Risk Factors for Hearing Loss Are Comparable in Preterm Versus Term Children: A Systematic Review
ABSTRACT Aim Hearing loss occurs more frequently in preterm children. However, the influence of prematurity itself is unclear. We examined whether risk factors for hearing loss differ between preterm and term infants. Methods We conducted a systematic search of three databases in March 2023 for studies comparing risk factors for hearing loss in preterm

The Diverse Genetic Landscape of Hearing Impairment in South African Families
South African Families with Nonsyndromic (N = 24) and Syndromic Hearing Impairment (N = 21) with ≥ 2 affected members were analyzed. The underlying etiology was uncovered using exome and Sanger sequencing for 31 of these families. ABSTRACT To elucidate the genetic etiology of hearing impairment (HI) in South Africa, 45 nonsyndromic HI (NSHI) and ...

Non-organic hearing loss: new and confirmed findings [PDF]
Although non-organic hearing losses are relatively rare, it is important to identify suspicious findings early to be able to administer specific tests, such as objective measurements and specific counseling.

Long‐Term Cochlear Implant Sensitivity in Patients With Far Advanced Otosclerosis
This study aimed to evaluate mid‐ and long‐term cochlear implant fitting in otosclerosis patients compared to a control group. It suggested significant tissue remodeling at the cochlear apex in otosclerosis patients, likely increasing resistance to electrical currents delivered by the implant.

Evaluation of Vestibular Evoked Myogenic Potentials in Different Dynamic Equilibrium Conditions
ABSTRACT Objectives This study aimed to investigate balance system modifications under different conditions using cervical Vestibular Evoked Myogenic Potentials (c‐VEMP) testing. Specifically, we examined vestibular compensation mechanisms in various dynamic balance positions through evoked potential analysis.

Effect of headphone position on absolute threshold measurements
International audiencePure-tone audiometry (measurement of absolute thresholds using pure tones) is the main test for the diagnosis of hearing loss. The aim of the present study is to determine whether the headphone placement over a listener’s ears has ...

Comprehensive Genetic Analysis of NF2 in Sporadic Vestibular Schwannoma
Comprehensive genetic analyses, including whole‐exome sequencing, methylation analysis, and MLPA, are essential for accurately identifying NF2 inactivation mechanisms in sporadic vestibular schwannomas. The findings suggest that NF2 methylation may contribute to variations in clinical presentation.

Hearing loss in workers exposed to different type of noise
It's well documented that noise damages peripheral part of the auditory tract (cochlea). Only few investigations were performed to assess central hearing disturbances caused by noise on animal.
