such a loss of temporal acuity might contribute to the poor sensitivity to temporal fine structure that has been reported in human ci users. |

seemingly, the degraded temporal acuity that we observed in cats was even worse than the fine-structure sensitivity of human ci users, suggesting that most patients experience some improvement of temporal acuity resulting from restoration of patterned auditory nerve stimulation by a ci. |
