摘要
目的 利用听觉事件相关电位评估语前聋儿童人工耳蜗(cochlear implant,CI)植入者对元音、辅音和声调的早期听觉加工能力.方法 2021年2月到2024年2月期间招募19例语前聋CI儿童(男12例、女7例,年龄3～8岁,平均6.0岁)和19例听力正常(normal hearing,NH)儿童(男12例、女7例,年龄4～9岁,平均6.8岁).使用单音节/tai/作为标准刺激,/tu1/,/te1/,/da1/,/ra1/,/ta4/和/ta2/作为偏差刺激,构建多偏差oddball范式.记录并分析两组儿童由元音、辅音和声调变化诱发的事件相关电位.应用SPSS 24.0软件对数据进行统计学分析.结果 NH儿童对元音、辅音和声调变化均表现出显著的失匹配负波(mismatch negativity,MMN)(P＜0.05),而CI儿童对元音和辅音变化仅表现出正向失匹配反应(positive mismatch response,pMMR)(P＜0.05)和P3a反应(P＜0.05),且未对声调变化表现出任何事件相关电位(P＞0.05).与NH儿童相比,CI儿童的pMMR和P3a潜伏期更长(P＜0.01),两组间幅值差异无统计学意义(P＞0.05).时频分析显示,CI儿童的θ频段神经振荡同步性较NH儿童低(P＜0.05).相关性分析显示,CI儿童的CI使用时间与听觉能力分级量表(Categories of Auditory Performance,CAP)(P=0.004)、言语可懂度分级量表(Speech Intelligibility Rate,SIR)(P=0.044)和有意义听觉整合量表(Meaningful Auditory Integration Scale,MAIS)(P=0.001)得分呈正相关.结论 语前聋CI儿童对元音和辅音具备一定的早期听觉加工能力,但与同龄NH儿童相比,语前聋CI儿童对语音尤其是声调的加工能力仍不成熟.事件相关电位可作为反映CI儿童听觉言语功能成熟度的客观电生理指标.坚持长期佩戴CI有助于语前聋儿童听觉言语能力的提高.
Abstract
Objective To investigate the early auditory discrimination of vowels,consonants and lexical tones in prelingually-deafened children with cochlear implants(CI)using auditory event-related potentials.Methods Nineteen prelingually-deafened CI children and 19 normal hearing(NH)children were recruited in this study.A multi-deviant oddball paradigm was constructed using the monosyllable/ta1/as the standard stimulus and monosyllables/tu1/,/te1/,/da1/,/ra1/,/ta4/and/ta2/as the deviant stimuli.The event-related potentials evoked by vowel,consonant and lexical tone contrasts were recorded and analyzed in the two groups.Results NH children showed robust mismatch negativities(MMNs)to vowel,consonant and lexical tone contrasts(P＜0.05),whereas CI children only showed positive mismatch responses(pMMRs)and P3a responses to the vowel(P＜0.05)and consonant contrasts(P＜0.05)and no significant event-related potential to the lexical tone contrasts(P＞0.05).The longer pMMR and P3a peak latencies(P＜0.01)but similar amplitudes(P＞0.05)were found in CI children than in NH children.CI children showed weaker phase synchronization of θ oscillations than NH children(P＜0.05).The duration of Cl use was positively correlated with the scores of Categories of Auditory Performance(CAP)(P=0.004),Speech Intelligibility Rate(SIR)(P=0.044)and Meaningful Auditory Integration Scale(MAIS)(P=0.001)in CI children.Conclusions Prelingually-deafened CI children can process vowels and consonants at an early stage.However,their ability of processing speech,especially lexical tones,is still more immature compared with their NH peers.The event-related potentials could be objective electrophysiological indicators reflecting the maturity of CI children's auditory speech functions.Long-term CI use is beneficial for prelingually-deafened children to improve auditory and speech performance.
