abstract：BACKGROUND:High doses of acetylsalicylic acid (ASS) induce tinnitus and hearing loss. This ototoxic side effect of ASS is characterized by a decrease in spontaneous and evoked otoacoustic emissions. A decrease in otoacoustic emissions is found not only in mammals, but also in non-mammalian ears without electromotile ou...
