Task: Answer Verification
Input (English): Question: Does behavioral and neural discrimination of speech sound after moderate or intense noise exposure in rats?
Answer: These results suggest that rats are able to adjust to the neural changes after moderate NE and discriminate speech sounds, but they are not able to recover behavioral abilities after intense NE. Animal models could help clarify the adaptive and pathological neural changes that contribute to speech processing in hearing-impaired populations and could be used to test potential behavioral and pharmacological therapies.
Output (English): yes
