Speech Recognition Deficits in Presbyacusis: Links to Cortical Structural and Functional Alterations
ABSTRACT Objective To characterize speech recognition in presbyacusis and its associated neurophysiological and cortical structural features, and to explore structure‐function‐behavior relationships within the presbyacusis phenotype. Methods Thirty elderly patients with presbyacusis(HI) and thirty‐three healthy young controls(NH) completed a behavioral

Perilymph Gusher in Cochlear Implantation Surgery: An Algorithm for Management
ABSTRACT Objective Perilymph leak is considered a major complication of cochlear implantation (CI) surgery and can lead to surgical difficulties and postoperative morbidities. This study is aimed to formulate an algorithm for better management of perilymph leak in cases of CI. Methods This is a retrospective study conducted in our tertiary institute on

Reconstruction of amputated auricle with retroauricular flap after human bite
Background: Amputations of the earlobe after a human bite are rare. But when they appear, they present a challenge for the plastic surgeon, due to its reconstruction, since the earlobe is anatomically built only from skin and cartilage, without the pres-

In 2015 the World Health Assembly (WHO), based on recommendations by the Lancet Commission on Global Surgery, passed resolution (68:15) on strengthening emergency and essential surgical care and anesthesia as a component of universal health coverage. However, children's surgery was not adequately represented and in response, the Global Initiative for ...

Typhlomys daloushanensis, a poorly known and unique echolocating rodent. Using a captive breeding colony, we quantify key reproductive parameters, including gestation length, litter size, interbirth interval, and development to maturity, and evaluate these in relation to mating system structure.

A validated 3D point‐cloud analysis workflow for the creation of seagrass canopy height models
Abstract Seagrasses support highly productive ecosystems in both temperate and tropical waters and provide essential ecosystem services. Despite their importance, the vertical structure of seagrasses (i.e. the canopy) remains poorly characterised at the microscale, even though it is a strong predictor of ecological processes that influence both ...
