Noise-induced hearing threshold shifts of left (implanted) and right (not implanted) ears. (A) Directly after the noise trauma, there was a significant difference in the threshold shifts between left (implanted) and right (not implanted) ears at 16 kHz. (B) One week after the noise insult, there was frequency-specific recovery that led to a significant difference between the ears. Only 500 Hz, 1 kHz and 2 kHz showed no significant difference. Only significant differences are illustrated in A and B; * p ≤ 0.05.
