Auditory evoked bursts in mouse visual cortex during isoflurane anesthesiaRüdiger Land
Department of Neurophysiology and Pathophysiology, University Medical Center Hamburg Eppendorf, Hamburg, Germany
PLoS ONE 7:e49855. 2012..2 Hz) in the subiculum. The effect disappeared during return to light anesthesia. The results show that pseudo-heteromodal sensory burst responses can appear in brain structures as an effect of an anesthesia induced state change...- The influence of a sensitive period on central auditory development in children with unilateral and bilateral cochlear implantsAnu Sharma
Behavioral and Brain Sciences, University of Texas at Dallas, Dallas, TX, USA
Hear Res 203:134-43. 2005..Our results are consistent with animal models of central auditory development after implantation and confirm the presence of a relatively brief sensitive period for central auditory development in young children...
