Changes in the functional connectivity of auditory and language-related brain regions in children with congenital severe sensorineural hearing loss: An fMRI study

Publication date: August 2019Source: Journal of Neurolinguistics, Volume 51Author(s): Qiang Li, Huang Guo, Lihua Liu, Shuang XiaAbstractEarly hearing deprivation can affect the development of hearing, language, and vision. Thirty-four infants with congenital severe sensorineural hearing loss (CSSHL) and 20 age- and sex-matched subjects with normal hearing were recruited. The amplitude of low-frequency fluctuation (ALFF) of auditory and language-related brain areas was compared between infants with deafness and control subjects. Relative to subjects with normal hearing, infants with CSSHL had decreased ALFF values in the right Brodmann's area (BA) 22 region and in parts of several language-related regions. As the duration of hearing loss increased, the ALFF values in the left auditory and l...
