Noise-Induced Hearing Loss in Gerbil: Round Window Assays of Synapse Loss

Previous work in animals with recovered hearing thresholds but permanent inner hair cell synapse loss after noise have suggested initial vulnerability of low spontaneous rate (SR) auditory nerve fibers (ANF). As these fibers have properties of response that facilitate robust sound coding in continuo...
