    Effect of Lexical Neighbourhood on Word Recognition Test: a Study in Turkish
    (Tehran Univ Medical Sciences, 2023) Arslan, Berkay; Ozluoglu, Levent Naci; Audiology
    Background and Aim: Word Recognition Test (WRT) is a widely used component of routine audiology battery. Several studies were conducted on the effect of words in word recognition lists and whether word difficulty level had an effect in word recalling process of patients. This study aims to compare the scores of patients to the designed Baskent WRT and commonly used Hacettepe WRT by focusing on the lexical neighbourhood. Methods: Study carried out in an Ear Nose and Throat Department of a private university hospital between June and August 2021. 34 persons with sensorineural hearing loss and 34 persons without hearing loss was participated in the study. Designed WRT and widely used common WRT were presented to the participants. Results: Results showed that common WRT included words with more lexical neighbours and sensorineural hearing loss group scores were significantly lower compared to designed WRT. Conclusion: Persons with sensorineural hearing loss have a tendency to misunderstand presented words in WRT as they may trigger other words and misguide the patient.

    The Effect of Instant Stimulation To Kidney 3 Acupuncture Point on DPOAE Responses in Patients With Tinnitus
    (Sage Publications inc, 2025) Arslan, Berkay; Tuncer, Sebahattin; Audiology
    Introduction Tinnitus is the perception of sound in the ear or brain in the absence of any external stimulation. Theories regarding tinnitus pathology often involve both cochlear involvement and central regions. Different and alternative medical treatment options have been widely used to help individuals suffering from tinnitus. Objective This study aims to investigate the effect of instant stimulation to the Kidney 3 (KI3) acupuncture point on distortion product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAE) in patients with tinnitus. Material and Method Thirty patients (21 male, 9 female) with subjective tinnitus and normal hearing were included in the study. A total of 39 ears (22 left ears, 17 right ears) were evaluated. After audiological evaluations, the effects of instantaneous stimulation of the bilateral KI3 acupuncture point on DPOAE at frequencies ranging from 1,000 to 6,000 Hz were measured. Results There was a significant difference between amplitudes before and during acupuncture application at all tested frequencies, except at 4,000 Hz in patients with tinnitus in the right ear. There was also a significant difference between amplitudes of before and after acupuncture application at 3,000 and 4,000 Hz in patients with tinnitus in the left ear. Lower amplitude was observed at these frequencies compared with before the application. In patients with bilateral tinnitus, there was a significant amplitude difference between before and during application at 1,000, 2,000, and 3,000 Hz frequencies for the left ear. Conclusion Instant stimulation to the KI3 acupuncture point changed DPOAE amplitude values in patients with tinnitus.
