Establishing New Pediatric Thresholds for Digits‐In‐Noise Testing
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 ...

Possibilities of Inner Ear Barrier Models for Otologic Drug Development
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 ...

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]
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 ...
