Predisposing factors for inner ear hearing loss association with chronic otitis media.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:Working memory refers to a cognitive system that manages information processing and temporary storage. Recent work has demonstrated that individual differences in working memory capacity measured using a reading span task are related to ability to recognize speech in noise. In this project, we investigated wh...
