Test–Retest Reliability and Agreement of Ear-Canal and Mastoid Wave I Auditory Brainstem Responses in Healthy Young Adults

Test–retest reliability of Wave I amplitude and latency was assessed in 30 healthy adults (18–25 years, 19 women) with normal hearing and speech-in-noise performance, along with potential sources of variability (head size, cardiorespiratory parameters, tester effects)

Age-Related Alteration of Neural Correlates of Tone-in-Noise Detection in the Auditory Midbrain 

In the same animals, single-unit recordings from IC neurons revealed that old mice show degraded tone detection in noise, with fewer units responding selectively to the embedded tone, a shift toward more sustained response types, and heterogeneous spiking responses to tone-in-noise stimuli compared to young animals.

Thalamocortical Auditory Processing In Misophonia: Evidence From Middle Latency Auditory Evoked Potentials

Individuals with misophonia show significantly shorter MLR latencies but no amplitude differences compared to controls, pointing to enhanced thalamocortical neural transmission as a neurophysiological correlate of misophonia.

Multi-Response Deconvolution preserves pABR Estimation Quality Despite Increasing Response Overlap 

Multi-response deconvolution preserves pABR estimation quality under increasing response overlap, whereas conventional averaging reduces SNR but has minimal practical impact on ABR morphology.

Exploring Auditory Encoding In Misophonia Using Frequency Following Response

Individuals with misophonia demonstrated a significantly delayed FFR offset peak, suggesting abnormal subcortical auditory encoding that may underlie their heightened sensitivity to trigger sounds.
