Immediate improvement of speech-in-noise perception through multisensory stimulation via an auditory to tactile sensory substitution.

abstract：PURPOSE:The interest in human conscious awareness has increasingly propelled the study of neglect, the most striking occurrence of an acquired lack of conscious experience of space. Neglect syndromes commonly arise after unilateral brain damage that spares primary sensory areas nonetheless leading to a lack of consciou...

abstract：PURPOSE:Exogenously applied BDNF has been shown to rescue rat retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) from axotomy-induced apoptotic death, presumably via activation of its high affinity receptor TrkB. Since both TrkB and BDNF are endogenously expressed in RGCs, auto- or para-crine neurotrophic loops in the retina may be involve...
