title: [Audiometric and dynamometric parameters of functional brain asymmetry].
abstract: We examined influence of intensive noise on auditory and musculoskeletal system in series of audiometric and dynamometric tests. We considered Karhart's tooth asymmetry and asymmetry of muscular strength of the upper extremities. We demonstrate the significance of these parameters in diagnosis of functional cortical asymmetry and central hearing pathology; provide audiometric and dynamometric evidence of the structure of cortical auditory pathways, the integral function of the auditory cortex, pathophysiological nature of functional asymmetry and their correlation.
