 72 patients with VS who visited our institution between February 2017 and January 2023.

Objectives: Deletion of gene in mice has been linked to progressive hearing loss and degeneration of cochlear cells. Cisplatin, an antitumor drug, can cause various side effects, including ototoxicity. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of on cisplatin-induced hearing impairment in mice and to explore the possible mechanism.
