yes no The human ear is a very sophisticated sensory organ that performs two functions: hearing and balance. It is probably the most developed sensory system in the human apart from vision. The outer, middle and inner ear, hearing nerve and it's central connections allow us to hear what we want to hear while suppressing what we don't want to and attach meanings so that an appropriate response can be made. Hearing is extremely important for the development of spoken language. Those with a pre-lingual profound hearing loss will not have access to speech sounds and hence will not develop oral language, while those with a severe pre-lingual hearing loss will not develop normal speech. Moderate hearing loss may affect speech and (oral) language development and will have a considerable effect on the mainstream education of children. Mild hearing losses also may affect the ability to learn depending on a number of other factors. The incidence of significant permanent congenital hearing loss is about 1 in 1,000 live births. This almost doubles by the age 10 years because of acquired hearing loss from meningitis, mumps, measles, trauma and other causes. Most congenital hearing losses are due to the malfunction of the inner ear but a few are due to malformation of the middle ear ossicles or the ear canal. If the hearing loss is due to a problem within the inner ear, or occasionally due to abnormalities in the hearing nerve, the term sensorineural hearing loss is used. Hearing loss due to a problem within the middle ear or the outer ear is called a conductive hearing loss while a combination is called a mixed loss.

PRELIMINARY REPORT
and
DISCUSSION PAPER
by
David Brinicombe
Not all white cats are deaf and it has been reported that there are some populations of Whites which are less prone to deafness that others. If this is so and a risk of white deafness is hereditary, then white deafness is most likely to be influenced by polygenes. Past research has reported a high statistical correlation between blue eyes and deafness in Whites. Not all white cats have blue eyes nor are all white cats deaf, but an independant factor may give rise to both blue eyes and deafness in Whites. A common factor may mean that blue eyes could be a pointer to cats carrying a higher risk of deafness.

EENET is keen to promote discussion about the particular issues related to including deaf children in education in the South (developing countries). However, EENET is not a specialist agency in deaf issues. See Resource Organisations on Deaf Issues for details of organisations that will be able to help you with your particular need. For example, if you want information about:

Summary
Disease characteristics. Several hundred genes are known to cause hereditary hearing loss and deafness. The hearing loss may be conductive, sensorineural, or mixed; syndromic or nonsyndromic; and prelingual (before language develops) or postlingual (after language develops). Diagnosis/testing. Genetic forms of hearing loss must be carefully distinguished from acquired (non-genetic) causes of hearing loss. The genetic forms of hearing loss are diagnosed by otologic, audiologic, and physical examination, family history , ancillary testing (such as CT examination of the temporal bone), and DNA-based testing . DNA-based genetic tests are available for many types of syndromic and nonsyndromic deafness, although usually only on a research basis. On a clinical basis, DNA-based testing is available for the diagnosis of branchio-oto-renal (BOR) syndrome gene ), Mohr-Tranebjaerg syndrome (deafness-dystonia-optic atrophy syndrome;

Adult Aphasia: Recent Research
On this page:
What Is Aphasia?
Aphasia (uh-fay'-zhuh) is a communication disorder that can affect a person's ability to use and understand spoken or written words. It results from damage to the side of the brain dominant for language. For most people, this is the left side. Aphasia usually occurs suddenly and often results from a stroke or head injury, but it can also develop slowly because of a brain tumor, an infection, or dementia. Top
Types of Aphasia
There are many different classification systems for aphasia and many different types of aphasia within each system. Some systems are based primarily on the location of the lesion, while others are based solely on the person's behavior. One system adopted by the National Aphasia Association divides aphasia into two broad categories: fluent and non-fluent aphasia. People with fluent aphasia have problems understanding spoken and written language. This type is also known as sensory, posterior, or Wernicke's aphasia. People with non-fluent aphasia have difficulty communicating orally and in writing. This type of aphasia is also called motor, anterior, or Broca's aphasia. Within the non-fluent category is the most severe type, called global aphasia. People with this type have difficulty both expressing and understanding written and oral communication.

Sudden Deafness
Introduction
Sudden Deafness can be defined as a sensorineural hearing loss that develops over a period of hours or a few days. The severity of the hearing loss may vary from mild to total loss of perception of the most intense sound. The loss of hearing may be permanent, or the hearing may spontaneously return to normal or near normal. It is usually unilateral but it can be bilateral in about 4% of the cases. Although it has a small incidence, it is very important to know how to deal with this disease which is a medical emergency.
Etiology
Acoustic Neurinoma - About 15% of patients with this disease will present with sudden sensorineural hearing loss as their initial symptom. It is due to a compression of vestibulocochlear nerve in the inner.
Noise - The exposition to acute acoustic trauma (gunfire injures and explosion for instance ) can cause severe and sudden hearing loss. The cause is partly a direct and mechanical one, due to bleeding and partly an indirect metabolic effect on the microcirculation causing partially reversible damage to the sensory cells of the organ of corti.
Perilymph fistula - There is little doubt that perilymph fistula ( either spontaneous or following surgery, barotrauma or acoustic trauma ) can cause sudden deafness. Nevertheless, this is an area of significant controversy because of the lack of firm criteria for its diagnosis, including intraoperative observation.
