TL;DR: A significant decrease of cochlear sensitivity during the period of attention to visual stimuli in the animals performing the visual discrimination task, but not in those performing the auditory task, demonstrating that this physiological effect is related to selective attention toVisual stimuli rather than to an increment in arousal level.

TL;DR: A working model of three parallel pathways from the auditory cortex to the cochlea and auditory nerve is proposed and special emphasis is given to the corticofugal effects on initial auditory processing, that is, on CN, auditory nerve and cochlear responses.

TL;DR: In this mini review, age-related degenerative processes that affect balance are presented and diagnostic and therapeutic approaches oriented to the specific impaired system, including visual, proprioceptive, and vestibular pathways, are proposed.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that auditory cortex electrical microstimulation independently modulates the OC reflex strength and cochlear sensitivity and that both corticofugal effects were not correlated, suggesting the presence of two functionally different efferent pathways.

TL;DR: This work proposes that tinnitus can only develop after fast auditory fiber activity has stimulated the synapse formation between fast-spiking parvalbumin positive (PV+) interneurons and projecting neurons in the ascending auditory path and coactivated frontostriatal networks after hearing onset.
