Thank you for your reply.
"There are molecules that could not be used up between ultra-high frequencies and 9000Hz. Those residual molecules descend to lower levels of 800 0Hz, 6000Hz (and 4000Hz).
The remaining molecules are those that were not used to regenerate the deficient hair cells.
Therefore, with multiple injections, the number of molecules used at higher frequencies will decrease, and the number of remaining molecules will increase. It will reach lower frequencies."
But,
I am concerned that the unused molecules will not move to lower frequencies.
My thinking is as follows. Immediately after injection, the molecule is located in the center of the lymph and flows, reaching from ultra-high frequencies to 8000 Hz, 6000 Hz (and 4000 Hz), which implants into the supporting cells. Implanted molecules do not emerge in the center of the lymph. Therefore, I think it is difficult for unused molecules to get into the flow of lymph.
Isn't it difficult to get into the lymphatic flow?
Due to precipitation on supporting cells.
I have no academic knowledge, but I am worried.
In Phase 1/2, a group of patients with more severe hearing loss showed improved word recognition scores and a 10 dB improvement at 8000 Hz.
In the group with milder hearing loss, there was no improvement in word recognition scores and no improvement of 10 dB at 8000 Hz.
Are the number of molecules used above 9000 Hz the same in both groups?
I think if the molecule moves to the low frequencies area, the group with milder hearing loss uses fewer molecules above 9000 Hz and more molecules reach up to 8000 Hz.
But, in the group with milder hearing loss, no improvement of 10 dB at 8000 Hz was reported.
Is the reason for this phenomenon because dB is a logarithmic function, so better hearing requires the regeneration of more hair cells for the same 10 dB improvement?
Even if there is no movement of unused molecules to the low frequency area, if the first injection has a slight dB improvement effect, is it possible that the repetition and accumulation will result in 10 dB improvement?
