Contemporary Clinical Management of Otosyphilis for Practicing Otolaryngologists—A Scoping Review
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.Otosyphilis has reemerged alongside increasing syphilis rates, highlighting the need for early recognition to prevent severe audiovestibular complications. A scoping review and retrospective case series indicate that most patients present with hearing loss, tinnitus, or vertigo and typically respond to penicillin‐based treatment.

Efficacy and Safety of Intratympanic Botulinum Toxin Injection on Middle Ear Myoclonic Tinnitus
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.Intratympanic Botulinum toxin (IT‐BTX) injection appears to be an effective and safe treatment for MEMT, significantly reducing tinnitus‐related symptoms without complications. In a retrospective study of 57 patients, THI scores and VAS measures for loudness, awareness, annoyance, and life impact improved significantly over 6 months.

Tactile responses in pure-tone audiometry: a saccule function? [PDF]
European Archives of Oto-Rhino-Laryngology, 2013 As generally accepted, low-frequency bone-conduction thresholds obtained in the 35–55 dB range are often tactile responses and not due to auditory stimulation [4]. Since it is recently known that low-frequency airand bone-conducted stimuli can be used to test otolithic function also in humans [2], we wondered if such ‘‘false-positive’’ boneconduction ...

Predictors of Early and Long‐Term Sound Quality Ratings in Adult Cochlear Implant Recipients
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.This longitudinal study of 339 adult cochlear implant recipients demonstrates that subjective sound quality ratings improve significantly during the first 6 months post‐activation before plateauing, with early outcomes predicted by electrode placement factors (closer modiolar distance and deeper insertion depth), pre‐operative sound quality, and word ...
