Restoration, Not Bypass: Otoferlin Gene Therapy and a New Era in Hearing Loss Treatment

Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
Abstract The FDA approval of Otarmeni, an AAV‐based gene therapy for biallelic OTOF‐associated sensorineural hearing loss, represents a conceptual shift in otology: from bypassing defective auditory physiology to restoring it. Unlike cochlear implantation, which circumvents damaged sensory structures, OTOF gene replacement targets a synaptic deficit in

Advances in deep‐tissue fluorescence imaging through optical clearing: A review

VIEW, EarlyView.
Optical clearing refers to techniques that are used to improve the optical transparency of biological tissues. Optical clearing enables imaging of deeper lying tissues as well as 3D volumetric imaging of whole organs. This review examines reports on the integration of optical clearing with advanced fluorescence imaging techniques, with particular ...

Comorbidity Patterns Between Hearing Loss and Symptomatic Dizziness in Middle‐Aged and Older Adults

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To explore the comorbidity patterns between hearing loss and symptomatic dizziness (HL‐SD) in middle‐aged and older adults. Methods This cross‐sectional study used data from the 1999 to 2004 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). After excluding incomplete data, 2961 participants aged 40–69 were analyzed. Logistic

Epac1 Alleviates Senescence in Auditory Hair Cells via the Ferroptosis

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives The aim of this study was to investigate the changes in Epac1 and ferroptosis‐related proteins in aged mice and the House Ear Institute‐Organ of Corti 1 (HEI‐OC1) cells, with the goal of elucidating their potential role in age‐related hearing loss. Methods The expression of Epac1 in the cochlea of C57BL/6J mice was examined by using

The Relationship Between Blood Lipids, Coagulation Indexes, Blood Homocysteine and Sudden Deafness: A Retrospective Study and Mendelian Randomization Analysis

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Certain blood components, including blood lipids, coagulation parameters, and homocysteine, have been suggested to correlate with the incidence and prognosis of sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSNHL). However, the nature of these associations remains controversial.

An Experimental Study on the Protective Effect of Memantine in Noise‐Induced Hearing Loss

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This study examined the potential protective effects of memantine, an N‐methyl‐D‐aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist, against acoustic trauma (AT) in guinea pigs, using electrophysiological and histopathological analyses. Methods Thirty guinea pigs with normal hearing were divided into six groups (n = 5 per group): Group 1 (control),

Perilymph Gusher in Cochlear Implantation Surgery: An Algorithm for Management

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
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

Decoding Dual Regulatory Layers: Integrating Differential Expression and Alternative Splicing Dynamics in the Evolution of Laryngeal Echolocation Across Chiropteran Lineages

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We integrated short‐read and long‐read RNA‐seq data from cochlear tissues of echolocating and non‐echolocating bats to disentangle transcriptional and post‐transcriptional regulation. Echolocating bats showed neural‐function enrichment among differentially expressed genes, while alternatively spliced genes were linked to epigenetic regulation. Overlaps
