Previous findings on the threshold for tones as a function of their duration have suggested that such functions may be systematically affected by sensori-neural hearing losses of cochlear origin. The present series of investigations was designed to explore this relation further and to determine also whether the amount of hearing loss present has any effect upon the results which are obtained. Preliminary studies were also carried out on a conductively impaired listener to indicate whether hearing losses of this type affect the threshold-duration function. The results indicate that the threshold-duration function is systematically affected by sensori-neural hearing losses of cochlear origin. This effect is manifested by a progressive shortening of the time constant relating threshold to duration and is not uniquely related to the amount of hearing loss present. The results obtained from the conductively impaired listener suggested that this type of hearing loss has no effect on the threshold-duration function, thereby implying that such functions may contribute significantly to the differential diagnosis of auditory disorders.

On July 8, 2011, Editor-in-Chief Erika Rosenzweig convened a discussion among a group of physicians who work daily with pediatric PH patients to share their thoughts and experiences related to using new therapies with children. Contributing to the conversation were guest editor Dunbar Ivy, MD, Professor of Pediatrics, University of Colorado; Jeffrey A. Feinstein, MD, MPH, Associate Professor, Stanford University School of Medicine; Tilman Humpl, MD, PhD, Associate Professor, Pediatrics, University of Toronto; and Professor Maurice Beghetti, Head of Pediatric Subspecialties Division and Head of Pediatric Cardiology Unit, Children's University Hospital, Geneva, Switzerland.
