Retro-labyrinthine Lesion Site Detected by Galvanic Vestibular Stimulation Elicited Vestibular-evoked Myogenic Potentials in Patients with Auditory Neuropathy

Objective Auditory neuropathy(AN)is a unique pattern of hearing loss with preservation of hair cell function.The condition is characterized by the presence of otoacoustic emissions(OAE)or cochlear microphonic(CM)responses with severe abnormalities of the auditory brainstem response(ABR).The vestibular branches of the VIII cranial nerve and the structures innervated by it can also be affected.However,the precise lesion sites in the vestibular system are not well characterized in patients with AN.Methods The air-conducted sound(ACS)vestibular-evoked myogenic potentials(VEMPs)and galvanic vestibular stimuli(GVS)-VEMPs were examined in 14 patients with AN.Results On examination of VEMPs(n=14,28 ears),the absent rates of ACS-cervical VEMP(cVEMP),ACS-ocular VEMP(oVEMP),GVS-cVEMP,GVS-oVEMP and caloric test were 92.9%(26/28),85.7%(24/28),67.9%(19/28),53.6%(15/28),and 61.5%(8/13),respectively.Impaired functions of the saccule,inferior vestibular nerve,utricle,superior vestibular nerve,and horizontal semicircular canal were found in 25.0%(7/28),67.9%(19/28),32.1%(9/28),53.6%(15/28)and 61.5%(8/13)patients,respectively.On comparing the elicited VEMPs parameters of AN patients with those of normal controls,both ACS-VEMPs and GVS-VEMPs showed abnormal results in AN patients(such as,lower presence rates,elevated thresholds,prolonged latencies,and decreased amplitudes).Conclusion The study suggested that patients with AN often have concomitant vestibular disorders.Retro-labyrinthine lesions were more frequently observed in this study.GVS-VEMPs combined with ACS-VEMPs may help identify the lesion sites and facilitate detection of areas of vestibular dysfunction in these patients.

Axial uniformity diagnosis of coaxial surface wave linear plasma by optical emission spectroscopy

The coaxial surface wave linear plasma with preeminent axial uniformity is developed with the 2.45 GHz microwave generator.By optical emission spectroscopy,parameters of the argon linear plasma with a length over 600 mm are diagnosed under gas pressure of 30 and 50 Pa and different microwave powers.The spectral lines of argon and Hβ(486.1 nm)atoms in excited state are observed for estimating electron excitation temperature and electron density.Spectrum bands in305–310 nm of diatomic OH(Σ-Π+A X22 i)radicals are used to determine the molecule rotational temperature.Finally,the axial uniformity of electron density and electron excitation temperature are analyzed emphatically under various conditions.The results prove the distinct optimization of compensation from dual powers input,which can narrow the uniform coefficient of electron density and electron excitation temperature by around 40%and 22%respectively.With the microwave power increasing,the axial uniformity of both electron density and electron excitation temperature performs better.Nevertheless,the fluctuation of electron density along the axial direction appeared with higher gas pressure.The axial uniformity of coaxial surface wave linear plasma could be controlled by pressure and power for a better utilization in material processing.

Inducing the SnO2-based electron transport layer into NiFe LDH/NF as efficient catalyst for OER and methanol oxidation reaction

In an electrocatalyst with a heterointerface structure,the different interfaces can efficiently adjust the catalyst’s conductivity and electron arrangement,thereby enhancing the activity of the electrocatalyst.Ultrathin and smaller Ni Fe LDH was successfully constructed on the surface of SnOnanosheet supported NF by layer by layer assembly,and exhibits lower overpotential of 234 mV at a current density of 10 m A cm,which only increases by 6.4%even at a high current density of 100 mA cm.The excellent OER activity of catalyst is attributed to the contribution of the semiconductor SnOelectron transport layer.Through experiments and characterization,3d structure SnOnanosheets control the growth of ultra-thin nickel-iron,the hierarchical interface between SnOand Ni Fe LDH can change the electron arrangement around the iron and nickel active centers at the interface,resulting the valence states of iron slightly increased and Nicontent increased.The result will promote the oxidation of water.Meanwhile,the SnOsemiconductor as electron transport layer is conducive to trapping electrons generated in oxidation reaction,promoting electrons transferring from the Ni Fe LDH active center to the Ni substrate more quickly,and enhance the activity of Ni Fe LDH.It also shows excellent activity in an electrolyte solution containing 0.5 M methanol and 1 M KOH,and only 1.396 V(vs.RHE)is required to drive a current density of 10 mA cm.

Analytical model for the transient permittivity of uncured TiO_(2) whisker/liquid silicone rubber composites under an AC electric field

The electric field grading of dielectric permittivity gradient devices is an effective way of enhancing their insulation properties.The in situ electric field‐driven as-sembly is an advanced method for the fabrication of insulation devices with adaptive permittivity gradients;however,there is no theoretical guidance for design.In this study,an analytical model with a time constant is developed to determine the transient permittivity of uncured composites under an applied AC electric field.This model is based on optical image and dielectric permittivity monitoring,which avoids the direct processing of complex electrodynamics.For a composite with given components,the increased filler content and electric field strength can accelerate the transient process.Compared with the finite element method based on differential equations,this statistical model is simple but efficient,and can be applied to any low‐viscosity uncured composites,which may contain multiple fillers.More importantly,when a voltage is applied to an uncured composite insulating device,the proposed model can be used to analyse the spatiotemporal permittivity characteristics of this device and optimise its permittivity gradient for electric field grading.

Changes in soil faunal density and microbial community under altered litter input in forests and grasslands

Root and foliar litter inputs are the primary sources of carbon and nutrients for soil fauna and microorganisms,yet we still lack a quantitative assessment to evaluate the effects of root and foliar litter on various groups of soil organisms across terrestrial ecosystems.Here,we compiled 978 paired observations from 68 experimental sites to assess the directions and magnitudes of adding and removing foliar and root litter on the soil faunal density and microbial biomass that was evaluated by phospholipid fatty acids(PLFAs)across forests and grasslands worldwide.We found that litter addition had only a marginal effect on soil faunal density but significantly increased the soil total microbial-,fungal-and bacterial-PLFAs by 13%,14%,and 10%,respectively,across ecosystems,suggesting that the soil microbial community is more sensitive to carbon source addition than soil fauna,particularly in soils with low carbon to nitrogen ratios.In contrast,removing litter significantly decreased the soil faunal density by 17%but had few effects on soil microorganisms.Compared with foliar litter,root litter input had a more positive effect on the development of soil fungal taxa.The effect of both litter addition and removal on soil faunal density and microbial biomass did not differ between humid and arid regions,but a greater influence was observed in grasslands than in forests for soil microbial community.Our results highlight that the increasing litter production under a global greening scenario would stimulate microbial activity in grasslands more than in forests,and this stimulation would be greater for soil microbes than soil fauna.
