Selective Vulnerability of the Cochlear Basal Turn to Acrylonitrile and Noise

Statistical comparisons
between groups for (a) DPOAE amplitudes, (b) CAP thresholds, and (c) hair cell
loss at 4 weeks postexposure: Bonferroni’s post-hoc comparisons with
as the significant limit. The parent analyses were repeated measure ANOVAs with
“exposure” as between factor and “frequency” as a within
factor. The colored bands illustrate the frequency range for which Bonferroni’s
comparisons between groups yielded . ns: not significantly
different. Note: for the CAP
technique, the significance range is presented as “above x kHz” because it does
not allow measurements above 40 kHz, whereas the significance is likely more extended
toward high frequencies.
