Establishing New Pediatric Thresholds for Digits‐In‐Noise Testing

open access: yesLaryngoscope Investigative Otolaryngology, Volume 10, Issue 6, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Objective To determine if specific pediatric diagnostic criteria exist to determine the presence of conductive hearing loss (CHL) digits in noise (DIN) tablet testing in children. Methods One hundred forty nine children aged 3–18 underwent a conventional audiogram, followed by an otolaryngologist examination and tablet‐based digits in noise ...

Gaussian Mixture Modeling of MRI‐Derived Torus Tubarius and Inferior Turbinate Mucosal Morphometrics: Implications for Nasal Cycling and Eustachian Tube Interventions

open access: yesLaryngoscope Investigative Otolaryngology, Volume 10, Issue 6, December 2025.
Thickness of torus tubarius (TT) mucosa overhanging the Eustachian tube (ET) ostium is pertinent to ET balloon tuboplasty. We provide normative TT mucosal morphometrics, and establish that TT mucosal thickness unlikely exhibits variations similar to the nasal cycle.

Possibilities of Inner Ear Barrier Models for Otologic Drug Development

open access: yesAdvanced Therapeutics, Volume 8, Issue 11, November 2025.
This review examines innovative organ chip models that reconstruct critical inner ear barriers, addressing a fundamental challenge in otologic drug development: the limited understanding of pharmaceutical behavior across these complex barriers. By replicating these barriers, the advanced models offer promising alternatives to traditional testing ...

Anti‐Inflammatory Effects of Flavonoids in Otitis Media: A Systematic Review of Pre‐Clinical Evidence

open access: yesFood Frontiers, Volume 6, Issue 6, Page 2554-2574, November 2025.
Otitis media (OM) is a middle ear infection driven by chronic inflammation, leading to tissue damage and complications such as cholesteatoma. Flavonoids, a class of polyphenols with anti‐inflammatory properties, suppress key inflammatory mediators, reducing neutrophilic infiltration and mucosal thickening. These findings suggest flavonoids as potential

Optical Coherence Tomography for the Diagnosis and Evaluation of Human Otitis Media [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We report the application of optical coherence tomography (OCT) to the diagnosis and evaluation of otitis media (OM). Whereas conventional diagnostic modalities for OM, including standard and pneumatic otoscopy, are limited to visualizing the surface of ...
