  • Title: Subjective and electrophysiologic tests in brain-stem lesions.
    Author: Stephens SD, Thornton AR.
    Journal: Arch Otolaryngol; 1976 Oct; 102(10):608-13. PubMed ID: 971133.
    Abstract:
    A battery of subjective and electrophysiologic auditory and vestibular tests were administered to 22 patients with neurologically confirmed brain-stem lesions to investigate the interrelationships between the test results. Acoustic-reflex and simultaneous midplane binaural loudness-balance abnormalities were related to N2 and N3 abnormalities on the brain-stem evoked-response measures. Unilateral abnormalities in low-redundancy speech tests, prolonged auditory reaction times, and reduced loudness growth on the alternate binaural loudness-balance test were related to ipsilateral N4 abnormalities or contralateral N5 abnormalities on the brain-stem evoked-response measures.
