Distortion Product Otoacoustic Emissions and Their Suppression as Predictors of Peripheral Auditory Damage in Migraine: A Case-Control Study

Although several cochleo-vestibular symptoms are commonly associated with migraine, only a limited number of studies have been done in this regard. Some reported abnormalities in audiometry, auditory brainstem response and vestibular tests, considering these manifestations mainly related to central...
