Evoked otoacoustic emissions (EOAE) and sound evoked olivocochlear feedback were performed in 200 subjects (noise induced hearing loss (NIHL), n = 109; sensori-neural hearing loss (SNHL), n = 91). Intensity of EOAE is greater in NIHL than in SNHL. This result does not seem to be related to the medial olivocochlear system since sound olivocochlear feedback was not significantly different between the two groups. No correlations were seen between temporary threshold shifts (TTS) and sound-olivocochlear feedback in the NIHL group.
