Aim Deficits in synchronous, gamma-frequency neural oscillations may contribute to schizophrenia patients’ real-world functional impairment and can be measured electroencephalographically using the auditory steady-state response (ASSR). Gamma ASSR deficits have been reported in schizophrenia patients and individuals at clinical high risk (CHR) for developing psychosis. We hypothesized that, in CHR patients, gamma ASSR would correlate with real-world functioning, consistent with a role for gamma synchrony deficits in functional impairment. Methods A total of 35 CHR patients rated on Global Functioning: Social and Role scales had EEG recorded while listening to 1-ms, 93-dB clicks presented at 40 Hz in 500-ms trains, in response to which 40-Hz evoked power and intertrial phase-locking factor (PLF) were measured. Results In CHR patients, lower 40-Hz PLF correlated with lower social functioning. Conclusions Gamma synchrony deficits may be a biomarker of real-world impairment at early stages of the schizophrenia disease trajectory.

The auditory steady state response (ASSR) has recently gained attention with respect to estimates of hearing sensitivity and configuration of hearing loss. The present investigation compared behavioral thresholds to estimated ASSR thresholds in subjects with confirmed CANS lesions to determine if this population can be accurately evaluated with ASSR techniques. Comparisons were made between the experimental group and a normal control group matched for age and hearing sensitivity. ASSR thresholds were obtained for the carrier frequencies of 500 and 2000 Hz with a 46 Hz modulation rate and compared to behavioral thresholds. Within and between group comparisons were made. The control group demonstrated strong correlation between their behavioral and estimated ASSR thresholds which significantly contrasted the neurological group. Additionally, individuals with neurological impairment of the CANS exhibited elevated thresholds that were on average 24 dB greater at 2000 Hz than their behavioral thresholds. These results suggest that individuals with neurological insult may appear as hearing impaired or having greater hearing loss than is actually present. As a result, the ASSR may demonstrate the potential to assist in the detection of CANS dysfunction. Las respuestas auditivas de estado estable (ASSR) han ganado atención recientemente con respecto a la estimación de la sensibilidad auditiva y la configuración de la pérdida auditiva. La presente investigación comparó los umbrales conductuales con umbrales estimados por ASSR en sujetos con lesiones CANS confirmadas para determinar si esta población podía ser evaluada con exactitud por medio de técnicas de ASSR. Las comparaciones se realizaron entre el grupo experimental y un grupo control normal ordenados por edad y sensibilidad auditiva. Los umbrales de los ASSR se obtuvieron por medio de frecuencias portadoras de 500 y 2000 Hz, con una tasa de modulación de 46 Hz y se compararon con los umbrales conductuales. Se realizaron comparaciones entre los grupos y dentro de un mismo grupo. El grupo de control mostró una fuerte correlación entre sus umbrales conductuales y los estimados por ASSR, que contrastó significativamente con el grupo neurológico. Adicionalmente, los individuos con un trastorno neurológico de CANS exhibieron umbrales elevados que fueron en promedio 24 dB más alto en 2000 Hz que sus umbrales conductuales. Estos resultados sugieren que los individuos con alteraciones neurológicas pueden lucir como alterados auditivamente o teniendo una pérdida auditiva mayor de la realidad. Como resultados, los ASSR puede demostrar el potencial para ayudar en la detección de la disfunción por CANS.

OBJECTIVE: To report an infant with congenital cytomegalovirus and progressive sensorineural hearing loss, who was assessed by three methods of hearing evaluation. CASE DESCRIPTION: In the first audiometry, at four months of age, the infant showed abnormal response in Otoacoustic Emissions and normal Auditory Brainstem Response (ABR), with electrophysiological threshold in 30dBnHL, in both ears. With six months of age, he showed bilateral absence of the ABR at 100dBnHL. The behavioral observational audiometry was impaired due to the delay in neuropsychomotor development. At eight months of age, he was submitted to Auditory Steady State Response (ASSR) and the thresholds were 50, 70, absent in 110 and in 100dB, respectively for 500, 1,000, 2,000 and 4,000Hz in the right ear, and 70, 90, 90 and absent in 100dB, respectively for 500, 1,000, 2,000 and 4,000Hz in the left ear. COMMENTS: In the first evaluation, the infant had abnormal Otoacoustic Emission and normal ABR, which became altered at six months of age. The hearing loss severity could be identified only by the ASSR, which allowed the best procedure for hearing aids adaptation. The case description highlights the importance of the hearing status follow-up for children with congenital cytomegalovirus.

Objectives: To compare the hearing thresholds obtained with auditory brainstem response (ABR) and auditory steady state response (ASSR) audiometry in children with hearing loss. Methods: Hearing thresholds were obtained by ABR and ASSR in children who presented with suspicion of deafness at Ear, nose & throat department of Al-Nafees Medical College Hospital Islamabad, between January to August 2018. The mean hearing thresholds obtained by two tests were compared within each category of severity of deafness. Time taken by both tests was also compared. Results: A total of 57 patients (114 ears) were included in the study. Among them 27 (47.4%) were male and 30 (52.6%) were female. The mean age of patients at presentation was 42 months (±30.9) with age range from one to 12 years. Mean hearing thresholds obtained by click ABR, chirp ABR, ASSR (1, 2, 4 kHz) & ASSR (0.5, 1, 2, 4 kHz) was 56.25 (±27.61), 58.88 (±27.44), 58.03 (±21.26) & 56.35 (±22.86) respectively. Mean thresholds were comparable between click ABR & ASSR (1, 2, 4 kHz) and between chirp ABR & ASSR (0.5, 1, 2, 4 kHz) in all degrees of hearing loss categories except in those patients with normal hearing thresholds. The mean time taken by clicks ABR, chirp ABR and ASSR were four minutes seven seconds, three minutes 15 seconds and 16 minutes and 7 seconds respectively. Conclusions: Hearing thresholds obtained by ABR and ASSR are comparable in all categories of severity of hearing loss. The time taken by ABR is less as compared to ASSR.
