Old World monkeys were exposed to octaveband noise from 0.5 to 8 kHz at 120 dB SPL, 8 hours daily for 20 days. Restricted permanent threshold shifts and localized loss of outer hair cells were produced, which were reasonably well correlated with the exposure frequencies. There was also a loss of both inner and outer hair cells at the extreme basal end of Corti's organ, regardless of the exposure frequency. Implications for human inner ear pathology are discussed.
将旧大陆猴暴露于120分贝声压级、频率范围为0.5至8千赫的倍频带噪声中，每天8小时，持续20天。结果产生了永久性阈移受限和外毛细胞局部缺失，且这些结果与暴露频率具有较好的相关性。此外，无论暴露频率如何，柯蒂氏器最底部的内、外毛细胞均有缺失。文中还讨论了该研究对人类内耳病理学的意义。
