Adjunctive Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy or Intratympanic Steroids in Sudden Sensorineural Hearing Loss?
Sudden sensorineural hearing loss is traditionally treated with steroids, either orally and/or via intratympanic injections, and hyperbaric oxygen treatment (HBOT) has resurged in popularity as an adjunctive therapy. The study has not found any additional treatment benefit with adjunctive concurrent HBOT; however, HBOT might be of value to patients ...

Screaming‐Induced Acute Noise Exposure During Pediatric Ear Procedures
Pediatric ENT procedures can generate rapid spikes in noise exposure due to patient screaming. Real‐time LAeq and cumulative dose measurements showed that recommended limits may be exceeded within minutes. These findings highlight acute acoustic risks for healthcare providers and the need for sensory‐adapted care environments.

Impact of Socioeconomic Disparities Among Pediatric Airway and Otology Patients on Access to Care
Otology patients were more likely to be referred to the specialty clinic, have fewer no shows, and attend a higher number of follow up visits despite having minimal differences in social demographics. Future study targeting follow‐up and retention for airway clinic patients is needed.

Improved Bone Conduction and Hearing Outcomes After Stapes Surgery for Otosclerosis
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the improvement in bone conduction (BC) thresholds after stapes surgery for otosclerosis, compare the outcomes of surgical techniques, and analyze the short‐ and long‐term results to inform treatment strategies. Methods We retrospectively reviewed data from 173 patients (188 ears) who underwent total stapedectomy, partial

Within‐ and Between‐Channel Gaps Elicit Mismatch Negativity in the Aging Brain
This study examined the cortical responses of older and younger adults with normal hearing to silent gaps using EEG and behavioral gap detection. Behavioral gap detection thresholds did not differ across conditions in older adults. DRN and peak‐to‐peak DRN‐P2/P3a demonstrate subtle neural alterations in temporal resolution that may precede behavioral ...

Adverse Drug Reaction Study of Botulinum Toxin‐A in the Real World
ABSTRACT Background Despite the increasing use of botulinum toxin type A (BoNT‐A) in aesthetic and therapeutic applications, its real‐world adverse drug reaction (ADR) profile remains incompletely characterized. Current evidence relies largely on small‐scale clinical observations rather than large, systematic analyses.

Phenol Neurolysis in Pain and Palliative Medicine
ABSTRACT Background Pain is a common symptom in palliative care and affects patients' quality of life considerably. Standard analgesics are sometimes insufficient and are associated with substantial side effects. Neurolysis, the targeted destruction of nerves using thermal or chemical agents, offers an additional option for managing localized pain in ...

Multimodal therapy for chronic tinnitus.
From 2001 to 2006, we performed a retrospective study of patients suffering from chronic unilateral or bilateral tinnitus that was previously ineffectively treated by oral drugs [betahistine (Betaserc), extract of Ginkgo biloba (EGb 761), tanakan (Tebokan), and cinnarizine-dimenhydrinate (Arlevert), singly or in combination].
