Altered Brain Activity and Functional Connectivity in Unilateral Sudden Sensorineural Hearing Loss.

abstract：:The entorhinal cortex (EC) is a nodal and independent mnemonic element of the medial temporal lobe memory circuit as it forms a bidirectional interface between the neocortex and hippocampus. Within the EC, intra- and inter-lamellar associational connections occur via horizontal and columnar projections, respectively. ...
