Summary: This study aimed to evaluate diagnostic and hearing patterns in children with Down Syndrome (DS), Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), Global Developmental delay (GDD), and Cerebral Palsy (CP) who were unable to complete reliable BA testing due to severe cognitive delay. Results showed a high incidence of hearing loss, especially sensorineural hearing loss, in children with significant cognitive delays, emphasizing the importance of prompt Auditory Brainstem Response testing in these patients. Multiple unsuccessful behavioral audiometry tests contribute to prolonged time to diagnosis and treatment for these patients.

Summary: A slab with three tetradactyl avian footprints, named Urmiornis abeli, was found in the Agha Jari Formation in the Zagros Mountains, Iran. The validity of Iranipeda abeli has been discussed and the original material has been revised. Based on re-examination, I. abeli is confirmed to be a valid species with unique characteristics compared to other large wading bird footprints. Iranipeda includes three ichnospecies: I. abeli, I. millumi, and I. intermedia.

Summary: This study evaluated foot deformities and anomalies in patients with congenital limb deficiencies (CLDs), finding heterogeneity in the spectrum of foot and ankle deformity, particularly in fibular hemimelia (FH). The relationship between the type of limb deficiency and foot posture, patterns of ray deficiencies, and association between tarsal coalition (TC) and ball-and-socket ankle was defined. Foot and ankle deformities varied in different types of CLDs, emphasizing the importance of recognizing phenotypic variations for formulating comprehensive treatment plans and ensuring optimal functional outcomes for patients.

Summary: Changes in river environments due to elevation gradients have a significant impact on living organisms, especially aquatic insects like Ephemera mayflies, where there is a tendency for species to be replaced between upstream and downstream environments. By analyzing habitat information and environmental factors, it was found that the distribution patterns of three Ephemera mayflies are closely related to environmental factors associated with altitudinal gradients. Despite niche differentiations and slight inter-species competition, their distribution patterns show mild differences according to the altitudinal gradient.

Summary: The study found that Lateral Superior Olive (LSO) neurons exhibit exquisite sensitivity to interaural time differences (ITDs) and can accurately process transient sound information. Inhibition in LSO neurons can block excitation over an extremely short window, achieved through inhibitory synapses on the axon initial segment.

Summary: Research on the neural mechanisms underlying monaural edge pitch and its role in neural coding revealed that temporal cues show a better correspondence with behavioral results, suggesting that slower temporal cue could be a more plausible basis for pitch than cues based on stimulus fine-structure.

Summary: Mechanosensation is crucial for hearing, balance, and touch. The auditory system achieves ultrafast speed and high audio-frequency hearing through the interaction between mechanical sensitivity and synaptic responses.

Summary: The study of communication sounds is crucial in hearing research. This paper highlights the importance of another class of sounds that are often overlooked but equally important for the survival of many species and the evolution of the mammalian auditory system. Research suggests that all terrestrial mammals produce adventitious sounds when they move, with high-frequency transients being a significant component. The limited acoustic propagation of these sounds indicates the presence of nearby animals, making the detection and localization of high-frequency transients vital for both prey and predator. Understanding the significance of adventitious sounds is important for grasping auditory morphological and physiological features.

Summary: Octopus cells in the mammalian cochlear nucleus are remarkable neurons that have fast membranes and wide-frequency tuning. They exhibit direction selectivity in response to frequency sweeps, which is not present in their auditory nerve inputs. The selectivity is achieved through the interaction between the activation sequence of auditory nerve inputs and intrinsic membrane conductances. This finding suggests that octopus cells are sequence detectors, sensitive to temporal patterns across different cochlear frequency channels.

Summary: Counts of spike coincidences can be used to compare responses to different stimuli or different neurons, especially in terms of temporal factors. However, these methods do not provide an absolute measurement of latency, i.e., the time interval between stimulus features and response. Thus, it is desirable to have such a measure within the analysis framework of coincidence counting.
