1. Results of the implantation of bone-anchored hearing aids in patients with treacher-collins syndrome
INTRODUCTION: Treacher-Collins syndrome is characterized by craniofacial malformations, narrowing of the external auditory canal (EAC), and, in 30% of cases, agenesis of the canal and ossicular chain defects. The use of hearing aids (HA) is not possible in cases in which agenesis or stenosis of the EAC accompanies conductive deafness. In contrast, bone condu

2. Limiares eletrofisiológico e psicoacústicos por via óssea em indivíduos normais e com perda auditiva. / Electrophysiological and psychoacoustic thresholds bone in normal hearing impaired
To investigate the electrophysiological thresholds obtained by bone and compared them with the psychoacoustic thresholds obtained in pure tone audiometry in adults with normal hearing and with different types and degrees of hearing loss. Methods: The sample consisted of 70 subjects, 35 men and 35 women (30 normal, 10 with conductive hearing loss, 10 with mil

3. Bone conduction measurements in normal hearing subjects: acoustic radiation and bone vibrator positioning / Medida da condução óssea em sujeitos ouvintes normais: radiação acústica e posicionamento do vibrador ósseo
Clinical audiology literature and practice raise questions about bone conduction assessment results. The most common questions are related to the reliability of bone conduction thresholds as they suffer a lot of artifacts that may mislead the results obtained. Silman &Silverman (1997) describe two important factors that could interfere in such measurement: a

4. Body sway and vibration perception thresholds in normal aging and in patients with polyneuropathy.
Body sway and vibration perception in the lower limbs were measured in 32 normal subjects and 25 patients with peripheral neuropathies; nerve conduction studies were also performed in the patients with neuropathies. Body sway was measured by means of force-plate posturography, and three methods were used to assess vibration perception: a neurothesiometer, a
