Role of alcohol and smoking in diagnostic delay of head and neck cancer patients.

abstract：:Nl action potentials, elicited by low-level, 4.0-kHz filtered clicks, were recorded from the ear canals of normal-hearing adults. Responses were recorded at two sensation levels in the presence and absence of a pure tone delivered to the contralateral ear. Waveforms were analysed for changes in amplitude and latency. ...
